@ DFP - Thanks for the offer, but I'm all set for the winter of iron-chucking. Got a few imbalances to sort out first - so my "quality" will greatly improve thereafter.
I'm between the Uni gym and the new 24hr gym in the city centre. Good for a few 5am starts.
@Jayloo - do a food diary for a week? Record foods and liquids - and how you feel after certain foods. On the days where you feel strong - make a note of what you consumed.
This glycogen window as BMMF mentioned (and i'm sure you aware of) is sooo important to recovery. I can't stomach much food after training, commuting etc, but i force myself to, and believe me, it does wonders for replenishment - but also for curbing that "i'm gonna eat everything" rage i get later on.....
