The importance of carbohydrates for endurance and strength
Carbohydrates are the fuel that your body uses while you are performing any type of endurance or strength training. If you want to last longer during a run or want to build up your muscles, then a low-carb diet is not the way to go. Carbohydrates need to be eaten in moderation though, and all processed and refined carbs should be avoided. Good carbs take longer for your body to completely absorb, meaning you will have more energy for longer amounts of time.
The way your body stores carbohydrates is by storing it in glucose form. When the body is in need of energy during times of intensive workouts or long runs, the body will use the energy you have stored. If you do not have a sufficient amount of carbs in your body, then your muscles will fail to work and you will be unable to go on. This is the main reason people get tired so fast during workouts, there just isn’t enough fuel in their bodies. The best time to eat carbohydrates for recovery of lost glucose is soon after you have finished working out, an hour being a good time.
How many carbohydrates do you need a day? Every body is different, so there are many factors that affect the amount. People use the method of multiplying their body weight by three, which gives you a decent estimate of the carbohydrates your body needs in grams. Another method people use is to eat roughly sixty percent of your calories as in carbs, but that all depends on the person. In order to get the most out of carbs, you need to eat the right sources. Foods that contain the good carbs, also called complex or unrefined carbs, are starchy vegetables, whole grain breads, baked sweet potatoes, and healthy cereals. Some of the processed foods that should be avoided are pasta, white bread, and pastries.
To get the absolute best out of carbohydrates, you need to know exactly how many you need based on your body type, habits, behaviors, workout routines, and other factors that may affect your intake. I will know exactly what you need, and can also determine the best types of exercises that best suits your wants and needs. On top of that, they can come up with a dietary plan that consists of more than just carbs, but also healthy foods that can maximize muscle growth or stamina. Nonetheless, eating a diet containing unrefined carbs, as well as drinking plenty of water, will surely maximize the results from your endurance and strength training workouts.

#1 Eat the right things
Cut all fried foods from your diet and replace them with healthy, delicious grilled lean meats. If you’re craving a snack, grab almonds or other lightly salted nuts. They are filled with proteins which tricks your body to feeling more full. Also, don’t cut carbs entirely, but opt for whole grain wheat and pasta.
#2 Don’t Starve Yourself
Cutting your calories by itself is not the way to go. Doing so could make you feel fatigued and irritable. It could also do a number on your face as well. Starving yourself can make your hair look brittle, your skin sallow, and your nails fragile. Overall trying to lose weight via extreme caloric restriction just isn’t healthy or particularly effective.

FAQS:
A: Joe’s program provides the most rapid and efficient results through superior training techniques, motivation and nutritional management.
1: Most trainers train their clients the same way that they train themselves without any thought given to the uniqueness of their client’s body. Their thinking is “if it works for me, it”ll work for you.”
This is not a “cookie-cutter” program. Each client receives a completely custom-designed workout and nutritional program.
2: Most trainers have their clients perform the same workout every time, over and over again, for months or even years. My clients enjoy an ever-evolving workout that changes as their bodies and needs change.
We believe in adapting and customizing each workout program to the needs, desires and abilities of each individual client.
We are very concerned to teach excellent exercise form and posture; this creates a balanced, athletic and attractive physique. An additional benefit of this approach is that it prevents injury.
Flexibility training is also part of the program it reduces risk of injury, increases positive circulation, optimizes nerve function, and improves the client’s sense of well being.
Our clients improve quickly and safely.
