Post workout intake while dieting...what works for you?

[exbeanpole]

So what do you guys typically like to have following a workout while cutting fat? A whey isolate shake, a high protien low carb meal, all protien no carbs?

All macros are still accounted for. I've never dieted for a show but speaking to my trainer and he does and what is done is a meal and BCAAS. BCAAs are excellent for lower calories and he said that's what helps him.

I would save a good portion of my carbs for post workout

This what I've been doing. Probably about 50% of my carbs for the day come post workout 25% at breakfast and the remaining 25% spread out through the rest of the day.

I always had to have a cup of veggies before and immediately after training when I was dieting. I needed them befoee just to get through my workout

A little something to fill the void, crush those empty stomach cramps! Good idea bro!

Definitely some egg whites in the post workout meal (following they whey and simple carb shake). Love the full feeling I get from them.
