When is the best time to eat?

The best time to eat is right after making a post to the interwebs to puff one's self up. The saliva response is at a maximum when one relishes the thought of others drooling over one's own magnificence.

The best time to eat is when you feel like it . If ya dont feel like eating you wont enjoy it. Just like sex realy.

I never know if it is better to rub one out before or after a ride either. these are tough questions where is coachfergie?
 
Before I would presume would lead to some general positive emotions, unless there is chaffage. Probably a 5 gram drop in weight will have little effect on performance.

But don't let us stop your life long experiment in the area Boing:D

Ive got a cyclo cross race in the morning tomorrow. First cross race in South Australia.

I will get up and have a litre of water and a handful of dates and ride 20k to the start which is at 9am and then eat/drink right after. Its a short race so no need to eat anything during.

best time to eat?

word
 
How did I go in the CX race? Well they put me in A grade and I grabbed 5th. Next time I will use proper tyres though cos I really found it hard on the corners and had to give away lots of time. I used a road tyre on the back and stole a front wheel from my housemates 200$ hybrid bike.

Just dont show the warranty crew cos using a road bike for CX probably voids the lot! lol!

LOTS of fun is CX.

Sir durianrider, i am 68-70kg and Polyarmour called me fat.
I am thinking of loosing some 2-3 kg upper body mass.
What is the best way to do so?
I like sweat and have a really fast metabolism.
I am going into gym only till april (off season), mainly for core exercise (push ups, seat ups, etc)

The best time to eat breakfast at 7:00 to 8:00 between the good people at this time because of the strong appetite.

Its pretty simple, if you want to ride like a roadie then train with roadies. Bodyweight exercises dont put on the muscle like heavy weights do so pushups etc are fine. You also dont need to waste money going to a gym (unless your using it for pick'n up) as bodyweight exercises can be done in the elevator, bus, car, bike etc on the way to work or whilst watching TDF re-runs etc.

NEVER focus on getting lighter, focus on building health and fitness and as a result, our body will adapt. Otherwise its like doing a road race and focusing on being first wheel the whole race and wondering why we get dropped when the real race starts.
