Ethan – I typically workout mid to late morning. My recovery drink is the P90X Recovery Formula. If for some reason I’m traveling and don’t have packets with me, coconut water is an EXCELLENT recovery drink (and very clean as well).

Hey mark, I was wondering. What time of the day do you workout and what does your recovery drink look like?

Thanks

Hey Mark,

you say in your breakfast that you use roughly around 1.5 cups of oatmeal. Is that measurement in “dry” oatmeal? Meaning around about 81 carbs in just oatmeal? I feel like that is quite a large bowl!

Ey Mark, I just wanted to let you know I like how your daily diet is laid out. I pretty much eat the same breakfast as you except I probably add blueberries to my oats. Anyways, I wanted to ask you about the thermogenic fat burners. I did some research and found a source known as Tonalin CLA – which differs from other supplements because Tonalin CLA does not contain any stimulants. What are your thoughts on it? Also, I eat a Clif Bar and a banana like you do before a P90X workout. I was just wondering if that’s what you use or do you use the Clif Bar as a meal replacement?

Roof Helmet – Sugar isn’t necessarily the enemy in energy bars, but rather the FORM of the sugar. If you get a good, clean bar (like Organic Food Bar, or Green’s Plus) you are still getting sugar, but it comes in its natural form. Where you need to be careful is when sugar is added (or refined). Fructose, for example, is the form you would find it in fruit.

One tip – always read the labels….the more ingredients you can’t pronounce the name of, the more its processed (and less healthy).

Interesting article

There’s nothing like being lean. In today’s world, we have toworkout more often and throw off our unhealthy diet habits. It’s not that hard. You only have to stick to a diet program and continue until you reach your goals.

Thank you very much for sharing this with your us.

Lawrence – I’ve traditionally gone with whichever brand was the least expensive when it came to the Creatine Ethyl Ester. I’ve been off creatine now for about 8 months…..no real reason as to why, just did a re-evaluation of my supplements, and it was something that I cut (since I get some in the Recovery Formula)

I’m glad you like the Dymatize too……big fan myself.

Mark,
First off I’d like to say “great job!”, I have seen your before and after photos and I am currently in the midst of my first round of P90X+ and you’re literally an inspiration, man. I only had two questions regarding the Creatine Ethyl Ester powder that you take, is there a tip you could give me on what brand you suggest or recommend for me to use because I’ve seen a ton of products and for some reason I’m having a tough time finding reviews for certain brands. Second question, you’re taking it with breakfast so you’re taking it prior to working out opposed to after, or do you also take it following the workout?
Thanks in advance, man and keep bringing it!
P.S. – Dymatize Elite gets two thumbs up!!
