    I don't understand how most people have trouble listening to their bodies.

    I'm not an expert but I've been reading alot and currently I do the following:

    1.5-2 hours before Training: Slow burning carbohydrate (To provide a constant energy release over duration of exercise) and some protein (To assist muscle recovery after breakdown of muscle during workout)

    Examples:

    1) Porridge/Oatmeal and a boiled egg.(Morning)
    2) Chicken Breast and brown rice (Daytime)

    Directly after Workout: One scoop of Maximuscle supplement Cyclone (Contains Protein, Creatine, Dextrose, Glutamine and others) mixed with skimmed milk. Because it's a shake the body digests it quicker than a solid meal.

    1.5 - 2 hours after training:

    Another Protein and Carb meal.

    Examples:

    1) Salmon, potato, veg.
    2) Multi fruit smoothie with protein supplement.

    it depends what 'after training' means. I heard somewhere that one should do jogging or cardio after resistance training, as resistance training burns the sugar and then the cardio burns the fat. But I don't know, maybe you lose muscle by doing cardio after intense resistance training.

    No and not really.
    Strength training should be done in different sessions or followed by short intense "cardio", not anything long.

    Some fitness article. And I definitely make sense.
    Apparently the strength training uses the fuel in your system, and after you do cardio to burn excess fat, which is used by the body only when it has no sugar left to burn. I'm no expert but it sounds like it could be logical.

    I just don't want to end up losing muscle mass is all. Is this a risk?
