precision nutrition
In the 7 habits, it says that you can eat fruits and veg carbs with every meal and other carbs during and pwo.
It might be a stupid question but is potato allowed cus its a vegetable, so are you allowed baked, boiled, mash potatoes with every meals?

No. It has a pretty high GI rating. You can have it PWO though.

Huh?? No longer need energy after a workout? Whatchoo talkin bout, Willis? Potatoes are a good PWO meal component for replenishing glycogen stores. Though a lower GI food like wild rice might be better.
And since when are potatoes a vegetable??? |

Well, obviously you need to replenish and restore, but not for short-term performance. Guess that was poorly stated. |

A potato immediately pre-WO won't do anything that vegetables and lean meats can't. |

Don't forget the good non-leafy veggies like broccoli, asparagus, green beans, peas, and the like. __________________
