While working out on a Schwinn 431 Elliptical Trainer my main concern is getting the most out of my workout. With it’s variety of workout programs, the bi-directional pedaling action which allows you pedal forward or backward depending on the targeted muscle groups and the smoothness and quietness of this elliptical trainer it is easy just to focus on taking advantage of all it’ s features. There is something else you will need during your workout and that is energy.

The energy you get from working out comes from glycogen, a substance that is stored in the body. If you workout an hour or less, anything you eat right before a workout really doesn’t have enough time to get into the form of glycogen. The most important time to eat is after a workout, when the muscles are depleted of fuel and hungriest for nourishment and replenishment. After a workout you need carbohydrates for glycogen replacement and some protein for muscle growth and repair.
