Eating before bed to grow! last meal of the day. do you?

[aesthetix123]

how many of you guys on here while bulking have a meal before bedtime? im not talking about dinner im talking about another meal after dinner before you go to sleep?

lets say an average night sleep is 8 hours or so for a grown adult.

what do you guys feed your body before bed to fuel it for 8 hours while trying to grow?

and why did you choose those foods?

12 Oz. Cottage cheese. Slow digesting protien (casein). And a few hard boiled eggs.

I always fix a casein shake before bed only because it fast, and easy. Foods best, but don't like the prep time

You do not need to "fuel" your body to grow for the 8hrs or so you're asleep. Besides, a typical mixed meal will take anywhere from 4-6hrs or possibly longer to fully digest.

eggs with chicken,steak or both or a double stack turkey burger with pepperjack

Hey Bradly - I think your avatar is getting gang raped here ...

Cottage cheese or egg whites

An its cottage cheese for the win lol. That is the best before bed along with casien because they are slow digesting protiens that stick with you for the long hual of sleeping.

Greek yogurt

There's no reason to have a big meal right before bed unless you haven't gotten all you're food in for the day.

I usually have some Greek yogurt and a casein shake as my last meal/snack.

Seems like cottage cheese and eggs Are a common winner in this topic, Do you guys aim to get in a slower digesting carb with the above or just CC and eggs? For protein n fats

You really need to research more on nutrition. Slow digesting carbs/GI index is only important for diabetics and not even so much then.

250g of cottage cheese with walnuts and a little honey. Wake up halfway through the night and smash a shake as well.

I think many would argue that the benefit of uninterrupted sleep would greatly outweigh drinking a protein shake in the middle of the night
