What do you consider to be "High" Protein - and what do you like as your protein source?
Also what kind of increase do you try to get to in carb loading... 10%, 20, more?
Pat - I think your right - what ever we call it, I have worked the muscles well and they are looking for a little down time. I'm sure I can be doing some different things to insure that their recovery goes better. Perhaps loading up on Carbs and Protein before a planned workout and making sure I replenish the store after I'm done. Finding that balance is the key and the struggle. I just need time to figure it out - ask others about how the do it and have at it.
