My hands tremble, and I feel kinda nervy inside. I'm not sure if it is my blood sugar going crazy or what. I try hard to listen to my body so to speak, and I have noticed that I crave fruit, peanut butter, and juices when this happens. I have been hitting the nutritional goals per; Protein, carbs, and fat...At least within 10% either way, but this has only been over the last two weeks....Any suggestions on a pre-workout supplement and post workout supplement that might help...

I asked a nurse friend of mine, and she thought the things that I was eating before the workout should be ate after the workout, and that I am not eating enough...I am going to change some things around, and see what happens..I think my blood sugar levels was going crazy...

The last two weeks have been crazy at work; 4 on 4 off 4 on. So, I was working out between 11-3 instead of my usual 5:00pm...This week is going to be crazy, and I'm not sure if I will be able to workout at all; looks like 12-14 hour days except for Thursday...I am about 8 weeks in to this program; Damn, I was just noticing some changes...I will take this week off the whole lifting bit; eat and grow so to speak...Back at it next Monday or Tuesday....
