What to eat after evening spin class

[aicabsolut]

The no eating 3 hrs before bed is a myth IMO. You need carbs and protein and electrolytes since you probably sweat a ton spinning indoors (at least I do). How much depends on what you're eating beforehand and when. I think your snack tonight was too light. At least the whole apple with PB. Assuming you ate dinner before class.

If your stomach gets upset by eating before bed, what about trying one of the many recovery drinks out there? Mixes that you add to water, like Clif Recovery?

At least once a week I climb indoors at a climbing gym, then I bike home and am back at 8 at the earliest. I don't like going to bed with a full stomach, but waking up hungry is a lot worse... I usually make a huge salad with boiled potatoes, chick peas or beans, and just about every kind of fresh vegetable we have. Works perfectly for me, the only hassle is all the chopping.

If I can't eat it all the leftovers keep fine til the day after.
