Hey Joe,

Fruits of course have health benefit, but *depending on the fruit* may not be terribly calorically dense. A high level bodybuilder (think Jordan Peters here, as an excellent example) is not going to be able to get in his desired peri-workout carbohydrate consumption terribly easily by eating fruit (alone).

(As a secondary note, if he ere to try to do this, he could end up eating something like a dozen oranges or another fruit with high free radical quenching ability, which can impair training adaptations, e.g., if folks are megadosing things like vitamin C.)

Great, thanks Dr S. I was more thinking about a few hundred calorie worth of raisins sprinkled on my pre-bed oats. Lol

Was part of one of Joes epic threads!!

The idea of avoiding ibuprofen around workout was dismissed too

Good memories of those crazy threads, lol. Yes I said it's probably a good idea to avoid NSAID's around training and they thought I was crazy
