Right now I am eating a both a pre-workout and a post-workout shake. But I usually lift just after lunch or dinner. Since my lunch/dinners are like 1200 calories each (2chicken breasts/2cups veggies/1cup rice/3 1/2 oz peanuts) would it make more sense to just eliminate the pre-workout shake and double the calories in the post-workout shake?
I feel like I can't lift at convenient times just because lunch or dinner is coming up and I would have to wait another 2 hours after lunch/dinner to drink my pre-workout shake or else it would be too many calories all at once.
If I did this, my diet would consist of 4 meals, is that bad? Or I guess I could eat the peanuts as a snack between meals. That's another option, and it would make 6 meals.
