Carbohydrate intake is particularly influential, with different ideal timings for simple carbohydrates and complex carbohydrates. The best types of carbohydrates to eat during and/or immediately after exercise are simple carbohydrates, whereas complex carbohydrates are ideally consumed a couple of hours before exercise. Complex carbohydrates take longer to digest and enter the bloodstream and can help build glycogen stores.
