I do most of my skill training at night. I don't like to eat less than 2
hours before training, so I usually eat after practice. On an early night,
this may be around 8:00pm, but on the nights with later classes, that
go until 9:00pm, this means after changing, going home, etc., I'm
usually eating around 10:00pm. Is this bad?
Due to my work schedule, I can't really see myself eating before
practice, so if this is bad, how can I make it less bad?
I personally think in the grand scheme of things that eating late like this is not a particulalrly bad thing, providing you're not going to bed feeling bloated and thus unable to sleep. How much and what you eat over the course of a day is going to have a greater impact than when you ate it IMO, (within reason - cramming all your calories in one sitting may not be very clever).
I home from the gym late. Like 11 or 12 most of the time. I usually try and eat the entire dinner that my family has made and then be in bed in like 2 hours.
Needless to say it usually doesnt go so well. I have now started switching to a blended protein shake as my meal when I get home. I now eat last nights dinner the next morning as a big powerful ass breakfast. Its only been a few days but Im confident it's the better solution.
