Dinner After Swimming?

Hi:) I'm just wondering does it matter to eat dinner before or after swimming? I used to swimming after dinner, but recently I can't arrange my timetable well so I have to swim before dinner(swim 4~5pm and eat at 6~7pm). Will it waste my effort if I have my swim plan like this, that is, gaining weights or something... I heard if you swim before the dinner your body will consume the food very well and then put on some weights. If this is the case, the weight is muscle or fat?

  • I try not to each too much before swimming to prevent tasting it during the swim (nothing like downing a handful of Cool Ranch Doritos and hopping into the pool for sixty minutes). :bolt: If I swim in the morning before work, I'll eat half of a granola bar with some water, and later in the day I don't really worry too much about food before. After the swim I'll have a whey protein shake then eat a regular meal.
