N as much info on carb timing as you can give, espicaly in relation to bulking.
ty!
hey man =D
as far as carb timing goes for bulking here's the best idea:
lets say you're hitting a 300g / carb day...
meal 1 - you want about 30g complex carbs (oatmeal or whole grains) and 20-30g simple sugar carbs (fruit/fruit juice).
meal 2 - continue with 50g whole grains.
meal 3 - (PRE-WORKOUT meal) 30g whole grains 20-30g simple sugar (fruit/fruit juice/natural sugar...not HFCS aka high fructose corn syrup).
[NOTE - if workout is longer than 2 hours, sip flat coke or eat some rolls while lifting to keep carbs up and prevent catabolism]
meal 4 - (POST-WORKOUT sugar) IMMEDIATELY INTAKE 20-30g simple sugar after a workout to spike insulin to achieve better protein synthesis and then continue with 80g whole grains/complex carbs as part of post-workout meal.
meal 5 - 50g complex carbs
meal 6 - little to no carbs before bedtime
hope that helps bro!
