    high gi carbs before training...?

    ok im trying to stay very lean for the summer and all but i was wondering if having high GI carb like a white potatoe before a workout to help with a pump and more energy???

    here's my current diet:

    1: 50g pro-1/2shake and 4oz chicken breast/50g carb-oats
    2: 50g pro-8oz chicken breast/ 50g carb-white potatoe
    3: 50g pro-8oz chicken breast/1 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
    workout about 1.5hours after meal 3
    4: PWO 50g shake/ 50g dextrose
    5: 50g pro-8oz chicken breast/50g of oats6: 50g pro- 2 cans of tuna
    6: 50g pro-2 cans of tuna/1 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
    should i also put a high GI carb in the PPWO even though im still leaning up??? will the high GI carb before and after make me start to store fat easier?)

    im approx 175lbs...

    May lead you to crash.

    Opt for a yam or a bowl of oatmeal instead.
