    pro/carb pre workout?

    The other day when I posted my diet some said I should have a pro/carb meal preworkout. It ended up being whey and oats. I thought that carbs should be kept for early AM and pwo (& ppwo) only?

    i think it depends on the person, when i cut, i carb cycle, and on my low days, iget no more than 60gm ED.. and i workout 5days and do cardio 4.. without any problems and with little or no strenght loss
