uhhh, yeah it's part of your diet, if you can take it down earlyier, because thats pretty late to be taken down some carbs, just make you PWO a pro/fat meal or shake then have your normale ppwo meal a few hours later
Damn chest didnt realize that your pwo was so late, I dunno about carbs before bed. Everyone I have asked told me to go no carbs before bed. Anyone have opinionsQuote:

4. 8 oz brisket
green veggies
5. 6 oz yogurt or 1/2 oats? *changed to pro/carb*
2 scoops whey
6. Workout (I workout really late)
Pwo shake 40g protein 80g dextrose (looking for maltidextrin)
7. 2 chicken breasts *changed to pro/fat*
flax
8. 2 tbsps natty pb
2 scoops whey
is flax 2 times a day too much??
Oh and i removed the brown rice at meal #7 and replaced with flax.
seems good id say no its not too much flax but dont forget u need some sat fat maybe add in some red meat instead of all the chicken for a pro/fat...in meal 5 ditch the yogurt and just have the shake and flax or another lean protein source
I have brisket at meal 4..is that good?Quote:

I just wanna bump this because I finally found something on non-training days after looking through about 50 threads.

I am bulking, so I do not worry about counting carbs, counting cals, mixing GOOD FATS with GOOD CARBS, etc, so most of my meals are p/f/c with the exception of prebed - usually pro and fats only.......sure I nix the PW shake, but my body could use the day off from the sugar surge anyways....lol
