So I have been following a bunch of Chris aceto's athletes and he has them doing one or two chocolate chip muffins before training. Can some tell me why he is having them eating muffins 5-4 weeks out from the Arnolds? And why muffins?

I would assume it's because of a carb source. Before lifting u want carbs (as u know).
I don't have a clue y he would do that 4 weeks out.
I will make an assumption its pre workout carb meal, few other things to consider, what did the other meals leading up to this meal look like (i would guess on the lower carb side)? Whats their post work out meal? These guys are top level athletes with genetics greater then most of us, they will be chemically enhanced, i would also guess insulin is part of this strategy as well. Most people can get away with just about anything in pre & post work out meals, the body will absorb the required nutrients, at the end of the day all carbs are broken down to glucose in the body and used in the energy cycle.
One thing i would like to add i would think it would be a specific muffin with specific fat content, as a lot of muffins have high level of fat content and its not what you would want for a post insulin shot. Does it mention what where the muffin is from? I often have nutrtigrain bar or two pre training or sometimes even hard candy while training. Its calculated amount to fit the nutrient requirements for the specific meal.
Im going to assume that all of there other meals are pretty low carbs. Just figured there was something behind his madness. If ur on Instagram type in hashtag #teamaceto and u will see some of his athletes having muffins pre training. Chris is a nutrition guru so I just figured it was something special. Lol... As far as I know their normal muffins.Quote:

Question is: what's in the muffin?
They are fat free muffins for whatever that's worth
There you have it, high carb meal with insulin pre work out for improved pump and recovery. more os less back loading with all other meals low carbs and strategic placement of carbs for maximum results and muscle retention...

Its a local body builder lives 30 minutes away form me and actually trains one of my friend, uses same muffin trick with him...LOL...nothing magical just carbs with fats pre training...its all about micros distribution, its right around the training and negative impact will be negligible at best...plus Regan is extremely genetically gifted athlete i beleive hes only 23 with this level of development. Also he is doing Arnolds Amateurs...just FYI...
...and he is sponsored by same company my wife and i used to be sponsored by for number of years...
and he works with aceto as wellQuote:

Now since he is having a muffin with carbs and fats insulin probably wouldn't be in his protocol at this moment then right. Yeah I knew he was doing the Arnold classics I was just being lazy in writing it lmao. Plus Jose Raymond does the same thing with a couple of other pros. Just figured it was weird why a muffin would be used instead of something else lmao. Thanks for the insight big mikeQuote:
