Post wo carbs

[bodybuilder1107]

does anyone have the official calculation for the ammount of pre wo or post wo carbs needed or the range formula or something is there a method?

[mousetraps]

Everybody is different, but I strive for 50g of carbs before, and at least the same after. What are your goals?

[bodybuilder1107]

im cutting right now and im about 240 pounds

[bodybuilder1107]

anyone have a formula????????

[mousetraps]

whats your bodyfat? I think 50g of carbs would cover you.

[brutesinme]

there are many post-workout macro formulas out there. I go with about .8g per kg lean body mass carbs and .4g per kg lean body mass protein

the research is on bb.com it has multiple articles written by pros and fitness calculators that say the same thing, maybee 50 is enough for you but i weigh 240

dude if you wanna stay at 50 then stay im not gonna come on to argue a point that i read about you like 50 so do 50 i like 90 so ill do 90 im sure there is science behind it go to bb.com and look up the articles there are like 10 of them and im sure youll find something there

I still think that calculations should be figured on LBM not what the scales says. When did BF need carbs and protein??

[xnotoriousx]

[Madmax209]

Which carbs do you prefer in your PW shake(meal) - dextrose, maltodextrine, waxy maize, or just oats or...?

calm down. I haven't seen anything yet on any of the websites that talks about the difference between 50 and 90. Have you? We are both looking for science, correct?

Now you said your goal is cutting, correct? I cannot find any tissue studies that show a difference in insulin spike between varying levels. What I do know is that carbs and protein together create a better insulin spike, and I did read a scientific journal stating that even a 6g protein, 36g carb drink after an endurance workout spikes insulin by about 400%. Is there a difference between 50 and 90? I dont know. Maybe when you're cutting there is, that's what it seems we are talking about. I am on week 3 of my diet right now, and I have gained LBM with a 50/50 pwo drink. Let's discuss, don't throw up walls just because I ask for scientific studies- I don't need them to believe something, they usually prove useful though.
