weird work out schdule
So i got a question. if i wake up in the morning around 10am and dont get off work till 830 and dont make it to the gym by 930 and i go to bed usually around 1-2am when should i stop eating my carbs? should my last carb meal be my pre work out about 60 minutes before the Gym? i have never done a cutting diet before and i am really lost guys. I have been reading alot of what Gbrice75 has been telling another guy Frawnz but my schdule is differant than his. I can give you an example of what i will be eating and around what times but i am still lost. any info would be greatly appreciated. BTW i an on TRT at 250mg Test E a week.

I'd have 50g of carbs and 40g of protein after your workout, times not optimal but you need it after your WO IMO regardless of cutting, just work it into your total intake for the day.

Personally, my last carb meal is preworkout and it's always 1 scoop ISO + a banana. Then after workout i get lean meat + veggies and later on, before bed, 125GR of cottage 1% (I don't consider that it's eating carbs since it's only 6gr...).
As you can imagine, i am also on a cutting diet and workout late half of the time. I get my preworkout meal (ISO + banana) around 6PM then i get my preworkout (2 scoops Jack3D) an hour later and I'm off to the gym. Around 8:30PM i get a postworkout ISO scoop and about an hour later, lean meat + veggies. Around midnight i get my cottage and that's it.
Personally, I'm afraid to eat carbs after workout so late at night which is why i only get a PWO ISO shake but i add glutamine to replenishing low glycogen stores in my muscles.Last edited by King Antichrist; 08-16-2010 at 12:12 AM.

Why the carbs postworkout instead of preworkout?

Not instead of, but in addition to. You definitely need to carbs pre-workout to fuel your workout. I'm just saying I would personally add about 25-30g PWO as well.

why are so many ppl telling me to leave out the carbs then? The only carbs i really take in are the ones from the oats, veggi and maybe 1 yam a day and that it. The places where u told me to add carbs can i just always use oats?

Ok, if keeping your carb intake relatively low is your goal, I think we can help with that.
Keep the oats in meal 1, you'll need some energy just to get the day going. At 2:30 I suggested a complex carb above; forget it and eat a protein/fat meal. I would take the yam out of the 4:30 meal and move into your 6:30 meal. Then for your pre-workout meal, more complex carbs. Finally, a small amount of carbs PWO.
This way we're basing your carb intake around your workout (with the exception of meal 1) and minimizing carbs the rest of the day when you are more sedentary.
I hope that helps. As for adding carbs, yes you could always use oats if you want to. It's better to eat a variety of different foods for their unique health benefits, but there's nothing wrong with using oats as the majority of your carb source. I do it myself pretty often.

the 230 one i might be doing both some vegi and nuts or if i dont like i have room prob just do like you said protein/fat. Do you think that there is too much whole food in there? I see some ppl sdiets where they do something light rather than a full meal. I meen theres 8 meals there lol

i not actually asking anyone to do the work for me and as i said in the begining i dont have the macros. the advice i have been getting is more or less a questimate of the food choices such as fat, carbs protein in coralation to the times i will be eating and work out time. This is not my first rodeo in dieting just first time in cutting. but yeah i DL a app on my android but work has been busy today and havnt got enough time in between to get excat macros. but when i do ib be glad if you could stear me in the right direct. Gbrice75 is already doing a pretty good job in guiding me

Can you elaborate on this pls... I'm on a cutting diet ans already lost around 35 pounds in the last few months. And that is without taking any carbs Postworkout. And from what my trainer said, the way my diet is planned (Carbs preworkout only) i am not loosing any muscles mass.
Note that i get my preworkout carbs about 1hour before i hit the gym. Then, when im out the gym (around 7h30pm) i get a prots shake. And then an hour later im eating souper. It's already late when i eat souper (i go to bed at 10h30pm) so i guess thats why i dont get to eat carbs.
Ps: my goal is to reach single digit BF%. Currently at 14-15%.
Thanks and sorry for asking a question in your thread m8 but i need to know why you guys recommend carbs pwo!

That's what i thought as well. I just spent like an hour and a half looking for pre and post workout nutrition on google and it seems it's 50-50 for eating carbs after your workout. But all seems to agree that some sort of carbs must be taken PREWORKOUT.
"Complex carbohydrates in your pre-workout meal will help ensure you have adequate energy levels for your workout. Another practice to consider is consuming simple carbohydrates (fruits, fruit juices) and/or protein in a quick drink 15 to 30 minutes previous to the workout to provide the body with an immediate energy source."
That make sense.
Again, sorry for the thread jacking heh
Back on topic : TRT2010, have you got those macros sorted?

I am far from an expert but everything I have read seems to point to PWO carbs as a good idea for everyone. When your body sucks up carbs like a sponge you should really take advantage of that. Even Milos Sarcev, in his seminar in the stickies, says he lets his dieting athletes eat food like oatmeal cookies after they lift. He does not mention the time but when I had to lift after school (around 6 p.m.) I wouldn't get home until around 8 p.m. and I would eat a big banana, four pieces of ezekiel bread, and two can of tuna. The bread was probably too slow digesting, and something like gatorade or angel food cake would have been better to replenish my glycogen.
