Fasted/workout confused
Hey fitfam..
got a question on fasted workout/cardio!! I do fasted workout on days I don't have college which is Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, I drink coffee for pre-workout and workout as hard as I can, then abs and maybe 10 min 2% incline walk but main question is how long can you go on fasted until you burn muscle or know your starting to burn muscle??? Would appreciate the feed back.
Stats:
19 old
6'1
168lbs
Bf%-- tanita electrode scale says 8%
Lift Monday through Saturday, Sunday is rest day..

I would say to a small degree...immediatly! If your really trying to figure out is at what point have you burned through your other fuel sources and you are relying on muscle alone...remember that muscle is essentially the bodies last source after glucose stores and fat!

If ur trying to get that "carry over" from ur cardio, it isn't enough to worry about. I'd eat with 30 minutes or so

Dude, ur bf is low enough to where you should be bulking. Eat clean foods 500 above ur tdee and put on some lean mass!!! When u get to about 15%. Cut a lil bit then get back on the big train! Get above where u want to b then cut down to where ur a ripped what u wanna be!

U could b at 6% bf right now and u wouldn't look any better. And I don't mean that insultingly. But u need separation between muscles to let the low bf shine. They work synergistically together. Super low bf and no muscle mass, u just look like a twig. A lot of muscle mass and high bf, u look like a twinky! U have to find common ground and make them work together to achieve a good physique. Ball out those shoulders a lil bit and it will make ur arms look bigger because there is separation. It doesn't go shoulder arm. U can tell where one ends and the other begins. And trying to do both (I've been trying as a challenge to myself) is a pain in the d1ck! U lose motivation because progress is sooooooo slow! One or the other big guy, just don't let the bf out of control. Keep it within striking distance.

152 x 15 = 2280 (maintenance cals) + 500 = 2*** for bulkinh

228-300g pro. Which is about 32-43%. Go with 40%. So:
2*** x .40 = 1112 cals/4 cals per gram of protein= 278g protein
So the other 60% of ur cals need to be carbs and fat. That really depends on how ur body handles carbs or fat.

I'm on a 45/10/45 bulk right now and it's treating me pretty good. Just choose good fats, no trans fat. High omegas, low cholesterol, etc.
Calipers suck! They can change within 5 minutes.

Ok thanks man ya I'll try an probably do low carbs now need to figure out how to implement the into foods is what I don't get like the carbs and fats ..
So I know for my protein is 278g you did 2***x.40 and got 278g which is {40%} and don't need to go over that now how do you figure my carbs and fats you said your is 10g what's tht like what would be a good split for me for carbs and fats and how do your figure it up
I edited this ok I'll do what you said 40protein/20carbs/35fats but what I need help with is hats 20g carbs = out too and fats??Last edited by beefy_bod; 02-21-2013 at 11:02 PM.

4cal/g carb
9cal/g fat
If u do 25%carbs
2***cal x 25%carbs = 695cal worth of carbs
695cal / 4cal/g = 173.75g of carbs a day
Got it?

Whether u burn muscle in the long run is going to be influenced mainly by one thing.... Diet... And your macro intake...
