Fruit or grains?
Does having all carbs from fruits affect body composition/energy levels? I prefer fruit as my main source of carbs to things like rice and sweet potatoes and am wondering if its a viable option to eat around 150g from fruit alone.

I did it for almost a year when I first started training. Dropping all the wheat carbs I was eating made me feel great, I leaned out while gaining a lot of strength. I was in the newbie phase though, I kinda hit a point where I couldn't keep upping the weight and intensity.
I've been adding rice & sweet potato carbs the last six weeks, dropping my fat intake to compensate. Starting to feel like it's what I needed to keep progressing.
If you're still newbie, even intermediate I'd say go for it, and see how you feel. I enjoyed it while it was working for me.

It's special for everyone. I prefer rice, wheat, oats, green apples & pomelos. Keep track of your carbs.

I always take away all fruits when cutting, and eat away when bulking.

The fruits will spike your energy were the complex carbs will give you longer sustained energy. I have fruit in the morning with breakfast alongside another complex carb to break the fast. Then I have complex carbs for the rest of the day with my meals

^^^ very similar if not the same... I eat my fruits in an as soon as I wake up(for a fast energy source like Bio stated) and also some complex carbs... Then I hit the gym early am... Maybe another piece of fruit after but usually just complex carbs the rest of day as well!
