    italian diet

    I have grown up eating alot of pasta and Italian dishes, how does pasta work into an anabolic diet?
    I would assume its more apropiate for a bulking...

    yes typically bulking....but i would say it all depends on timing and portion sizes, if you really must have some pasta it would be best post or preworkout, and with some protein mixture in there to make it a pro/carb meal...but imo better carbs can be used...i would try to get some whole wheat pasta PPWO and a nice homemade tomato sauce without sugar added or olive oil added, and maybe a chicken breast...there you go....italian i guess

    pizza is too fatty.
    if you like pasta try spaghetti cooked al dente: they won't peak your insulin levels
