Carbs Post WO, Really Necessary???

[naturalsux]

i find that a steady level of insulin throughout the day will keep you lean and allow your body to really lose body fat. i don't really supplement any fats. i'm guessing i have about 15-20g a day from my lean protein choices. now i have a big problem with eating peanut butter, haha, so i try to limit my use. every few days i will have peanut butter with my protein before bed.

realistically i have about 240g of carbs a day, and a little over 350g of protein. usually all from oats and sweet potatoes, and any lean protein source i can find. i just divide my macros over how ever many meals i plan on eating and then i figure the grams of carbs per carb source and that tells me how much to eat. its all pretty simple. i do the same with my proteins. those numbers don't take into account my PWO because that is always the same, and it doesn't really throw off my weekly allowances because it is usually all the same, just more carbs and protein on those days.

i also do cardio a lot. i love to run sprints and i do them about an hour after a meal, and i will eat soon after doing them. i do morning cardio a few days a week too, for an hour. i enjoy it and i will take caffeine and a baby aspirin before. after cardio i just begin the pro/carb meals again. i also cycle my carbs and i keep them lower then some may recommend, but it is only for one day and i use a moderate level throughout the week, with one large refeed day followed by my lower day, which is never a training day.

i don't know if i said this or not, but my diet doesn't really vary when bulking or cutting. when bulking i will throw in some supplemented fats in the forms of nuts, peanut butter, and flax. i really don't see a problem with combining macros and i'vbe done it for years. i really don't see a need to add any more than about 15g of fat a meal either. so there isn't an issue with combining macros with me. personally i think it is overstated, and overemphasized. furthermore, when bulking i just up my carbs and supplemented fats. i may up protein if on cycle, but that's rare for me.

i figured your carbs were higher. this is you cutting? whats your carbs like when bulking?

also what body type are you? ecto?

i have no idea what body type i am, i don't buy into that stuff. i'm probably a ****.

i really don't have a number available, but i just tried to pull a number i felt was reasonable. i guess they are a tad higher when i think about it, but right now i am losing fat slowly and making progress in the gym. i'm trying to lean out and still gain strength. it has been working for the last 2 weeks really well. i am trying to prime myself for a bulk in the late summer.
