    i think you should be concerned with why your carbs are only being used in a meal before your workouts. i would expect some serious size loss. glycogen is going to be TAPPED, and your workouts will be catabolic to your muscle tissue. you should definitely be using more carbs.

    Okay Novastep, I'm a bit confused and I'm hoping you can explain something to me or point me to a thread where this has been addressed. I feel like I'm in a catch 22. I want to drop bf%. I hear that in order to burn fat you have to burn the carbs first. Therefor, min carbs = less activitity to burn fat. To take in a lot of carbs seems counterproductive especially if I'm getting an energy source with my clen. However, if I don't take in enough carbs I risk lossing LBM. So if I want to lose weight, I don't need carbs, but if I want to keep my LBM I need carbs. How do people cut like this? I'm so confused. HELP!!! I don't just like people telling me do something, I like to know why it works so I can make sense of it. I'm a smart guy so don't hold back! THanks
