I would say it depends how intense your cardio sessions are. If it’s low intensity cardio you don’t need carbs aftwards.
If you are still gaining weight and strength you don’t nedd to add extra calories. I would add them when everything is maxed out

I would say for maximum results (recovery, muscle growth, etc) yes. It’s not a must but if you want to get the max out of your abilities you need carbs after your workout. I would say at least 0,5g per kg bodyweight

I prefer not to use the pads. I love it either first in the session for pre exhausting the lats or last to stretch and open up the lats.

Rest day today. Switched the stationary bike for walking outside in the morning for 45min. It clears my mind and feels great to mix things up a little. Can’t wait to hit legs tomorrow.

Built back up some confidence slowly and my try to go higher in reps and hit failure with lighter weight. That helped me a lot.

I think clean “bulk” is always a better choice because you can calculate everything and fat gain should be minimal. Dirty bulk stresses your digestive system to much from my point of view and the more useless water and fat you carry on your body your performance in training will be restricted!

Rest day for me today! Feeling really curshed after the last two days! Just 50min of cardio in the morning. Want to do a pull session tomorrow and feel ready to attack the weights again! Rest days are the worst for me mentally. I’m struggeling all day with a feeling of hunger and tiredness but that tells me that me prep is working!

Like all others said 100g of rice should have around 80g of carbs! All foods have differnet amount of carbs! e.g. 100g of rice equal 500g of potatoe for your carb intake!

Especially the ones that are not genetically gifted because almost everybody can coach a genetik freak but to get the most out of someone with bad genetics is an art!
Does their philosophy fit mine is very important too.
Do I trust them!
