    Same with hilly , post is always very easy to digest as body just laps it up

    But if I train without carbs I feel bad, no energy. And after if I take iso and then protein meal with veggies I don’t feel tired. Is possible change before yes and after prot plus veggies?

    I agree with the guys above it’ll be the source causing the issue rather than all carbs being an issue. Each person is different and some people do have to push harder but honestly with the reaction your getting sounds like it’s something not quite agreeing with you. Have you also looked into any sweetners or diet additions your having that could be causing this also

    Potatoes, rice not feel good. Oatmeal at breakfast before train feels great. But something make me feel terrible is iso plus peanut butter. Super bloated. Could be possible?

    Like Ryan says it could simply be the carb sources you’re using or another macro source for that matter if you’re experiencing bloating after eating.

    If it’s something that you think is always there, it could be caused by something else.

    If it’s food related you will need to eliminate things one at a time to find the culprit.

    Perhaps could be the potatoes, or the rice, because oatmeal before train makes me feel good.
    But another think makes me feel terrible is the iso protein and the peanut butter. Could be possible???

    Hey,

    It could be the carb source causing the bloat, can you post your diet up and recent pics. Carb cycling is an effective diet strategy but every one is different and there are many ways to get lean.

    The only carbs I eat are oatmeal, brown rice or potatoes. If I eat oatmeal before train( breakfast) I feel fine. But after train rice or potatoes makes me feel bloated.
    And something makes me too much bloated are iso protein.

    Hi mister, I come from Spain and sometimes it’s difficult to me understand the text. Now you eliminate the carbs for the last meal, why?, because you begin the preparation for competition. Thanks so much.

    Adding more carbs will mean more water being drawn into your muscles, so yeah your condition will be blurred and you’ll appear softer. You’ll also be adding some bodyfat as you get out of a deficit.

    My question is why do you want to maintain your stage look during an off season? The focus now should be on making improvements ready for the next time you step on stage. This means increasing food, which will in turn help to improve performance, improve strength and build new tissue as a result.

    If you’re serious about competing and want to continue to progress, how you look the rest of the time is insignificant and all part of the process and the bigger picture, so unless your physique is important for work reasons or you do this just for fun I would try to switch your mindset.

    I’m agree with you. The reason to be ripped its why you look fantastic with all those veins. But it’s true that there is not progress. Thanks so much.

    That’s highly indvidual between people, Also depends on how many day you deloaded and how empty your glycogen reserves are.

    Normally you try to empty your glycogen deposit, so with a good one day full of good carbs perhaps will be enough.[/quote]
    Not really also depends how much muscle you carry , I would always need 2-3 days with massive amounts of carbs when we deloaded for a week prior.[/quote]
    Ok. And deload means NO CARBS CERO ?. or some .[/quote]

    I think your still missing the point bud.

    There is no 1 answer.

    Some like 0

    Some need 0

    Some need 50-100

    Some don’t deplete

    Some load 1 day

    Some 3

    Some dont

    Science says we can fully load in 12-24 hours I believe

    this is very individual and you can´t generalize that!

    Ok. But you will be agree with me that sometimes 2 or 3 days are much because the glycogen capacity is not so big.

    There’s no set rules. It’s very much individual. Bigger bodies may need filling up more for example. It also depends how depleted you are, if you’re truly in stage condition, what your diet has been like throughout your prep and how you’ve approached refeeds. It’s usually wise to have a practice run a few weeks out to see what works best for you and how many carbs you can take to get the best look.

    Some don’t even need to deplete and load and look better just coasting in with what they’ve been doing in the last few weeks.
