Good.
Sorry for my triple messages, I thought it was just my crappy sky broadband again lol
As regards the anabolic diet type diet, I agree with sickabs and others who’re eating a little higher carbs on the AD on a more long term basis (although, you can’t call it the AD anymore). I think people read into macro-nutrient ratios too much - just don’t go overboard (e.g. extreme restrictions, or too many calories), give your body a stimulus, feed it…that’s it.
Your body’s not going to be confused if you give it 120 carbs instead of 30 lol. You don’t just adapt to one thing or the other, there are no extremes like this; your body uses what it’s got available (some times you can be burning mainly fat, other times your body will use the carbs that are available).
Is your body going to get fat because your macro-nutrient ratio was 45/25/30, instead of 45/30/25??? Of course you wouldn’t eat tubs and tubs of fat/carbs at the same time, but don’t be extreme and think that it’s either one or the other.
Give your body a reason to put all it’s calories to good use (e.g. train often) and you can hardly go wrong.
You’ll learn what your body can tolerate. For example, for me, if I eat High GI carbs late at night, that tends to make my fat gains higher (like many people). Or, for workouts, I can’t cope without some carbs before-hand.
