If you’re bulking, I heard .4 g protein/kg bodyweight and .8 g carb/kg bodyweight is a good mixture for PWO. Does Berardi recommend that this get split in 1/2, 1/2 during the workout and 1/2 after the workout?

I have excellent insulin sensitivity, so I’ve modeled my diet to around 50/35/15 (carb/pro/fat) as suggested by the doc, but most of the “anytime” meals are lower on the carb side, making it impossible to make my carb count unless I include more “PW” meals. My food plan involves 3 PW meals, a PWO, 2 anytime meals, like so:
930a: berry shake (PW)
noon: bulker’s omelette (anytime)
230p: chicken and chickpeas (anytime)
530p (pre-WO): basic oatmeal (PW)
630-730p: PWO drink
9p: tex-mex chicken and rice (PW)
Sound good?
Yeah he mentioned in a recent article/interview for precision nutrition that some people simply need to make modifications to the original plan.
I still wouldnt do a P&C before a workout since your blood sugar will rise and fall, where as P&F is stable.
I would suggest reading more of his articles such as appetite for construction or Massive Eating, because even though you have the recipes down, you need to understand the theory behind it.
If Possible have two PWO meals that contain carbs. Or have two breakfasts. Starting at 9 and ending at 9 seems strange, are you sleeping 12 hours??
Either add a meal/snack, or try eating at 8:00 after the workout and then again at 10? that way you get two PWO carb meals in.
Definitely look over the articles about why P&F before training is good- (mentioned above)
Thanks for the info, I’ll switch the oatmeal w/ the omelette (the omelette is very much P+F). I usually go to bed around 1, but that’s my 6 meals for the day, and that last meal is only 1.5 hrs after training, so that’s still in the PWO window…I dunno, other than switching those 2 meals, is there really anything else to do?
