I was wondering if someone could give me some advice. I am currently trying to drop some fat and I am using a timed carb style diet. I only eat carbs with a shake after work outs M, W, F.
I want to try to keep as much muscle as I can, but honestly do not care if I lose a few. How critical is it to have carbs after a workout? I am obviously taking into reduced calories so I doubt I am build much muscle. The issue is that I seem to feel run down the days after using carbs. It is almost like I am starting the phase-in process over again.
I current eat @ 2100kCal (10% CHO, 40% FAT, 50% PR0). My PWO shakes consist of about 60 CHO. My total CHO intake is about 30g on off days and 90-100g on workout days.
Stats are 200 (23% BF) down from 280 (?? BF) 38" waist. 15.5 neck. My goal is to get to at least 15%. It would be nice to get lower, but I honestly do not desire to get below 10% or maintain a lower BF %.
I am losing about 2 lbs per week and have been in the 2-4 range per week since August. I started supplementing with BCAAs this week, but otherwise I have not taken any supplements besides whey protein.
Is it alright to just drop the carbs totally, or do I need some sort of re-feed? Also if something seems off with my program any advice would help.
