Carb intake while on a PH

[mike0589]

I understand the basics of the bodies preferred energy source, but why is there such an emphasis on carbs, while running an anabolic cycle?

Carbs has to do with protein synthesis or something I learned in biology haha. Dont trust me on that, it was awhile since that class.

You work out harder thus need more carbs/glycogen to fuel and help the body recover lol I think : ) all I know is try running beastdrol with not enough carbs lol nearly killed me

What do you mean emphasis? If I am increasing cals I increase my macros in the same proportion, cutting is different tho

Increasing carbs can help with the lethargy of aas if you aren't getting enough

They can increase your threshold for glycogen compensation.

You don't need to, many don't. I'd focus more on protein as your ability to synthesis protein is greater which can lead to more muscle mass. If on a keto or carb cycling diet there's no need to change because of AAS use.

Some of this also depends I the type of AAS you choose to use
