I should've explained myself more when I said that. What I wrote will make perfect sense:
I train at night. When I am cutting/recomping, I generally do a fullbody routine 3x per week. I utliize a Cyclical Ketogenic Diet when recomping/cutting.
On Friday night (3rd training session of the week aka my 'depletion' workout), I refeed with simple carbs taken alongside nutrient partitioning agents like Glycobol / NA-RALA, etc. You WANT to take simple carbs post workout, anytime. So this is what I do to START the refeed process. My refeed lasts until Saturday night / Sunday morning. I will eat complex carbs and protein during that time. But yes, I begin my refeed, post workout, with simple carbs. This is normal and optimal. There is no train going off the rails.
your practice of taking a nutrient partitioner is not as useful as you think in this instance, and in fact may hinder your goals and the process which you are trying to employ..
you are also making no distinction between your weight training, and the cardio only OP is employing prior to bed..
lastly: the idea of "you WANT to take in simple carbs postworkout, anytime" is quite flawed, and bro-scientific in itself
yes when i train earlier in the day, i will typically have some fast-digesting carbs postWO, inc dextrose more often than not..
but not ALL the time, ANYTIME as you say -- for example when i am prepping for a bodybuilding show, or trying to get to my absolute leanest, i will cease ingestion of any simple carbs postWO timeframe (such as is the case with montego)
the re-feed in this instance, will last only one meal, and be performed 2x per week -- not a 24+ time period such as you speak of for yourself..
so yes, the train did go off the tracks for you, somewhere..if you think everyone should aspire to your own personal understanding of things, it has gone off the rail very much indeed
now we are getting into preferences and protocols, not science
they are two totally separate discussions
