A/P Carb meal with fats

My morning meal usually consists of 3/4 cup oats, 1/4 cup raisins and two taplespoons ground flax seeds. Does the fat from the flax seeds (almost 10 grams) hamper APs ability to utilize the carbs?

So far I have noticed that I feel swole as all hell since using AP the last three days. My muscles are incredibly full. I'm also doing a cycle of Epidrol which is causing me to blow up a bit too, but the crazy pumps didn't start until the AP.

I've been taking two per day. One in the morning, 20-30 minutes prior to breakfast and once 20 minutes prior to my post workout waxy maize. I usually take the AP just as I'm wrapping up my workout so I can get the waxy in me right when I'm done.

So far so good especially since the price was right. (bought during the sale.)
 
The fat from the flax seeds does not hamper Anabolic Pump. Looks like you`re doing great!! Glad to hear you`re getting great results :cool:
 
As Dex said, healthy fats, such as flax, will not cause any adverse problems when taken with Anabolic Pump.

Sounds like it really kicked in fast for you! Nothing like the muscle fullness after an AP meal, still feels amazing to me, and Ive been using AP for a long while.

Keep us updated on how it works out for you.

what about other fats? I have a far amount of egg yolks, full cream milk etc in my diet. This has done wonders for my strength and Im putting on some good size, but the AP is not holding back the spare tyre atm.

I have never had any issues when taking AP with moderate/high fat meals. My typical breakfast has about 25 g fat from egg yolks, ect. You may try lowering the fat intake and see if that helps. I think some of the problem with high fat and AP doses is the GI disomcfort it may cause. I have never experienced any GI stress/discomfort, though, with AP.

Im on a bulking diet, a little dirty @ 5000 cal. No processed or junk food, but plenty of eggs and dairy. I have no problems with GI discomfort either.

I wasn't really expecting AP or PSlin to be totally effective at mitigating fat deposition.

Still worthwhile from a performance/gains point of view.

I feel AP does a very good job at limiting fat gain, but with 5,000 or so calories there will probably be some 'spill over.' You can try to lower your calories a bit, and with some trial and error, find your sweet spot for pure lean gains with no fat gain.
 
the only meal that i would be concerned about fat intake with would be your immediate pre-workout meal. some do not have an issue but for me, dietary fat seems to slow everything down and make it sit in my gut (i understand that this is a basic physiological effect of dietary fat). i usually comprise my immediate pre-workout meal of quick digesting protein and complex carbohydrate with minimal dietary fat. i want to be able to eat enough of these two key macronutrients and with the addition of the dietary fat calories, i must limit either protein or carbohydrate (regardless of body composition goals). dietary fat also tends to give me mild headache's when consumed prior to exercise.

other than that, i have never had any issues with not getting "the" Anabolic Pump, regardless of dietary fat consumption.
