I recently started my bulking season and would like to bulk up as efficiently (there are different definitions, I’m open to hearing all of them) as possible.
I’ve been training fasted for years now and am used to it but I’m considering experimenting with having a pre-workout meal and/or adding low GI intra-workout carbs to my intra-workout shake which is currently comprised of an intra-workout mix (Controlled Labs Purple Wraath + OL endur3), AAKG and HMB.
I’m currently making strength gains every session and good strength gains 9/10 sessions whilst training fasted.
What would be the pros and cons of having a pre-workout meal and of adding low GI carbs to my intra, compared to training fasted?
For the pre-workout meal, what would you guys suggest?
I’ve read that 25-50g carbs with a protein source high in leucine’s best.
For the intra-workout carbs I’m thinking highly branched cyclic-dextrin or that stuff made by a Japanese company (I forget the name). What would you suggest?
