Agree with Ronin :nod: , different things work for different people.

Workonit: If its working for you then perfect, adjust it accordingly.

Why try fix something when it is not broken....?

basmati rice takes a long time to digest its all about it glycemic index perfect for bodybuilding.....

im not saying it works for me so it will work for everyone but its really quite simple. protein everytime u eat carbo load all day before the gym (rice oatmeal, kumara or whatever) veges etc get in some healthy fats like peanut butter, fish oil tabs, flax seed oil, armond, walnuts and no carbs after the gym/night plenty of eggs mostly egg white the yolks contain fats and cholesterol....... hope it helps dude

Dude, you (and a fuckload of others) trot these golden rules out and tout them like Moses hisself brought them down from the mount. You appear to have missed my point (echoed by others) which is that there is more than one answer. About the only thing you got right there was the emphasis on protein (although I'm sure someone could probably provide a study that argues the point :lol: ).

Carbo loading... I say again - "Keto". Google it if you don't know what it is.

Carbo loading all day before the gym... Intermittent Fasting. I don't eat until 1600 each day, and I train at about 0900. SFS is also on IF, and if you need more, I would recomend checking out leangains.com.

No carbs after the gym/night... Carb back-loading? Again, google is your friend.

Egg whites vs whole eggs... Done to death on this site, use the search function above.

To reiterate, my point is that there are innumerable ideas when it comes to nutrition, not just the one set of rules that you read about in Flex or Ironman or Men's Health.

excellent fucking post ronin.

OP,

before anything else, what is your first priority? youve said that you have some weight to lose, but you also wanna be a big strong motherfucker aswell. in the early stages youll get away with it, but you should work towards one goal at a time.

give us a bit more detail, and we will get you some more detailed advice. but just on what youve put, i would agree with more carbs, if youre wanting to bulk up. but i need more details before i can give you specifics.
