Timed carb diet

[Trident]

X, after using the ANPB diet for a few weeks and losing a very good amount of fat.... i really cant take it anymore..... i need some type of whole food in my diet. I want to do a timed carb diet.... the one where you only have carbs right after you work out..... how would the macro nutrient breakdowns look for workout days? Also could i jsut use the ANPB diet for my days off from the gym? would that work..... i jsut couldnt take it.... my strength actually started to decrease after the third or fourth week.
I appreciate any help!

why don't we try a balanced diet

40%protein/30%fat/30% carbs

low-gi carbs, w/ EFAs

keep BMR at weight x 12

how does that sound?

So, on workout days should i save all my carbs for a post workout shake then a post workout meal about two hours later? or should i jsut eat a balanced diet all day and then hava abalanced PW shake too?

what you would do is have your PW shake w/ carbs and a meal after, and you can have carbs in the AM, but keep carbs near 0 after 8pm.

Basically, your ratios should be fairly balanced p/c/f until after the workout, and towards night time stick to protein/fat

How bout this

Workout days

Meals 1-3 would be 30 gms carbs, 30 gms prot, and 20 gms fat.

PWO meals 1 and 2 would have 60 gms carbs and 30 gms prot.

meal 6 would have 30 gms prot and 20 gms fat.


Non workout days


meals 1-5 would be 45 gms carbs 30 gms prot 12 - 13 gms of fat
meal 6 would be 30 gms prot. 12- 13 gms fat.

three workouts a week with weights and 3 to 5 cardio workouts..... not sure if i would do low intensity or HIIT yet..... waiting for feedback.

that looks good just post workout
go with 40g carbs and 40 g protein

and add the rest to the earlier meals
