Vic/Joe (and anyone else) - in the thread I referenced below, you recommended some good carb/fat pre-workout meals

So the big question I have is... are you recommending these pre-workout meals even when in a cut cycle? I just started a 12-week cut and I've been trying to stay away from carbs too close to my training to be sure I'm burning fat stores instead of ingested carbs. This is especially true for my weight-cardio days in which I'm actually using the weightlifting for cardio.


This is a follow up to the fat/carb combo thread from a couple of days ago...

I'm using 2 scoops of Nitro Core 24 about 1.5-2 hours preworkout and Glycomaize/Vassive-EA8 during my workout and I'm getting leaner each week

I plan to keep doing this even during a cut/prep until calories have to be cut from somewhere

Thanks Ben - good info. I've been using the Nitro Core 24 also and will be writing a review soon. Are you also getting a post-workout shake or going with whole food for that?

Vic/Joe - looks like this thread got buried - any thoughts from you guys since your comments started this discussion? :)

i don't do this when cutting if you read my new blog you will see a good example of one of my cutting diets. the reason i suggested you do fat carb meal when you are really watching what you are eating is because i dont think it would do you much good unless you are on a structured program. you could however arrange your diet so there is some carbs and fat in the meal prior to your normal training time with slightly less protien. i would cut protien back a bit in order to make room for added calories from fat
