Im up to 171 from 162 in November. Im at 3000 kcal each day, 2600 on rest days. Im going to start some pulsing/protocol stuff in a week. Having said that, is literally having a whole pizza for a cheat metabolic stupidity? Not sure if I will do it once week if I’m on protocol.
Im at 330-350 Protein and 280 carb (120 on rest days)

Increase the calories on the off days. Or are you really getting 400 calories in peri-workout nutrition?[/quote]
Bonez,
Should I bump up my carbs on off days to what they are on normal days? I intake 75 grams of protein and 90 grams of carbs before my workouts. The rest of my carbohydrates are in my breakfast, and 90 minutes after my workout. My pre-workout shake is about 700 kcal.
When I begin the protocol I will use the dosing schedule that is recommended, but I still want to make sure I’m eating enough on top of that. If I get 100 grams of carbs from the protocol, then I am thinking that I should take the carbs I would have had in my own pre-workout shake and replace or spread them out throughout the day with actual whole carb sources. I’m feeling hesitant not counting the protocols macros, and 2 pulses in my nutrition.
Thanks for all the feedback and help, I really appreaciate it and helps a lot.
