My life with HIGH CARBS vs. my life with LOW CARBS.

  • Carbs = Performance
    Once I retired from CrossFit, I convinced myself I didn’t need carbs. Over time I wasn’t able to push my performance and started to develop cravings and cramping.
    I decided to add carbs back in and saw a huge difference in my training, energy, recovery and overall quality of life.
    I’ve learned that you can still be lean, shredded & sexy with high carbs, as long as you know how to implement them into your day to day.

    Glad to hear someone finally say this when every other influencer tries to push low carb down our throats. Been eating low carb high fat for awhile. I felt great and healthy, however, wasn't recovering or performing efficiently. It's just not optimal for athletes, especially high performance. completely agree with this.

      ​@@boguslav9502no, your body literally needs carbs to produce atp optimally. You can still perform on carnivore, but your body can't sustain the energy output. Carnivore / keto is great for weight loss, but don't expect to work out.
      I've been carnivore / ketovore for 10 months now and have lost 55 lbs. I trained for a strongman competition before the diet, but now I don't work out. I only work out if I have a cheat meal so I can enjoy hiking or a good lift.

      Keto literally saved my life, helped me to learn that i am HIGHLY intolerant to many carbs, including the ones that doctors never took out of my diet, i thought that i was normal when in fact i was pretty much poisoned all my miserable and unhealthy life. Too bad that i started to lack energy after depleting my body reserves of something (i have no idea what), with patience i identified and reintroduced carbs that are not a problem for me and feeling and doing great, the multiple and massive benefits of keto remains. For now no longer keto but ill be back here and there to see how im truly doing.

      If you are in a calorie deficit you will be losing body mass and energy. But if you keep protein and carb high and fat low. Carbs will be fuelling up your muscles more even in deficit than if it was high protein and high fat.
      Plus the fact you will lose fat a small bit faster as fat gets Stored as fat and takes time to use energy out of it while carbs are only stored as fat when body has excess carbs which shouldn't be in a deficit. Hope I'm correct. Clear me up if I'm wrong

    I do think it’s important to note that this can be personal. Some people get more energy from a high fat diet than a high carb diet. It is a matter of genetics there. Carbs are not the enemy, but neither is fat. Don’t let the current trend in fitness persuade you to go one way or the other. Experiment for yourself and see what works for you. You might find far more energizing than carbs.

If I do 500 Cal deficit... nothing happens... And yes, I do count my calories with a scale. I workout 1h30m 5 times a week (pushing to failure 90% of sets), and do 5-6 mile walks 5 times a week.

    Take your Body weight in Lbs. Eat that many grams of each macro daily. I'm 5,'8", 150 lbs. Probably about 10% body fat. And that puts me at 2400 calories a day. Still a relatively low carb diet. But amino acids and fatty acids are more of a priority to get quality sources. Carbs are usually the cheapest and most available food source. So you can just backfill as needed.

  • @matyastorok

    It depends on your goal and the type of training you do really, as well as how your body handles carbs. If you grow love handles probably lower your carbs. If you do high volume training, increase your carbs. If you do high intensity meaning heavy weight but way lower volume you will probably not use much of your carbs and your body will store the excess as fat.

      Carbs fill you up the least out of all the nutrients ( other than fiber ofc) the best way to satiate yourself is a mix of protein, fat and fiber, protein is digested the slowest and makes you fell fuller than anything else, fiber works similarly, and the fat will help to make you digest the food slower
