    Carbs post workout. Never in the morning.

    I hear this all the time, but what if your workout is in the morning?

    As I understand it, it's not quite as ideal, but if your workouts are in the morning, still have the carbs post-workout, like right after, and then go low carb for the the rest of the day. Possibly a little before bed, but you'll have to tinker with that and see how your sleep and recovery is.

    I guess your goal of "to try and reduce bodyfat" was misunderstood, then. I will also assume you are referring to absolute strength and not relative strength. Which is also not congruent.

    You're welcome.

    You didn't misunderstand.. You're quite a pedantic soul aren't you.
    'Not eating fruit' is not the ONLY way to reduce bodyfat, it may hinder short term success, but considering the amount of fruit I eat (maybe a piece or two a day) I'm willing to deal with that.

    I am talking about absolute strength, not 'I can squat 1.5 times my bodyweight', but 'I want to be able to squat as much as I can'. What isn't congruent? That I would like to gain strength, whilst also wanting to improve aesthetically, but aesthetics not being the main goal? I don't understand why you're confused.
