I’ve read into carb cycling and how you’re supposed to have higher carbs on lift days. Does it matter if the lift is before or after the carbs? Are the carbs best for fuel or recovery in this situation? (I like to workout first thing in the morning before i eat and unsure if carb cycling is beneficial in this context)
Would love thoughts on losing weight and maintaining muscle mass. I know protein is important, but how important? And if you can’t gain muscle, why is it recommended to still weight train? Also, how important is the rate at which you lose weight in terms of maintaining muscle? Spent two years lifting and now I need to lose…
