Can I eat half of my carbs from apples?

[thegoodfoods]

I know this is in the wrong forum but there are so many knowledgeable people in here. And you could say it involves AAS because I'm on a cycle right now.

So I'm on a cutter and I don't want to lower my carbs too much. Is it OK if I eat about half of my carbs from apples, the other carbs from possibly oatmeal and milk? Will the sugars hinder my fat loss? Will it just make me fatter? This could also pertain the milk I drink because it has sugars, too.

The short answer is NO. Apples contain too much sugar, and WILL impede fat-loss.

On a side-note, when cutting, the BIGGEST mistake people make is REDUCING CARBOHYDRATES!

Reducing TOTAL calorie intake is more important than reducing CARBS! This is why guys lose MUSCLE!

You should be eating at least 25-50 grams of carbohydrates in EVERY meal, with the exception of your one or two non-carb meals, later into your cutting phase.

Having said that, ALL of your carbs MUST be low-glycemic! NO EXCEPTIONS!

Most of your carbs should be low GI w/ the exception of a pre and postworkout shake if you opt to have one.
My staple is oats oats and then some more oats.

apples are not a form of complex carbs.

Going to have to disagree with you there.

My waist is only a 32 in that pic, my BF is 10%. I have large potruding hip-bones, which create the illusion of a GUT in that particular pic. I have never done GH...LOL.

I am very naturally vascular. I have veins everywhere even at around 12 percent BF.

You WILL lose muscle if you DROP your carbohydrates too low, this is EVEN if you are consuming maintenance calories.

I would like to hear why you disagree.

I dont want to sound rude or mean, but if possible I would love to get huge with NO weins at all, like Victor Martinez

Apples are very low on the GI scale and would be ok for some of your carbs !
