I'm finding carbs aren't needed while "on"

[Vascular Freak]

I am running test,eq,primo,winstrol for those that don't know. I am in week 12 of this cycle. I have been eating 8 meals ed with a macronutrient intake of 400g protein, 110 g carbs, and 40 g fat (efa's mainly).

I must say that I am growing like crazy and am adding NOTHING but pure meat. I have dropped my bf by 2-3% over 12 weeks while growing from 174 to 185lbs! For those that are carb sensitve and are runnig a cycle, it may be worthwhile trying a diet where you only eat complex carbs pre and post workout for a total of 100g aproximately ed. I have done cycles before and kept a moderate to high carb intake and never gained anymore quality muscle than I have this cycle.

This would not be possible without gear, but while on the "standard dieting theories" seem to go out the window. AAS seems to thrive on protein and fats while just keeping enough carbs in the system to get a pump/intensity iin the gym.

whatever it is go with it
just make sure to boost Fiber content to compensate for added meat content

That is a great cycle, and a ton of protein, you should be happy with the results.

How is your energy?

I would venture that it works primarily because of the cycle, but you may actually be shorting yourself on energy sources since you have the recovery apsect of the cycle in your favor - the limited or lack of carbs may start to show itself when instead just some well-placed carbs may let you lift even harder / more intensity.

And Krishna's got a good point as well - low / no carb ---> lethargy.

Diets are ver individual. What works for some, may not work for another. I personally need moderate carbs in my diet just to feel good.

i have always cycled low carb to help with getting nice and leaned out but this year i decided to try something new. the added carbs make a huge difference and i am carb sensitive. i think sassy is onto something with her post.
