I do the opposite of what most do....I will bump UP the carbs a bit(complex - as few simple carbs as possible)...that bump will reset natural thyroid production etc....its like a carb rotation kind of a thing.

Protein stays constant as possible as does fat

so you're saying that it would be beneficial during recomp? i'm guessing that it would not be an immediate effect but something you'd see when you hit the gym again? i seem to bloat up a bit when i have a layoff and i'm not strict with carbs... any ideas?

Yes.....the effect would be seen in the gym a few days later.

I use Glucorell for the extra carbs when I eat them...but I dont eat a *lot* of carbs when I am in the gym anyway.......125-150 grams per day tops.....that might go to 200-250 when Im not lifting.....but I feel that the influx of extra carbs creates a very anabolic environment as well as normalizing thyroid levels.
