Udo's Supplementation & Timing? Senior X

[SgtSlaughter]

My question is: Would it be more beneifcial to supplement a cutting diet with the healthy fats in the a.m. or the evening?

a rough schedule outline:

wake up
eat
eat
eat
eat
LIFT( I go to the gym late most of the time and i drink a DWO..during workout shake, i've found better results with that)
eat
eat
bed


My food choices vary so much daily that I would have too many options for each meal to type.

Food choices lately: Chicken breast, Fish (salmon, flounder, tuna), lean steak, ANPB, Rolled Oats/Steel oats, Lettuce (and other misc. veggies), Psyllium Fiber, Brown Rice, Powder protein is reserved for only workouts... I stick with whole foods for every meal besides workouts.

I think that's all I need to preface this thread with, if you need more info... let me know!

EDIT: Another though was that do I really need it? I am getting in almost every day 3-4 servings of fish (and not canned tuna).

What kind of fish?

Take in some fats at every meal that you aren't taking carbs.

Ah, good point about the carbs!
Fish:

Fish (salmon, flounder, tuna)

Now... I know before workout should be another carb meal, as should after.

So either take UDO's with breakfast or meal 2.... or before I pass out?

I always towards the end of my cutting for contest prep start partioning my foods. Limits me nicely and works well. I do a TKD style diet, where I hit my carbs around my workout, then after my last carb meal, I have just protein/fiberous veggies/fish oil the rest of the day.

As far as recommended carbs around workout I have used a figure of number of sets/2*5...for instance, 20 total sets, 50 total gr. of carbs.

.

I would suggest both. My theory is that you can't have enough healthy fats

Okey dokey, that's what I needed to know!

Thanks to all that contributed!

Yeah, it is not unusual at all when I am dieting to be taking in 20 gr. of fats in the form of fish and flax. When carbs are dropped to a pretty low number, those calories have to come from somewhere.

Fish oil supplement effects are not immediate, in other words they work better with chronic use rather than acute useage.
