I'm currently cutting up. I'm doing about almost an hour and a half worth of cardio a day about 5 days a week on an empty stomach, I start off doing sprint intervals, for maybe like half hour, then do an hours worth of a karate type workout, just kicking, stretching, jumping, etc. So there, that's my cardio routine.
I'm drinking about 3-4 liters of water per day. Sorry, I can't drink anymore, i don't think I need a gallon a day anyway. I think 4 liters is fine. My piss is always clear. Decent sign that i'm well hydrated.
Anyway, I want to know abit about this whole carb thing. i eat about 6-7 times a day, depending on how long I'm awake, and i eat about every 2 hours or so. Now, some people say don't eat too many carbs, and eat a ton of protein, some say keep it all balanced at 40/30/30
So, what's the majority here on the carbs? I mean here's the deal, ok, the body can only metabolise around 30 grams of protein per sitting, correct? Ok, that equals out to a protein drink or a can of tuna. That's only 720 calories total a day from that. My BMR is around 2000 cals. I'm keeping my lean bodyweight x11 as total calories per day, so that equals about 2200 cals a day. Now what percentage of the rest of the calories do you all think should come from carbs?
I"M NOT DOING KETO AGAIN SO DON'T MENTION IT, it does not work for me, case closed. So don't tell me to eat 20 grams of carbs or less per day, hint hint you know who you are
Ahem...Anyway..
I mean, should I eat more protein anyway and get the rest of the cals from the protein? If that's the case, what I want to know is, if the body can only metabolise 30 grams or so at a sitting, what happens to the rest if you eat more? Does it just pass though your system wasted? What the hell does it do? It has to, otherise it's being metabolised for SOMEthing.
Ok, people, please help me out here, I need to get my head straight about the diet. I have until July 4th (my personal goal date), and I want to see at least some definition in my abs by then. So let me see you people argue
