Curious - I know we do it, but I am unsure of the reasoning.
Say bodybuilder A trains in the morning. A typical pre-contest diet would have carbs in meal 1 and postworkout and then eliminated throughtout the day, moving more to pro fat meals.
If a calorie is a calorie, why is it that we cut carbs save the water retention factor?
Not challegening the theory, just trying to understand the rational of no carbs after your first few meals.
