@Stevesmi: I'm assuming I'm insulin sensitive as well considering the weight gain I've had with the increase in simple carbs I've been eating. You said it best, I shouldn't be bitching about my strength gains. I'm going to cut out the majority of refined carbs in my diet now and go back to more of a Paleo approach like I had a while back. I'm going to try and get 70-80% of my carbs from veggies and fruits, with some sweet potatoes thrown in.
most guys don't get what its like being insulin sensitive.
the smallest amount of carbs gets partitioned into the muscles and gets stored as fat WHILE ON HORMONES!! and if you fail to get enough carbs guess what happens? you go hypo
so the solution here come off hormones.. run SARM's and GW.. and then watch yourself cut back up since you no longer have that partitioning going on.
