Curious what thoughts you guys have on this.
Say someone has 600g carbs a day, but wants to keep them mostly around the training window.
Just to be extreme for examples sake, say diet A is 100g carbs for every meal (6 meals). Diet B is 250g pre workout, 100g intra, and 250g post. Is there a “limit” to how much of those carbs are going to be properly stored as glycogen, due to all being eaten in a single meal? Or is it really about the total of the day that is going to be most relevant? What would be better for our body composition goals? I know many coaches like John meadows really emphasized periworkout nutrition, but can it be too extreme?
