First off i'd like to say how much i have missed you guys at this forum. I've been away for roughly a year (around the time John Meadows appeared on the board), purely down to being extremely busy.
Now that i'm back and have absorbed a ton of information from numerous posts that i have missed, i thought i'd get a new thread started on a topic that i don't see mentioned very often.
How do you vary your nutrition on non training days?
When asked to post their diet, people only ever seem to post what they eat on training days. Now i know you're not all machines and have to take the odd day or 2 off to recover.
Do you not change a thing because you believe you need the same amount of food to aid recovery?
Do you lower carbs because you need less fuel on non-training days?
Do you decrease carbs but increase protein and healthy fats to prevent muscle loss and increase insulin sensitivity?
If you eat low carb in general, do you reduce fat on non-training days?
I'm sure the likes of Shelby, John Meadows, Phil, Brad, JC, Dante, MG, Magnum etc can all provide great input on this topic.
Get discussing guys!!
P.S. If there is already a thread that covers this topic that i have missed then i apologise in advance.
