FT Questions....

[Scott Stevenson]

Trying to stick with ur diet plan. I struggle to get so many carbs in right at the end of the day. I added on carb meal before my workout. Will this mess with the program u have set up?

Rest days I'm hungry. Is it ok to increase calories if u are. Or is it best to treat it like a diet and get threw??

When the scale stops moving up. Where would be the first place to increase kcal?

My protein is higher than what u recommend. Should I try and bring it down or am I ok where I'm at.

So far I made a big adjustment getting to where I am now with change of macros. I'm liking my results with ur macros. Although I can make more adjustments to get even closer to what u have set up.

If your'e making progress with what you are doing - DON'T CHANGE IT. i'd keep doing what you've been doing generally and not mess with a good thing.

The pre-workout carb meal will totally negate any and all progress. You're dead in the water. JUST KIDDING. (That's just fine.)

• THE BOOK IS JUST AN EXAMPLE - none of this is set in stone dietarily. That's human nature to want that to be the case, but the approaches there might not work well for some folks at all.. •

As was noted previously here, if you've maxed out the peri-workout recovery supplementation and post-workout food consumption, I'd add food initially where you're the hungriest or a meal is the least filling, regardless of the day or time of day.

If you're not sure, you can try adding more food at the same time of day on the non-training days as when you eat your post-workout meals. This will set up a circadian rhythm that often helps most folks eat more, esp. during the post-workout period itself.

The protein is fine. If you find you need to drop that down a bit to get more food in (later on), that's a option. (Protein is satiating.)
