FT Questions....

[Scott Stevenson]

Thanks so much for the reply Scott
I'm currently running Turbo tier 3
So I def need those carbs lol
The 12 hour shifts for me arnt to much of a problem , they are tough as I work in mental health , but the company are good to me as they support me with my bb , they let me eat every 2.5 hours and even asked if I wanted a few days off in my last prep !
So training (usually in the am tbh ) is not a problem
And I don't notice any strength/intensity loss if I do train after 12 hour shift and feel I do recover v well ( if I do have , say have 3 12 hour shifts in a row il only train only 2 of those ,obv never 2 days in a row ) so what I'm taking away from your answer is if training after 12 hour shift keep carbs out till intra /post and then match the Marcos (carbs) in the first couple of meals the next day that I would usually have in the two meals after pwo meal on days I train at an earlier time of the day ?
Yeah my main goal is it grow and stay lean wich iv got to say with FT is going v well I have gained 6kg and stayed at 8-9% bf since training with FT
Obv there are other elements contributing to this , but I have to say if you do FT right your gonna grow
Hope this all makes sense I tend to ramble lol
Thanks again Scott

Hey Mike,

Thanks for all the feedback and you're welcome!

As far as this question:

I'm taking away from your answer is if training after 12 hour shift keep carbs out till intra /post and then match the Marcos (carbs) in the first couple of meals the next day that I would usually have in the two meals after pwo meal on days I train at an earlier time of the day ?

That would be my general answer if you're at Tier III Turbo. You're gonna need the food for sure. It sounds like those 12hr shifts are not entirely under your control, so that generic answer is probably the best.

As you said, the other thing to consider is how you set up your training days during the week relative to the long days, and you seem to have that covered, too.
