Scott, maybe hoping for some insight Regarding the FT nutrition. I am a first thing in the morning trainer. I follow the recommendations in the e-book regarding the peri workout nutrition and then cut carbs off through afternoon and in to evenings. I started experimenting with doing some carbs before bed with my shake and found that I wake up more glycogen loaded and have a better pump in the gym. Total carbs peri workout around 250 and doing another 50 via oatmeal pre-bed. I started doing this because I was waking up in the am pretty flat during my dieting phase. So I basically have carbs pre/intra/post/post meal 2, then pull for 3 meals, then reintroduce carbs last meal. Has anyone else seen any positive benefit to this half assed carb back loading, or am I just setting myself up for fat accumulation with these carbs before bed?
