Not if you're eating way more than your daily caloric needs.

It's pretty straightforward, so there's really no need to over analyze it.

It's actually easy for the body to store carbs as fat.  Your body has only so much room in the liver and muscles for glycogen.  What does not get burned or stored as glycogen gets stored as fat.

Haha!  Ok, everyone go and do this for a month and then report the results.

Oh yeah, don't forget to do 1.5-3 hours of cardio every single day.  ::)

As much as I agree with the fact that carbs don't make you fat, that video really doesn't show/prove anything at all.

my oppinion is that we consume waaaaaay to many carbs....high and low gi .. even bodybuilers sometimes exagerate instead of adapting the type and amount to the energy requirements ... also cycling them as needed

Depends mostly on your metabolism and your training methods. If you mostly do high-volume and spend hours in the gym, carbs won't be a problem for you. If you train heavier but shorter sets, then you'll probably be able to eat more fat but less carbs.

excess calories make you fat, not one macro-nutrient.


If your dumbass body burns 3000 calories a day (including your faggoty ass bodybuilding attempts) and you eat 3500 calories a day. You will get fat. Doesnt matter if you are eating excess protein, carbs, fat or dogshit.

you need to eat at least 1000g carbs a day + a 1000g protein if want to grow, no less.

Carbs dont make you fat. Fats dont make you fat. Proteins dont make you fat. ***



Combining fats and carbs makes you fat.


***Assuming your not Binge eating or gorging yourself.

Quite simplified, but true:

- the more carbs + the greater calorie surplus the more anabolic (to an extent). It's well documented that a carb rich diet will result in greater mass and size gains. Unfortunately it also increases the risk of getting fat since carbs that aren't used will be stored as fat...which means you have to walk a very fine line.

One problem with a low carb diet CAN be low blood sugar which means the body will turn to use more muscle for energy.

Ideally we should know exactly how many calories we will be burning for the next 3 hrs or so and eat for that. So if you're going out shopping and walking, you add a few calories to your "standard meal". If you're going to relax on the couch you eat less, if you're gonna nap you eat even less.

I am simply posting this for beginners to read.

Yeah I have a pretty fast metabolism and workout hard so I eat like shit too.
But you gotta remeber not everyone on this board is a long distance marathon runner like your self.
