Yates consuming 2,000 grams of carbs in the offseason?
« on: December 06, 2008, 09:19:23 PM »
 If I take in very low carbohydrates I can't walk. So obviously I need more carbohydrates. In the off-season I was on 2000 grams of carbohydrates a day and 400-500 grams getting ready for a contest, and my contest condition was better than most, for sure, so my body fat was very low on 400 grams of carbohydrates a day.



2,000 * 4 = 8,000 calories alone from carbohydrates  :o
I think this is not correct because it's pretty hard to consume this and he even states he never went above 6,000 calories  ???


The highest I ever went in the off-season was about 6000 calories. And I generally went below 4000 for a contest.

well obviously his numbers in both quotes dont match up but i think its safe to say that there are ways he could have been eating 2k grams of carbs per day... and have been NEEDING T and BENEFITTING from doing so.. just not anything to go around telling people (like saying that kinda junk in a magazine article) without also saying the other *factors* involved in why youd be eating 2k grams carbs per day

Its not like the guy ever had to be anywhere...I don't think he guest posed that much...Dorian is a sociopath like most other pro's...So setting his watch to everything he puts in his mouth would be no problem...

Pro bodybuilders are too fucking dumb to be sociopaths.

The sport is filled with them.  Dan Duchaine was another sociopath whack job.  And people actually glorify the moron.

Each slice of pizza can have 40 to 80 grams of carbs  times 12 or  8 ( depending on how its sliced)  480 to 640 grams of carbs. That's a  lot of pizza. I think he meant he consumed  2000 CALORIES  in carbs. Plus the 1200 in calories from protein, and 800 calories from  fats= 4000 calories. Not a bad ratio and set up ( for a huge guy like Yates).

Fast metabolism and Insulin will make you eat that much carb and still stay lean.

2000 calories in carbs still don't add up given his macronutrient ratios. He was a high carb guy.

It makes 100% NO SENSE.  I am confuzedzorz

   I was just trying to make sense of it, because 2000 grams of carbs = 8000 cals, just inn carbs. That would make anyone fat.   Maybe there was a typo? I dunno..
