Cut Carbs From Last Meal
Q: I have heard that in the cutting face after the bulk up u cut the carbs from the 2 last meals of the day.The whole idea is that as the time of sleep approaches the body is not be able to burn lots of carbs so it stores it as fat(which is the last bit of fat all lean ppl have in their belly).So,u keep up taking protein while in the last 2 meals eat only little of carbs(which are necessary in order for the protein to be invested well from the body cause as i know alone isnt so easy to be invested).Also u do almost every day cardio starting from 20 mins brisk walking till going in steps to 40.Is everything of these ok cause i wanna try some cutting also starting from the next week coming.
A: What you said about the carbs in last meals of the day on a cut is generally correct. I don't usually recommend eliminating them completely, but a green salad (which is very light on calories) is very appropriate for evening cut meals.
As far as cardio, different people prefer different amounts of cardio. I personally like less cardio and I recommend keeping it more intense than just brisk walking. HIIT cardio is a perfect example of very intense short cardio (actually it's not cardio at all, but most people refer to it as such anyway). But, as I said, if you want to do more of endurance cardio, you can do that as well and if you feel it's not going so good then you can switch to shorter, more intense cardio.
