195: 3 Easy Ways to Eliminate a Skinny-Fat Body Type Jul 03, 2023

Show notes

In this podcast episode of the Low Carb Hustle talk about being "skinny fat", the condition where someone appears normal in clothes but has excess fat when shirtless, lacking muscle mass and definition. I'll talk about how to avoid it or even how to reverse it. Muscle mass is paramount for overall health but when we have the "skinny fat" situation some people have the common dilemma of whether to bulk or cut for skinny fat individuals. I'll cover key concepts such as the metabolic outcomes of weight loss, the drawbacks of deep cutting, and the pitfalls of bulking without sensitivity to muscle gain. I suggest a nutrition framework called carb backloading and emphasize the significance of finding the right balance of carbohydrates rather than completely eliminating them.

191: What are the 3 Best Times to Eat Carbs? (make sure to hit #3) Jun 19, 2023

Show notes

Let's talk about the best times to enjoy some carbs throughout the day. When it comes to optimizing your carbohydrate intake, three key moments stand out. Firstly, the best time to consume carbohydrates is before your workout, as they provide a valuable energy boost to fuel your exercise session. Secondly, there's another ideal time later in the day, the third time to be precise, where you should incorporate carbs into your meal plan. Finally, having carbs at night can actually promote recovery, helping your body replenish glycogen levels and prepare for the next day. Interestingly, did you know that the brain is the heaviest user of glycogen in the body? Fascinating, right? So, when planning your meals, consider lighter carb options before and after your workout to optimize your performance and recovery.

[00:00 - 4:33]

The best time to eat carbohydrates is pre-workout.
The third time of the day when you should eat carbs.

The brain is the heaviest glycogen user in the body.
Lighter carb meals pre and post workout.
