3J,
I have a couple of questions not necessarily regarding diet but just nutrition in general.
1) Which simple carb is best at replenishing muscle glycogen? glucose, fructose, sucrose, lactose?
glucose would be best.. fructose has a hard time getting past the liver
2) What is your opinion of calorie cycling? it seems to be a new fad in fat loss.
calorie cycling?? do you mean carb cycling??
3) What's your opinion of reverse dieting and do you feel individuals who didn't achieve contest levels of BF need to do so after a cut? or could one go straight into surplus cals without repercussion?
post contest if you go back to your regular calories its a very anabolic environment.. i personally have my clients take advantage of it
4)Also why do you believe in separating proteins carbs and fats in individual blocks like protein/carbs protein/fats? assuming if i read your statements in the OP correctly.
Does it has something to do with nutrient partitioning?
yes it does, but im not exactly going to write a book on it right now lol.. that was a general rule for this thread... individual needs may be different..
5) also, i'm more interested in learning about nutrient timing and partitioning, do you have any informative articles you could link me to?
i'm in the midst of learning/researching it right now and it would be great to have direction/guidance of where to look.
there is going to be alot of research out there that contradicts one another.. i highly recommend you find one philosophy and stick to it for a while... there are many forms of dieting.. use the one that works for you
Best,
