It can vary a bit with your goals, you my need less when carbs are higher, more when carbs are lower, etc. I would say 1.5g/lb is a good place to start and you really cant go wrong with that.

Oh ok.
NO.
maybe a few nutritionaly un-educated athletes, but people who understand fats and how they work, will know that you can function and lift hard and intense with out an abundance of carbs in the diet.
Sorry for wording my post like an ass.
but my point was that that type of diets has created a fear of carbs. because alot of people actually think carb=fat. maybe not you and most people on this board.but most people including athletes are nutrtionally uneducated.
then again you dont need to overeat carbs aswell but i think a balanced diet is the best.
Rake>> how is that comment helpful???

carbs also make the protein grow muscles for you.
if you ate nothing but protein your muscles wouldnt grow at all
also 1.5g protein/lb of bodyweight is way too much. I don't think anyones liver can properly metabolize that much in a day.
I've been eating about .5g protein/lb of bodyweight a day and my gains and lifts have been increasing extremely fast on this cycle, test + tren. which turns to about 30-40grams of protein 3-4 times a day.

I am actually in the process of switching to a lower carb diet now. I will only be getting carbs post workout in the form of 60-90g waxy maize. My goal is to lose some BF while keeping/adding lean mass in the process, with the "supplements" I don't see it being a problem. All other meals will be protein only with some good fats added in for calories.
If I was bulking I would get more carbs but from the research I have done, getting carbs post workout only is really all that's needed for lean mass gains. I will keep you all posted!

Please, let us know your thoughts!

The only purpose of carbs is to supply your body with the energy to workout (and execute daily functions, as if that matters lol). I would say most bodybuilders do the exact opposite and eat WAY too many carbs. After a certain point more carbs doesn't equal more strength. Same goes for protein - just cuz you eat more doesn't mean you'll get more muscle. You don't NEED carbs to get big at all. Calories can come from protein and fat.
What you really need are the required amounts, determined by your stats and metabolism, a proper diet/training routine and a long time of enforcing that to see the gains you want.

no ketones can be used as a transport in the absence of glucose...so try again.
also you may wanna look into Vince Gironda and look at his BB pix from the 50's and his method of dieting and then come back and tell us that "with out carbs you can't build muscle"...
the main thing for growth or wt loss is cals in vs. cals out, however I am a firm beiliver that "what" those cals are made of will make a differnce, as I do not support the twinkie diet for for wt loss, even though I know it could be done.
