| Ok then dont want to seem argumentative but!!!!!!!
If you take in carbs post workout,yeah you are increasing insulin to supposable reduce catabolism,but with that your shutting down any chance of your body producing and using all that lovelly natural growth hormone you`ve just stimulated through training,so your not only stopping that from increasing muscle mass but also from reducing bodyfat.
Also insulin is a storage hormone so you may push carbs and protein into muscle cells but also your going to also push some of it into fat cells,so you get fatter aswell as increasing some muscular size.
Plus chances are also if your using whey protein then it alone will stimulate insulin production cos its an inferior/incomplete protein,imho,and I have seen studies that it does convert to sugar when injested rather than staying as protein,protein mix all the way for me.
Also,take a look far far back to our genetic ancestors and compare yourselves to then in that they went out on a hunt,you go to the gym,they run around and exhaust themselves,you batter yourselves with weights,both of you at the end are in the same catabolic envirtoment,you need food,the difference being he ate meat and lots of it,you mess things up and drink a carb/protein mix,science hs proven time and time again we didnt have fat cavemen,but we have fat bodybuilders. |
