p/c/f ratio and timings? - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

Lux · 05-04-2006, 08:15 PM

I was just having a read of some articles regarding the timing and balance of p/c/f consumption, and was wondering if anybody has any thoughts, or experiences on what i found?

The first article was clean bulking posted by pscarb, but written by somebody else. This focuses on a typical evening workout. And the other article was on john berrardi's site, massive eating reloaded part2. Also focusing on an evening workout. Heres how the meals were thought out . . .

Clean bulk
M1 p+c
M2 p+c
M3 p+f
M4 p+light c
M5 p+c shake
M6 p+c
M7 p+f
M8 p+f

Massive eating . .
M1 p+f
M2 p+f
M3 p+f
M4 p+f
M5 p+c drink during training
M6 p+c
M7 p+c
M8 p+c

Just researching more, as knowledge is power

Me myself personally I like to eat my Protein/Fat/Carbohydrates all together.
Depending on the fats, they have a less influence on insulin (mono-Omega 3's).
Depending on fats they have more influence on insulin (saturated fats).

Depending on the carb it can have a harder impact on insulin or not (low GI high GI)

What is it you are looking for?

Dieting I drop the carbs, especially at night.

Bulking I add carbs, throughout the day.
I still try to keep my macro's the same.

Just looking at different ideas of a bulking diet really. I'm not a big guy so plan on bulking for most of this year but trying to keep fat gains as low as possible due to the length of the bulk.

I currently have most meals as p/c/f throughout the day except for breakfast which is p/c. Would a little (10g) fat be a bad idea with this meal? Also pwo is a p/c shake then p/c meal, pre bed is p/f.

I myself like to keep all macros with each meal, keeps the blood sugar more stable and consistant.
