Hi everybody. This is Kiefer from DangerouslyHardcore.com with another TubeCast for you.
And this one is about training on Carb Nite, particularly on your Carb Nite. A lot of people
wonder – will this, do you have to make sure that you train on the night when you
have a Carb Nite? You don’t have to. Carb Nite relies on very different hormonal patterns
to get the effects that it’s designed to get, whereas Carb Back-Loading is heavily
dependent on daily modifications to what’s going on in the cells of your body. So Carb
Back-Loading – incredibly important – to make sure you work out and you want to train
in the evening as much as possible. There is some wiggle room like I’ve talked about
before.
But on Carb Nite, the Carb Nite diet – it doesn’t really matter if you train on a
night shift Carb Nite. Obviously, training on your Carb Nite can help. It can force more
of those carbohydrates in the storage, in the muscles, and make sure nothing goes in
the fat cells. But that’s overly difficult anyway when you’re on the Carb Nite diet.
So it is okay to train on that Carb Nite.
What I will usually have people do, especially for going into pre-contest…so getting people
as lean as possible, I actually stage their Carb Nite after the workout that works on
their weakest body part. For example, a lot of female competitors – their back is really
their weakest body part. So what I’ll do is I’ll make sure that their back training
either happens on Friday or Saturday. And that’s the night that they’ll have their
Carb Nite.
So, it helps them get a little bit of a muscle boost and really prevents any degradation
of that muscle by having that Carb Nite immediately after that training session or on that day.
So I hope that helps everybody out with your various goals.
Again, if your main goal is just fat loss, you don’t have a contest coming up – it
really doesn’t matter when you train. You can get a little bit of a boost. If you’re
really trying to push the diet to its limits and get as lean as you can – choose your
weakest body part, train that body part on the day of your Carb Nite and have the carbs
after that training session.
Alright, that’s another tip from DangerouslyHardcore.com.
