Building Your Plate Weeks 5-8

Action Items

This week we are planning 75% of your carbs around your workout.

1. Update your calorie total (if I've change them).
   
   
2. Update your carb total from 100g to the custom target based on your current metrics.
   
   
3. Plan your carbs using this variant, "25, 33, 42."

Consume 33 percent of your carbs before, during, or after your workout. Consume 42 percent of your carbs in your first recovery meal (post workout). Finish the day with the remaining 25 percent of your carbs in recovery meal 3.

Depending on your schedule and when you're training. Your last meal of the day may be the remaining 42% of your carbs if you're training in the evening.

e.g., Breakfast: no carbs. Lunch: 25% of carbs. Afternoon workout: 33% carbs. Dinner: remaining 42% of carbs.
