How to AVOID carb-based fat spillover (3 easy steps)
Published: Thu, 10/03/13
One of the most common things
you'll hear in the fitness industry is that carbs make your fat.
Well, it's true - they CAN.
But all you have to do is eat
all your favorite carbs at the RIGHT times, and you'll NEVER store them as fat.
If you do eat carbs at the
wrong times, you'll be scratching your head wondering why your belly isn't shrinking.
So here's 3 simple carb timing tricks you can use to eat loads of carbs without
worrying about them "spilling" over and being stored as ugly fat on your belly.
First up - Good:
A good time to consume healthy carbs like non-processed starches and
fruits is first thing in the morning or upon waking up -- for a few reasons.
- You've fasted all night while you sleep so glycogen levels (energy inside your muscle tissue) have been somewhat depleted and this leaves extra room for carbs to replenish lower glycogen stores without fat storage.
This is especially effective if you exercise in the
a.m.
- You're metabolic rate runs highest during the a.m. hours (or after you wake up from sleeping) than it will later in the day so you'll more likely use these carbs as energy.
- Insulin sensitivity is
also higher when you wake up than other times of the day, which allows your
body to utilize carbs and limit fat spillover.
Next up - Better:
An even better time to consume
starches and fruits is a few hours before
high intensity resistance training (bodyweight circuits, metabolic resistance
training, etc.) or a heavier weight training session.
This will ensure that these carbs are used as energy during and after
the workout to avoid fat-spillover - and provide sustained energy throughout
the workout. Better performance equals more fat and calories burned during and
after the workout.
Additionally, the extra
insulin release at this particular time will help prevent muscle loss and
increase gains in lean muscle tissue.
Last up - BEST:
The best time to consume carbs
from starches and fruits is in your post workout anabolic window of
opportunity, which is anywhere from 1 to 3 hours after high intensity training.
In fact, if you work out late
at night you could actually consume your favorite carbs right BEFORE bed and
never worry about fat spillover.
This works best when you're
following more of a maintenance schedule so I don't recommend using this tip
when trying to achieve rapid fat-loss, but it does prove the point that eating
late at night doesn't really make you
fat.
That's because when you work out intensely enough you'll
set off several powerful metabolic triggers no matter what time of day it is:
· Increased
metabolic rate and increased nutrient absorption
· Accelerated
depletion of muscle glycogen
· Release of
catecholamines (fat burning hormones)
Other benefits include
increased insulin sensitivity, glucose uptake, and glycogen synthesis. Again,
under these conditions your body is more likely to store carbs (and other
macro-nutrients) at a much faster and higher rate than normal.
This is why it's so important to eat the majority of your impact carbs
in your post workout meals.
Regardless if your goal is fat
loss, strength, performance, energy, improved health or anything else, it's
critical for you to understand the process of food timing.
When you do, you'll improve your insulin
sensitivity dramatically, which will improve your body's ability to burn ugly
fat as fuel on a daily ongoing basis.
That's why it's so important you learn
how to cycle your carb intake.
