This is why i’m here i guess, everything I do is from internet research so it’s all bro science, so hopefully i can fix this kinda stuff up.
I read that apple juice/sugar will help with the help post workout with muscle breakdown/repair. Should i drop the apple juice and just have the glutamine? The applejuice is in my calorie/macro allocation.
That's how you do it brother. You notice fat being added and make the diet changes.
I'm so anti sugar, but it definitely helps with repair, I was bulking in my early 30s without any peds just huge amounts of post workout sugar carbs like 60g , grew big also put on shit ton of fat. But was never sore and workout 7 days a week.
Now I'd eat an apple or 2 instead get the fibre in as well to avoid huge spike in BG levels
There is 0 evidence that sugar helps with repair or any sorts. @Freki
Apple juice will do nothing but spike your blood sugar, @neilb it will not help you recover or repair.
Cheers man, i’ll drop it from my intake and add some more potatoes to make up difference.

Your quads are coming in nicely, very thick.
and the food share perfect, what do you think were your macros?
Hey man, from your suggestions i’m now going for 40/30/30. To achieve this i’m dropping the post workout 250ml apple juice and having an extra 30grms of whey protein. I need to run this thorough myfitnesspal app but doing some quick math on the calculator this gets me close at about 3300cal.Your quads are coming in nicely, very thick.
I’ll eat these same meals everyday except for maybe one day on weekend if i go out with wife and i’ll drop my spag bol for a steak and chips or something like that.

Hey mate, sorry fairly new to this. Do you mean performing the lift or like a picture post workout?
