I am going to the beach this weekend and don't want my deflated glycogen depleted look I am sporting right now.
What is the optimal way to carb load? Any rules to achieve the maximum amount of glycogen in the muscles. Things I am considering in my questioning are:
-Should a carb load be done in 1 day? 2days?....
-Should one evenly distrbute the carbs throughout the day(s), e.g. 50g carbs per meal?
-What is the formula to figure out how many carbs one needs? (I am assuming it is done by bodyweight and current bf%)
Any tips are appreciated!
