1. What is the ratio for protein, carb, fat? I'm seeing things from 40:40:20 to 60:20:20 to 40:20:40.
Normally people will put it this way ---> carb:protein:fat
I practice 55:25:20. Right now not considering cutting yet. If during cutting stage, I will try 40:30:30
2. Is it based on kcal or gram of each of the component in the food?
Based on calories
3. Would the ratio change for different stages of BB e.g. losing weight, bulking, maintenance?
Refer to 1. Cutting will go to the extreme of very low carb. But since I'm not competing. I wont go to the extreme
4. How often do you change your ratios? Weekly, monthly, quarterly, half yearly?
Every week
5. What triggers you to adjust your protein, carb, fat intake? Visual inspection of muscle or body fat count?
Based on target. If bulking more carb, if cutting, less carb. Protein must be sufficient anytime
6. Is the ratio based on what is consumed in total per day or per every meal?
Per day. But it's good to incorparate every meal to be a balance meal. I wouldny say eating fruit only is a complete meal.
7. Do you consider taking low GI food or a mix of low GI + med GI food?
I've seen some food plans from ppl in the Members Journal forum. Does anyone of you go for blood tests to check if your liver functions checks out alrite i.e. within the normal range specified in the report?
Take to take low GI as often as you can. Exception for after weight training.
Recently have medical checkup, my blood pressure is normal.
