Carb Timing

Elite athletes have always practiced a concept called Carb Timing. Eating the right carbs before competition or one hour after workouts increases performance and spikes insulin in order to accelerate muscle repair. (Right, there are times you should spike insulin)

Carb timing should be practiced at low RMR times also. Or when you metabolism is slowed and energy production is minimized.

Nighttime would be a good time to watch intake amounts.
