*on minute 3:50 – I meant to say 200g of rice, not 100g of rice for the example.
How many carbs do I need to carb load? When should I start my carb load?   Simple sugars or complex carbs? Is fruit good for carb loading the day before a game or will the sugar cause energy spikes? Healthiest type of bread to carb load with? Will eating too many carbs stop me getting a six pack or increase fat?   GAA Lean Body Program:
