I often check out a forum for bodyweight exercises because I do a lot of bodyweight exercises as part of my dry land training.
Anyway, many people on that board are all into this low carb stuff. I tried it out for 6 months but had the feeling that I don't have enough energy if I don't eat enough complex carbs like grains(pasta, rice, bread etc).
Is it just me or do other swimmers experience the same?
Just wondering...
A few years back I tried the low carb fad - South Beach style stuff - I ended up yo-yoing and ended up over 250, not good. Went back to basics. Balanced diet - good carbs, more grains and beans, low fat (but the good fat), healthy amounts of protien, lots of water - and a steady diet of chlorinated goodness.
