I'd say carb timing is more important for me. If I eat carb anywhere between 1-6 hours before a work out, I'm lethargic as fukk and prone to crashing/wanting to nap.

But if I carb load a good 12+ hours (night before) and train on an empty stomach in the morning/after noon, I feel like a fkn god. Literally feels like I have unlimited cardiovascular energy.

Yea. Pretty fuking crazy how what you eat can be the difference between you gassing out in 5 min or you sustaining your energy level for 1+ hour.

Yeah same. Fasted workouts after a carbfest the night/day before, thats gotta be the best way to train by far IMO.
"The flowers bloom, then wither... The stars shine and one day become extinct. This earth, the sun, the galaxies and even the big universe, someday will be destroyed. Compared with that, the human life is only a blink, just a little time. In that short time - people are born, laugh, cry, fight, are injured, feel joy, sadness, hate someone, love someone. All in just a moment. And then, are embraced by the eternal sleep called death."

I read herbivore animals actually convert carbs into protein before putting it in their bloodstream.
