Protein/Carb/Fat Ratio??

Correct, for the most part cycling is an easy way to avoid it IMO.

Yeah the usual Xmas day lunch followed by a nap

That is why I tend to say it is more of a thing that you can gauge after a couple of days, not just a one off meal.
 
Decided to drop a few carbs and try to increase fat/protein....feel shocking after smashing the carbs
 
Max - what is it that causes us to feel like a nap after a big meal? Something about the liver being too busy and not supplying enough glucose to the brain? lol

It's called Xmasdayitius.

It effects hormone levels and increases the sleep causing hormones that just fucking lazy and tired because we don't want to clean up. We purposely eat way to much and only realize that once it is too late.

Was a serious question, I get this quite a bit even if meal isn't that large. Trying to work out if a particular macro/micro doesn't like me too much or if I'm allergic to something.

Cool, for the most part it will be a combination of Insulin and Leptin hormonal response that will cause that feeling.

Remedy, eat a smaller meal
 
I've been using this thread (in particular post #2 by Max B) for one of my uni assignments on nutrition.

Just wondering if there are any studies or journal articles that I could use to support these methods?

Busy really busy with uni assessments lately, but I'm still lurking the boards.

I've had a look at that thread and already used some information from it, although I'm just looking for 'scholarly' references as I don't think they'll accept me referencing Ausbb - Australian BodyBuilding - Powered by vBulletin or MaxBrenner as a valid reference

I'm mainly just looking for any references or guidelines to support the values they indicate for macronutrient needs in those posts e.g. something to support this:

Found on BB.com

I've referenced a journal article I found on MaxB's blog about 2.3g of protein per/kg BW to maintain LBM, although if there was a study that included P/F/C's all in one it would be perfect. I have looked myself but come up with nothing so far.
 

Aww well it's good to see you again young lad!

Yeah I was going to say, go directly to the source, Max Brenner himself will be able to link you to information sources for this stuff for your university assignment. Good luck and don't stay away so long next time!
 
Mate unfortunately there is not one Gotta joint the dots individually so to speak...but just tell them I said so and thats science bitches!
