Sport How many carbs are we allowed?

[benelson101]

What is the average amount of carbohydrate that someone performing 1 hour weights, 45 mins cardio per day should be taking in?

just did one of those online planner things and it says i had 334g, and that sounds a lot to me.

thanks

on that point, how much saturated fat is allowed for weight loss?

You are trying to fat loss and lean muscle gain right?

If so then try to work on the scale this

40% Protein
20% Fat
40% Carbs

That is the basica formula.

I would recommend downloading Crosstrainer (free for 30 days) and keep track of everything. It tells you how many grams of what you get a day. I really do think the key is writing it down.
