Description

Carbs aren’t the enemy — they’re fuel. And if your goal is to build muscle, going low-carb might be one of the worst mistakes you can make.

In this episode, I break down why cutting carbs tanks your energy, crushes your recovery, and leaves your training flat. We’ll talk about the role carbs play in strength, performance, and growth — and why the obsession with “low-carb everything” keeps lifters spinning their wheels.
