This is a follow up to my recent post about which workouts are best to build muscle and definition on a lanky body.
I wanted to know what is the best ratio of macronutrients to help this as well. I know clean eating is important, but there is so much conflicting info out there about percentages of macronutrients, 40-30-30 (Zone), 40-40-20 (BFL), 50-25-25, 60-25-15, yada yada yada.
I've been doing 40-30-30 as I feel I can do it pretty easily and not feel deprived. I just want to know that what I'm doing will accentuate the efforts from my strength training and cardio workouts.
I was thinking of getting the Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle e-book that was mentioned, but am on a tight budget at the time. Plus, I'm still nursing my baby, so I don't want to do anything really too restrictive right now, calorie wise.
I'm looking forward to hearing your views.
