Will they be able to throw the same volume on either source of food?
When you are just dieting to lose weight or at a higher bf%, I think it matters less than if you are getting ript. So when I am at 11% or less bodyfat am I going to be not worried at all where my carbs come from still? Is it really all the same ballgame?
If it is, where's the fucking glory in that? LOL!

Isn't that a matter of this: ?
