To start, Gerry asks Julian to address everything carbohydrates. From myths about not eating carbs after 5 p.m., whether carbs are the reason for weight gain and the importance of carbs for active athletes.
From there, Julian tackles topics such as how much protein you need to gain weight, the importance of nutrient timing for improving your performance in the weight room and in your sport, meal replacement shakes and more.
