Would you be willing to share with me your reasoning/any research behind carb backloading?
.
I do carb back loading.....And just yesterday I had lunch with a family member who said, "I told my wife I needed to get with you and figure out what you've been doing over the last six months diet wise because it's obviously working when looking at you". That's all the proof I needed that it works.
Or you could just try it yourself and stick to it for a month and see where it gets you. Same with pro hormone usage...you said you didn't want to use it because you wanted people to think you're a "beast" all natural and no PEDs. Why do you give an honest fuck what other people think? I couldn't give two fucks if someone knew I was using PEDs normally, and ESPECIALLY given that I'm using them to get my life back. Why don't you just try it?
I'm not trying to be an ass my man, but some of these posts just scream that you're looking for reasons NOT to do something instead of just trying it for yourself. I find it really absurd that you're concerned about carb back loading and using pro hormones yet you'll use alcohol all during your attempted recovery knowing it's a powerful hormonal and neurosteroid modulator. Doesn't make much sense to me, but just my .02.
Don't take this as an attack, I'm just trying to give you a little tough love to maybe put you on the right path going forward. Libido is the HARDEST thing to get back for most and you're already doing fine in this department. Six months of religious discipline to this protocol and you'd probably never have to mention PFS again bro.

My big thing was just wanting to be able to let others know any type of muscular gains I have made with my body I would have made naturally. It's hard for people starting up into fitness these days to figure out who is legit and who is absolutely wasting your time when you've got average looking guys with tons of knowledge about fitness and jacked looking guys who jump on steroids and barely know the principals of what they're actually doing in the gym or nutrition wise. I've wanted for a long time to be that guy that no one had a doubt about... that was why I held off for so long, but now that I've already ruined that, I may as well do what I need to do to get fully better...
Oh yea, and my reason for holding off on carb backloading I think was just that it's already hard enough for me to try and fit all the calories I need per day to gain weight in throughout the ENTIRE day with my annoyingly fast metabolism... trying to cram in huge portions at night would probably make me vomit on the regular.
While we're on the subject though, there's the fact the guy who originated the diet plan actually denounced it:
John Kiefer Admits Carb Backloading Is Wrong | Fit'n'Flexed
And the fact that there were holes in what was being stated as scientific fact:
Does Carb Backloading Work? A Scientific Review | Muscle For Life
Although I appreciate what CDN has done, his website and his help (and I think he's a smart guy!!!).... he has still failed to show me any studies that convince me it's "great for hormones" and worth throwing up over every night.
The first article you posted is not a working link. And John Kiefer has never denounced his carb back loading plan... Ever
Secondly, you can pretty much find any article to suit your preference on the internet. What counts is Real World experience and the results of other people, myself included. Why don't you try Googling carb back-loading success stories instead? Carb back-loading works. There are plenty of guys on this site alone that use it with great success. Check out the lifelog of scope on this site. That's just one of them.
Keep looking for reasons why you shouldn't do things, and you'll find them. I'm done entertaining this train of thought as it's pointless.
You get what you put into this program. You put half in, you'll get half back.
Tony Robbins has a great quote..." Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start getting excited about what can go right."
Good luck to you.
