How many carbs do i need?

[StuckInBako]

I was wondering what the minimum amount of carbs I can assume and still see good results. I weigh 170lbs and i already have a hard enough time consuming the 170 grams of protien each day with out getting to full.(only if i still smoked pot, eating wouldn't be a problem) Also i don't do any cardio so hopefully this will help to keep the amount needed down.

I take the following supplements

Multi's
ON Whey
Glutamine pre and post wo
Creatine pre and post wo
Dextrose-post workout

My post work out shake consists of
2 scoops on whey
1 1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1 banana
2 tbs peanut butter
1/2 cup oats

You need to eat more, small meals each day. Start out eating every 3 hours. You need to get about 300g of carbs if you want to get some results. You need to aim for your 170g of protein, at least. Eat bigger to get bigger. If you are lifting hard, you don't need the cardio to keep yourself from getting fat. If you are eating every 3 hours at least, your metabolism will stay high throughout the day, as well.

Avoid the fat in your pwo shake, it slows the absorbtion of protein and carb replenishment

It looks like you want to bulk. I'd go with 2.5 grams for every lb of LBM. Also add some dextrose or maltrodextrin to that shake. You want a fast acting carb PWO
