A minimum of 1.0 g of carbs per pound of bodyweight per day is recommended to support muscle gain on a hypercaloric diet. Anything much lower would reduce insulin secretion and necessitate such a high fat and protein intake that muscle gain would be much more difficult and much less effective. Gaining muscle on lower carb intake is possible, but less probable. As we have discussed, the performance and especially glycogen- and insulin-mediated potentiation of anabolism that carbs promote lead us to recommend their maximal consumption (within CCH) for optimal muscle growth on a hypercaloric diet.
