🚨 PSA: Carbs aren’t out here plotting to make you fat overnight🚨 That “overnight 2kg gain” after pizza + wine? 👉 It’s glycogen + water, not fat. Your body literally soaks up carbs into your muscles + liver, and every gram of glycogen drags ~3g of water with it 💧 (hello morning scale jumps - but hopefully after you read this not the tantrums). Now add salt (sodium) into the mix 👉 sodium pulls water into your bloodstream and tissues to keep fluid balance stable. More sodium = more water retention = even bigger temporary scale jumps. So that Monday morning bloat after a weekend of pasta + crisps + cocktails? It’s glycogen + water + sodium all working together — not a “fat explosion.” - just get back to your normal routine, food and training and it’ll all level out in a couple days. Unless you’re smashing a consistent calorie surplus with zero training stimulus, those carbs aren’t magically turning into fat. And if you are in a surplus for hypertrophy? Then congrats — you’re fuel...
