I am following Layne's method for preparing for contest, although i am only doing this to get lean i have a couple of questions about the diet portion.

95% of carbs are to be consumed in and around your workout, sometimes i get crazy carb cravings at dinner time because i workout in the mornings. would there be great impact in me consuming some of those carbs at around 9PM, say 10% of my carbs?

Also, on my off days, should i still consume my full diet or leave out some carbs? since 95% are to be consumed around your workout, do i just spread it around on my off days?

Thanks.

eat your carbs whenever you want to...will not make the least bit of difference in your progress assuming you are in a caloric deficit.

At the beginning of my prep I spread out the carbs evenly

Towards the middle/end I have the majority of my carbs around my workout.

At night when I don't have that many carbs I eat so much protein it kills any cravings I have.

Plus I read the less carbs consumed post workout the more prone you are to fat burning for the rest of the evening.
