see, my personal reasoning behind this is that you've basically eaten very low gi carbs for weeks on end (with hi gi during and after training), but for those last 4 or so days, its just low gi stuff. I would think having a sudden dump on high gi carbs into the body after what really counts as starvation, would shock the body (in a bad way). Hence I always recommend low gi carbs for the first few hours, then build into the high gi (but in so far as rice and pasta then sugars)
If anyone thinks differently, post it and a discussion shull commence
