We have always been told that to become successful at something find good role models that are already great at what you want to be successful at. Yourself these people or this person, mimic their behavior and actions. By simply doing so you will reap the same benefits that they did. Of which brings me to body building.

This split really works, and I say that from experience. This is usually the split i do when trying to have a lean look. To figure out your 40, 40, 20 split you first have to determine how many calories you should be using a day. Then take the number of and take 40, 40, 20 percent from that number respectively. Later on you divide the amount you get for carbs by 4 because there are 4 calories in every gram of carbs.

This is important to exercise if you need to be able to eat more carbohydrates without hitting spillover. Spillover is a major no no when trying to lose weight with carbs. It occurs when you're body's carb "gas tank" contains large amount and stores any extra carbs as fat. By simply exercising your body requirements more carbs to be used in the muscles.
