“You Think a 180LB Person Needs 1000G Carbs to Grow?”: Bodybuilding Beast Quashes a ‘Ridiculous’ Fan Enquiry About His Carbs Intake

Iain Valliere has recently taken to his Instagram again to amuse and interact with his fans. The Canadian bodybuilder has been in popular consciousness ever since he won the Silver medal at Arnold Classic in 2021, just behind Nick Walker. In his Instagram session, he encountered a slightly hilarious question from a fan and answered it in a quirky fashion.

Very recently, Valliere started his Instagram session called ‘Ask me a question’, as most popular celebrities often do. They take each question from a fan and answer as many as they possibly can. Valliere was particularly generous with his time and sincerely replied to most (if not all) of his fans. One fan’s question, in particular, struck him as odd and silly.

Here’s how Iain Valliere tackled the silly, humorous question from a fan

The fan asked Valliere on his Instagram, “Is it necessary to eat 1000 grams of carbs to grow?” as if that’s the utmost requirement for a ripped physique. Valliere of course, didn’t find the question to be particularly a great one or even an interesting one. He replied, “This is a ridiculous question. Of course, it isn’t. You think a 180lb person needs 1000g carbs to grow? Don’t be silly lol”.

The last abbreviated word famously stands for ‘Laugh out Loud’, indicating that the question was subject to laughter. Valliere shared every Q&A in each slide of his Instagram stories with no further text or audio/video attached.

If the fan asked in a sincere attempt or to deliberately arouse a humorous situation, one cannot be sure. The tone of the question does lean towards the former. Many people outside the bodybuilding world, might not know the precise dietary requirements for a bodybuilder. Although Valliere’s answer indicates that it is more of a sensible thing to guess and the assumption isn’t even close enough.

The necessary amount of carbs required per day, and Valliere’s other answers

General guidelines prescribe a maximum of 200 carbs for a healthy young man, weighing somewhere between 100-200 lbs. However, given his ripped, beast-like physique, it can be assumed that Valliere’s consumption could be anywhere from 250-300 grams. He did not reveal his exact carbs requirement in the story. But 1000 grams of carbs is way over the top for any normal human (bodybuilder or not) and Valliere is right in replying with a rhetorical question.

He also answered several other fans’ questions related to upcoming bodybuilding championships and everything else required for bodybuilding. His answers were, “Never” to do steroids, and ‘”I wouldn’t” say it’s safe putting gear in your suitcase while flying’ to “Genetic Variance is massive”. The last answer was a reply to a fan’s question, “How much muscle can you build naturally?”
