I didnt bother reading this thread, but Ill just post my answer...YES , athletes and weight trainers need carbs. Can you train with out them? SUre, people, lots of people do it every day (keto diets, UD2.0 etc). But athletes, trainiers, bb'ers need carbs to perform as effeciently as possible. Its more about carbohydrate timing, and the type of carbs you take in that are important.
