This will help feed the muscles and spike insulin levels for optimal protein absorption in the same step. Eating it before a workout or on an off day will just store as fat. Switch out cardio for hiit instead, it's more effective and you can get better results in far less time.

He will only gain fat if hes in a caloric surplus. Water weight yes, fat, no...i believe its 2.7 grams of water for every 1G carbs. You can still have carbs and cut weight without question, its just much faster to cut without them.
What I would consider for your goals is hitting the weights harder, dropping the TRX and start doing fasted LISS (Low Intensity Steady State) cardio. 30 minutes a day, 8-max incline 4mph, 4x a week. Once I introduced this cardio in line with my keto based diet, youll be sure to shred.
