Before reading this, Keep in mind I am not 17, I meant to put 27 and don’t know how to change the age.
I know I posted this same thread in the fat loss section, but I only got one response, and that dude was set that there wasn’t benefits from carb cycling. I do understand that have a calorie deficit is the only way to lose fat. But I am still trying this out 1. To see how I feel and if I like it due to being able to assess my physique with full muscle glycogen, 2. To see if the boost in leptin levels has any impact on my fat loss, and 3. Because for me, I have found that I am actually more likely to follow a more rigid diet, when I have even a little flexibility I tend to snack mindlessly, so I want to see if doing this helps at all. My maintenance calories are ~2900 cal, I was eating 2400 cal, but my progress is beginning to stall. Part of this is the little bit of snacking I have been doing, but I know that g body is also adapting to my intial deficit. Therefore My weekly calorie intake for this plan is just a bit Lower than my daily 2400 cal Intake now.
Current body weight: 175 lbs, 5 ft 6 in, 13-14% bodyfat
Macros are: P/C/F
Monday: moderate 200g/200g/75g
Tuesday: low 200g/100g/90g
Wednesday: high 140g/650g/25g
Thursday: low same as Tuesday
Friday: moderate same as Monday
Saturday: low same as Tuesday
Sunday: low or moderate, unsure yet
I am unsure about what to do Sunday because it is my rest day. However, since I have to work out super early in the morning, I will have next to no carbs in my system in my Monday workout, which is one of my tougher workouts (1st push day of the week, second is free refeed). So should I make Sunday a 3rd moderate day, or leave it at a 4th low day and just train with my preworkout carbs in my system (about 35 g carb). Also, on my low carb days, is it okay that I am upping the fats slightly, so my calorie deficit isn’t too big. Again I am not looking for people to try and steer me away from trying this, I just want to see how my body reacts and if I prefer it Over a constant calorie deficit.
Sorry for the long thread.
