Carb cycling

Kuzin Tarell · 07-30-2007, 02:48 PM

So I was thinking about trying out a carb cycling diet and was thinking of just revolving the high carbs on workout days which is mon/wed/fri.

But yea I am trying to get lean, I am one of those body types where I am weak and skinny yet have a gut, like a skinny fat man.So if I start I was thinking this.

Cals around 2800. My stats are 6 foot 207 lb's and BF is about 19 according to the calipers.

Training days Carbs- 350, Protein -300, Fat-20 on training days ,

Off days Protein 350 ,Carb-0 and fat -50?

How's that look to you guys?

Also I box in between the half hour gap where it is a lot of HIIT cardio where you go 2 minutes hard 30 seconds rest. I will be taking in like 15 grams of BCAA's with my PWO shake. I make it an 80 gram carb shake and a 60 protein shake then just sip half of it in between lifting and boxing. I will just add the BCAA's to the post lifting -pre boxing shake.

I saw update pics of you and what you have been doing so far works, you look alot better and stronger

keep doing what you have been doing cuz it has worked good so far

i think your going to want some more fats in your diet to keep you full. it gets really tiresome to just eat meat all day long. something i do is not eliminate my carbs completely but have little amounts throughout the day. like if i have a chicken sandwich ill take 1 piece of bread and tear it in half. carbs are still low at the end of the day but i dont get super groggy.
