Thread: Carb cycling confusion

basically im bulking up and im getting around 500g of carbs a day


ive been reading on simply shredded about carb cycling this is what is says il copy and paste :



Cycle Between High & Low Carb Days

One excellent way to keep your metabolic rate up and your body burning fat is to change the amount of carbohydrates you eat on a daily basis. Eating high carbs all the time allows your body to readily store them as bodyfat. Eating low carbs all the time encourages your body to tear down muscle tissue for energy. To get the best of both worlds?keeping your muscle while avoiding bodyfat?schedule a higher-carb day after every three to five low-carb days.

As im bulking i will go for the 3 lower carb days BUT just i am unsure of how low to go on these low carb days?

suggestions?

I feel sooo bad on low carb days that I can't go three in a row ? Instead I like 1 low carb day, then one medium carb day, and the third a all out cheat day (ohhh shit ). Then if I 'm going the wrong way I throw a short fasting day into it ? Then again I don't look good either, so there you go ?
