    Thinking of doing some carb cycling.

    Anyone have any suggestions on an effective way to do this?

    My workout schedule looks something like this:

    Am Cardio on an empty stomach almost every morning, even if it's light, I like to do SOMEthing.

    Weight training in the evening.
    Mon: Chest/Tri's/Abs
    Tues: Quads/Glutes/Calves
    Wed: Bi's/Tri's/Hamstrings/Abs
    Thur: Shoulders
    Fri: Back/Bi's/Abs

    On Mondays and Thursdays I teach Spinning.

    Sat and Sun I usually just do cardio.

    Morning Sarah!

    just a couple questions- your training tri's 3x week? and bi's 2x? how come?
    have you read TP's article on Carb Cycling? it works very well! and easy to follow. something you may look in to

    Have a super day!

    I do tri's 2 times, not three. My upper body strength is not nearly as nice as it could be, so I'm trying to work hard on that. It works well for me.

    I will check out the article, thanks

    No worries. I am non-functional that early as well.


    Tp's article was fabulous!!! Absolutely EVERYTHING I needed to know about the carb cycling was in there.

    the only thing it didn't tell me was how I will survive on no carb day without my precious oatmeal!!!

    Strength...

    What do you eat for breakfast on a no carb day? I am not sure if egg whites would fill me up enough by themselves.

    Hey girl You will do great!

    Do you like protein powder? Also, remember, you are not limited to breakfast foods at breakfast. Others will be more helpfull since I'm a vegetarian

    Thanks for the breakfast ideas. I'm currently working out what I think would be the most efficient carb cycle, and will post when I'm done. Then you guys can tell me if it works

    No one should ever underestimate the knowledge of others. I love having such a wealth of information here!

    I love veggies.

    I'm doing pretty well so far! I haven't gotten on a scale in a long time, they depress me, but I've been looking thinner.

    Okay, been a while. I get so caught up with work and all...


    I believe I will carb cycle as follows:

    Low/High/No/Low/High/No/Low

    Mon: Chest/Tri's (low)
    Tues: Glutes/Quads/Hams/Abs (High)
    Wed: Cardio Only (No)
    Thurs: Shoulders (Low)
    Fri: Back/Bi's (High)
    Sat: Cardio (No)
    Sun: Cardio (low)


    Does this look okay?
