I'm starting a cutting diet on Monday, and I've got a high body fat % (The calculator online says 17 to 33%. I've never gotten it measured, and not sure how to do it myself.
I've read that when you're in a deficit, you should "Carb up" every 5 days or so (depending on exercise, and your fatigue level/plateauing) to keep your body from going into "starvation mode" and storing everything as fat.
Is this universal? I know everyone doesn't do this, but being that my metabolism is basically non-existent is it a good idea?
stats:
