Carbohydrate Cycling

Okay. This is something I have not yet before attempted.  I just spend 3 hours putting a new meal plan together.  From tomorrow I will start to follow this. 

Basically you have High carb and Low carb days. The simple reason for this is dropping body fat while preserving muscle mass.  

Don't try this yet, let's first see If I get fat okay?  This diet is designed  on MY stats, so If you attempt, remember to modify with YOUR stats. 

The Low Carb Phase [1.2P 0.5F 0.6C]

The low carb phase of the diet can be set up easily with the following method.

(a) multiply your body weight in pounds by (1.2) - this is your protein level in grams
Example - 130lb * 1.2 = 156g protein = 624 calories

(b) multiply your body weight in pounds by (0.5) - this is your fat level in grams
Example - 130lb * 0.5 = 65g fat = 585 calories

(c) multiply your body weight in pounds by (0.6) - this your carbohydrate level in grams
Example - 130lb * 0.6 = 78g carbs = 312 calories

The High Carb Phase [1.4P 0.3F 1.4C]

The high carb phase of the diet can be set up easily with the following method.

(a) multiply your body weight in pounds by (1.4) - this is your protein level in grams
Example - 130lb * 1.4 = 182g protein = 728 calories

(b) multiply your body weight in pounds by (0.3) - this is your fat level in grams
Example - 130lb * 0.3 = 40g fat = 364 calories

(c) multiply your body weight in pounds by (1.4) - this your carbohydrate level in grams
Example - 130lb * 1.4 = 182g carbs = 728 calories

How I will be doing this. I worked out a High carb day, and a Low carb day meal plan.  I use the low carb day practically the whole week, except on Monday , which is leg day and Thursday , which is leg day.  The reason for doing this, I burn more calories during leg workouts, bigger muscles, need more repair and more carbs. 

What's more to say.... hmmm Hold thumbs I dont get fat? lol...... Reckon it needs at least 3 weeks to see if it works.
