    I carb cycle.

    So on days when I eat zero to low complex carbs AND exercise, I can easily have over 500+. On days when I eat 100+ grms in complex carbs and don't exercise, I will be over. I watch my proteins and complex carbs more than I watch calories.

    Yesterday was a low carb day and a double workout. I had over 1000 calories remaining. Today was low carbs and one workout...I have over 500 left over.

    I'd love to see some sources talking about the 'dangers' of higher than RDA protein intake.

    Also, while I rarely if ever eat below goal, that's mostly because I use the database merely as an easy way to calculate my macros which I then put into an excel spreadsheet I made. To each their own.
