I have started carb cycling again, and last time I did, I wasn't logging daily, and I cannot for the life of me remember what I did. Just that I had success. I now log daily, and I am keeping my protein around 100g, and fat about 60g. What level should I keep my carbs at on high days vs low? Does anyone know off hand?


Thanks!

    On high carb days I stay around 200g and on low carb days around 90g. I'm 5'6'' and weight 154 pounds.

    Carb nite solution says keep it to 30g...and once a week have a carb overload. Only do it for 6 weeks and then go back to normal. I'm not cycling, I'm just keeping carbs low, so I try and stick to under 130g/day

    Also, subtract your fiber from your carbs to get your NET carbs, gives you a little more room :tongue:
