Who here is carb cycling? We are using Chris Powell's guidelines to carb cycling, and I don't want to get bored with the food (which is already starting to happen), so I'm looking for some folks to befriend so I can get a variety of food ideas. On M, W, F we eat low carb/low cal (1200+/-). On T, Th, Sa we eat higher carb and 1350+/- calories. On Sunday we get a free day, and can eat whatever we want within reason, to shock our system. I am looking for low carb ideas. Add me if you can help.

    During my last cut, I did a similar thing. Low carbs on cardio only days(Tues, Thurs), and moderate carbs on weight training days (Mon, Wed. and Fri). Then high carb refeed on Sat and Sun.
