you body weight naturally flucuates all the time. think about it, if you weigh yourself, then drink a glass of water, then way yourself again, you are going to weigh slightly more. That's why it's not a good idea to weigh everyday. try once every week or 2.0 -
Are you talking going low for 3 days, higher for 1? Calorie cycling or carbohydrate cycling?0
-
Yes I think it goes something like that, you keep shifting every few days so you burn fat faster. I wanted to knew if anyone has done this before. Thx0
-
I think many body builders cycle their carbs, either doing a 3 day low, 1 day high, or doing 3 weeks cutting with low-carb, followed by 3 high days and back to low cycle... I don't know about calorie cycling.0

Some sites call it zig-zagging. www.naturalphysiques.com/tools Clik on calculators & tools.
Basically, if your regular daily intake is 1700 cals
Day 1 = 1700 cals
Day2 = 1800 cals
Day 3 = 1600 cals
Day 4 = 1800 cals....etc...
This is a bit simplistic, but I'm sure you get the idea. The website has a lot more info.0 -
does anyone have results one calorie shifting zig zag. who love to here from you.0
-
I tried it, found it very frustrating to keep track of, especially when also exercising.0
-
This sounds like the diet that's described in "Crack the Fat Loss Code" ... it worked wonders for my friend, but I don't have the willpower to stick to it!0
-
I don't follow a strict zig-zagging schedule, but my diet naturally tends to be that way. Over my calories one day, right on the next, a couple hundred under the next.
I hear zig-zagging is a great way to break a plateau.0 -
Thx for the reply's
I know it has worked for some people. My thing is after you are on the same diet for a few months, you kind of get stuck. The scale kind of stays still. I was looking for a change or advise from you guys, maybe this has happened to some of you.
