For this article, I'm going to do something unusual for me and cut out all the fluff and get straight to the point. I'm a man who loves his fluff, in everything such as training and nutrition articles, my pillows, and smeared between two pieces of white bread to give the peanut butter some company! (This is a peanut butter-fluff sandwich, make one after reading this.) But i'll leave it out for this one, and get right to the point because inquisitive minds are dying to know. What is Carb Cycling? Carb cycling is a method of fat loss that works through manipulation of dietary carbohydrates. It can sometimes be a bit complex and tricky, but for the sake of time, it's as simple as this: On Days You Lift Weights EAT A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF CARBS On Days You Don't Lift Weights Keep the carbs to a minimum. There you have it. As simple as pie. Which you can have if you've trained with weights at a reasonable intensity levels. There's definitely A LOT more behind the mechanisms of this very effective fat-loss method, and I may not be well versed enough with the scientific lingo to make a strong case for the exact reasons on how it works. Instead, take a look at some of these well-researched and well-composed article on the method. FAT BURNING MACHINE: EASY CARB CYCLING FOR A BETTER BODY CARB CYCLING FOR FAT LOSS A BEGINNERS GUIDE TO CARB CYCLING Carb Cycling: A DAILY MEAL PLAN TO GET STARTED I personally implement this method from time to time with lots of success, especially during cutting phases when fat-loss progress starts to stall out.
so if you're someone looking to find a diet method that's sustainable and doesn't restrict whole food groups, give this method of cycling carbohydrates a shot. You won't be disappointed.
