What is Carb Cycling?
Carb cycling alternates between high and low carbohydrate days to optimize body composition, preserve muscle, and enhance metabolic flexibility. High carb days fuel intense training and boost metabolism, while low carb days enhance fat burning.
📈 High Carb Days
Intense training days
- • Replenish glycogen
- • Support muscle growth
- • Boost metabolism (leptin)
- • Enhance performance
⚖️ Moderate Days
Light training days
- • Balance energy needs
- • Transition between extremes
- • Support recovery
- • Maintain consistency
📉 Low Carb Days
Rest or light activity
- • Enhanced fat oxidation
- • Improved insulin sensitivity
- • Create calorie deficit
- • Metabolic flexibility
Benefits of Carb Cycling
Muscle Preservation
High carb days prevent muscle loss during fat loss phases
Metabolic Flexibility
Train your body to efficiently use both carbs and fats
Hormone Optimization
Prevent metabolic slowdown from chronic dieting
Sustainable Approach
More flexible than constant low-carb dieting
Who Benefits Most?
✓ Active individuals who train 3+ days per week
