Today I was reading about carb cycling and it's effects for weight loss, now I'm going to try a version of my own.
This is the schedule I've came up with that I'm experimenting with this week. Your suppose to watch your fat too on carb cycling, but that's a bit much for me to had.. I'm watching carbs and calories.
No Carb.. lower than 25 carbs
Low Carb.. lower than 75 carbs
High Carb.. 150 to 200 carbs
Day 1: No carb
Day 2: Low carb
Day 3: High carb
Day 4: No carb
Day 5: No carb
Day 6: Low carb
Day 7: High carb
Has anyone had any experience with this?

I have read about carb cycling, but did not know the numbers of carbs that you mentioned. Thanks for telling us about it! I usually just keep my carbs medium, most of the time. During the past month, I had five days of high carbs 150-182 grams. The other days were my medium carbs of 105-149 grams.

I've done it, but not quite in that way. Cortisol is higher in the morning which makes it easier to store carbs as fat. I've done it where I have a bullet proof coffee in the morning, high protein at lunch, medium carbs at dinner, and a carb snack in the evenings. I liked it that way. It made it so I slept better at night at low calories. The other method, as you've laid out above, is supposed to help with a final cut when body fat is very low.... about 15% for women and 10% for men - if I remember that right.
