Frequently Asked Questions — Carb Cycling Calculator
Why should I try carb cycling instead of standard dieting?+
Standard dieting puts you in a continuous calorie deficit, which eventually slows down your metabolism and burns muscle. Carb cycling "tricks" your metabolism by injecting High-carb days (boosting leptin/metabolism and glycogen for hard workouts) while still burning fat on Low-carb days.
How should I schedule my High and Low days?+
Align High-carb days with your most intense workouts (like Leg Day or heavy lifting). Place Low-carb days on rest days or light cardio days. A common weekly split is: High, Low, Med, Low, Med, High, Low.
