Cycle Carbs?

[NaturalBeauty]

Hey everyone...I'm new to the forums and just had a real quick question. Does anyone here cycle their carbs? Its something I'd like to try but Im not sure where to begin. How many days low carb?...how many days high? Does cycling carbs really make a difference? Any books out there I can read on the subject? Thanks

Hi NB - Welcome!

Yes, here are a couple of books on this CCD --(just rec'd mine from Amazon):

1) Carb Cycling - Dr. Roman Malkov (Physcian, Excercise Physiologist
specializing in sports nutrition ACSM)

2) Fat Burning Diet - Jay Robb (Clinical Nutritionist & Certified
Fitness Trainer)

A few Websites: (Google carb cycling diets or seach at these sites)
www.cyclingdiet.com
www.bodybuilding.com
www.bodybuildingforyou.com
www.jayrobb.com (books, proteins etc)
www.ehow.com

Emphasis areas:
Basically eating clean, lose weight, lose weight/gain muscle; more energy, breaking plateaus etc. This should get you going...

ETA-
I just started researching this myself so I'm giving you the info that I'm reading right now.


Enjoy,
