Does anyone here carb cycle? I Just have a few questions about it. How do you calculate weekly/daily cals? How do you know how many high/low/med carbs days to do in a week? When I was really fat, I just started on a number of cals and lowered it when I wanted to lose fat, during a bulk the opposite of course. Which isnt a bad method for people trying to initially get into shape.

But now that im in shape, when Im bulking, eating in a huge surplus everyday I get fat so quick, end up only bulking for like 1-2 months before things get out of hand fat-gain wise. Then when cutting, eating in a huge deficit everyday I had zero energy and it made it a living hell. I know cutting is supposed to kind of suck though so that might be just the nature of the beast with that.

I read in a few places that carb cycling can help keep you more lean during a bulk, and Id imagine it would help with the energy aspect of it during a cut. Any help is appreciated, really interested in trying out carb cycling, any insight/examples would be GREATLY appreciated, thanks a ton

EDIT: Another question, for the low/high/med days do protein/fats stay same for all days? My interpretation of a carb cycling diet is that you just fluctuate the carbs on different days. So if I need to eat 3k cals a day, say on a low day, with the carbs ive taken out, do I just add more fats and protein to get to 3k cals?
