I don't think that you should carb up on a TKD. The idea of the TKD is to feed your muscles through-out the week (at least from what I understand) so it makes no sense to have a refeed. You won't be depleted so I think it's counter productive.

That is dependent upon how many carbs you get during pre and post workout during the week, and your bodies ability to handle carbs. IMO I would up it 150g for the day and see what that does for you. Then add 25-50g a week if you think you still need more. Then you can find your sweet spot. Remember to drop the fat to a lower level on this day so you are not going into mega calorie teritory.

Why not eat a lower amount of carbs, 150-200, a day and do cardio in the AM on an empty stomach...You dont have to eliminate carbs to lose the fat, you just gotta eat smart....
