    Exclamation please help with my carb cylce outline!!

    Hey guys needs your guidance yet again.... I read a post and i know you recomend typically 1,2, and300 carbs, but im still trying to grow and build my base while losing BF so i think those numbers my be alittle low for me... I was thinking something like this ... and stats are 6'3 235(down from 240 in aweek by cruising at 2-250carbs) prob around 15-17%bf and looking to get back to 12% while still trying to gain in the gym

    Low day : 175-200 carbs.. 1.75grams protein per lb
    Med day: 300 carbs a day... 1.5 grams protein /lb
    High day: 4-420 carbs.... 1.25 protein/lb
    How high should my fats be 5-60 grams?

    My food sources: Carbs: Brown rice,whole wheat begal(ocasionally) potatoes, OATMEAL, bannas, gatorade(pwo), Zone bars(preworkout)
    Proteins: Eggs, cottage cheese, chicken, tuna, turkey burgers, salmon burgers
    Fats: peanut butter natural, eggs

    My split
    M:Legs, Bis, cardio 20 mins
    T:Off
    W;Chest, abs
    T: Cardio 20 mins
    F:Back,calves,abs
    S: 20mins cardio
    S:Shoulders,tris

    Hows that number of carbs look? too high too low? What days would you match them up with my schedule?...When should i have my cheat meals? I know lots of questions but i wanna make this perfect.... Ive been cruising at 2 or 250 carbs this week cuz i took off from the gym for a week and ate clean this whole week and cant belive how much bloat i lost... thanks playas

    there are certainly different schools of thought on this,

    You want to have higher intake of fat, and much lower intake of carbs (for example, eat lots of meat) in order to force your body into a state of ketosis

    If your going to the complexities that it seems like in your diet, I would simply count calories.

    *** Ok thats damn near 1.5 gs protein for a training day.... on non training days when i cut the carbs to 150-200 figure ill bump protein to 1.75 or 2gs per BW..... how good does this look? More or less fat? .... Like i said im just trying to cut out the BF not "cut" because i still need to gain muscle at my stage!!..I also think ill thorw in maybe one day a week where i challenge myself to only 100-125 carbs for the day....
