im interested because im cuttin with a super low carb diet right now, less than 15g a day and wondering how much better these style will work, so keep us posted lightwayt

i would never have a meal of just pro/carb.. the blood glucose isnt nearly as stable as if u added some good fats in there to aid in digestion.

definetly throw in some yogurt for good bacteria.

i would never spike insulin pwo, and sure as hell wouldnt use dextrose to do it.
i'd actually ommit protein shakes as much as possible.

i'd incorporate metamucil in as many meals as possible to aid in digestion/blood sugar control.

i talked w/ goose about my carb cycling methods before and my nutrionist has me go in reverse i.e. go ketoic for bout 3 days then gradually incorp carbs in for 2-3 days as in a GRADUAL REFEED type of protocol... where as most do a high med low low type of regimen.

basically right now im dieting and i keep my cals in a 1200 caloric deficite for bout 5-6 days then have a refeed where i eat pretty much any and everything i want assuming i dont go over 600-800 calorie excess of maintaince.

i ran the high, med, low carb cycling diet but i had my rotations changing, and getting more difficult as the diet progressed. I had great success as you can see in my member pics under MY TRANSFORMATION. I enjoyed it and i felt amazing, kept my muscle mass and leaned out to 6% bf...although it may not look like it because of my excess skin.

[smokeyd]

got any good books on carb cycling you guys know of? or post for that matter.
