    What you think of this diet ?

    I will not start this diet now but I'm planning for it so what you think about it.

    Week 1-2 150g carb . Week 3-4. 100g carb.

    Week 5-8 carb cycling 200g-150g-100g-50g-100g-150g-50g.

    Week9-12 5days zero carb Monday 250-300g carb Friday 250-300g carb

    Protein will be 200-300g a day all the 12weeks fats 40-60g

    Height 6.3. Weight 110kg body fat 18%

    Cardio 3-5times a week 45-60 minutes

    Weight lifting 5-6days a week

    No steroid supplements only.

    i think you if you want to see results, you will have to narrow it down more.

    what i mean by that is 200-300g of protein is a big difference, 400 cals

    just need to see how your body responds to everything.

    i say start your plan and reassess in about 2-4 weeks to see how your body is responding.

    Week 1-2 = 150g carbs, 200-300g protein, 40-60g fats = (600 + 800/1,200 + 360/540) = (1,760 - 2,340 calories)

    Won't do the rest, but it's better imo to leave the carb cycling for when you are in about under 12% body fat. At 18%, you can easily lose body fat without carb manipulation as it is for the most part based on calories in vs calories out. Do something that is sustainable long term and not to look at it as a diet, hence why I don't really advocate carb cycling/keto type diets.

    For example, you could eat at around 2,200 calories daily (Since i've estimated your TDEE to be around 2,500 - 2,600) and with the cardio implemented with 3-5 times a week, it should be enough to create a decent sized deficit (at least 500 calories) from you TDEE which will allow you to lose fat at an acceptable rate. Since you are not using any gear, you miss out on the muscle sparing benefits, so cut slowly to preserve muscle mass.

    Personally, I would just drop calories and forget about cardio (perhaps do some little for heart health and such) until fat loss is stalled. As cardio is another tool to aid in creating a larger deficit without foregoing more food.

    Is this example better? Week 1-6 150g carb 200g protein 40g fat. Week 7-12 100g-150 carb 200g protein 30-50g fat. I can go on very low calorie diet but I did it before and I lost a lot of muscle I dont prefer very low calorie
