Fit's right we really need a breakdown of the macro's and your activity level. I have carb cycled before in about the same manner as you are and I can tell you if you are having hockey practice on a "no carb day" then you are doing more harm than good. Yeah you might shed some fat but you are going to shed a lot of muscle as well. If I were you I would run my high and low carb days on days you have hockey practice and leave the no carb days to days you don't have practice. Like Fit said if you are highly active and have practice often then you can prob get away with running higher carbs and still drop the fat. If you have practice 3-5 days a week, I would drop the no carb day all together and run high/medium carbs on days you have practice and low carbs on your off days.
