For those asking me about my carb cycling via NHE, I've got my book here with me at work today for more exact rations. Here's what I do:
Low carb days: less than 25 grams of carbs per meal -- 30-60 grams total per day, moderate to high fat, protein 15-50 grams per meal with no limit (I try for 1 gr per lb of body weight)
Carb load days: less than 30 grams of carbs during the day, moderate fat and protein. On LAST meal of the day....carb load occurs: greater than 40 grams of carbs, with no upper limit. Carbs should be 70% starchy carbs. Fat on this last meal is less than 20 grams and protein less than 20 grams.
My schedule would look like this:
MON - low carb
TUES - low carb
WED - carb load
THUR - low carb
FRI - low carb
SAT - low carb
SUN - carb load
Again, this is following Rob Faigin's Natural Hormonal Enhancement and this is just a VERY brief synopsis -- the book is very detailed and technical.
