My motto: always strive for becoming the best and hopefully you'll settle for great... striving for average often leaves you unsatisfied and disappointed. My father taught me this concept while I was in High School... he told me to work for an A and then possibly settle for a B... working for mere passing usually leaves you on the brink of failing.

In many ways, working on altering your body composition and becoming more athletic teaches valuable life lessons.
Your Father gave GREAT advice! So far this carb cycling has been very interesting...I can't believe I had a hard time getting enough carbs in on the high carb day! I was also surprised that it wasn't that hard on the no carb days. I think the best part of this is the changing up of my menu to fit the different days, I quite enjoy this so far
My only problem is I have had to change up my w/o routine. I used to do full body 3 days a week and now I feel I have to do a four day split...
Mon. up. body Tues. Low. body Wed. off Thurs. Up. body Fri. Low. body
and just not sure how many exercises per body part ...I've been doing 2 for each so I guess I'll see how that works out.
