The purpose of Monday & Tuesday is glycogen depletion. Then you go into a carb load phase with heavy lifting, then phase back down to low carb/depletion.

You lift weights 4 days a week (Mon, Tue, Thu, Sat). Thursday is the only day where cardio is required, iirc. It's optional on Wed & Sun and strongly recommended on Mon & Tues (YEAH RIGHT!!).
