Carb Cycling do or don't?

Hey everyone. I was just reading some articles written by Chad Waterbury and his theory of carb cycling. He is definetly in favor of it and thinks that it will aid in fat loss, muscle gains, etc. So, I was just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on this and if anyone does utilize carb cycling and how it worked for them. I've never officially carb cycled but I've tried many other nutrition combo's. As for me currently I have a very even or moderate balanced diet and once a week I do eat a higher amount of carbs but they are cleaner carbs.

I carb-cycled to lean down. It's how I got my abs...it's a brilliant way of keeping body fat down while adding lean muscle at the same time.

Try different things. Numbers can always be changed. Do what works for you and your physique.

I have the utmost respect for Chad waterbury. He is extremely knowledgeable and an expert in his field (IMO).

I carb cycle and get great results from it.
