Hey you're from Chicago too. It feels like I'm the only guy in Chicago on a CKD.

Back to your question, you need the carb-up to refill glycogen. Otherwise your body turns to protein for energy, which is a big no-no in bodybuilding.

At your weight I reckon you could get away wth extended periods between carB ups.
