The age old question of clean bulking, I would like to know as well if it really exists.

Right now im doing carb-cycling too (with creatine).

The question is hard, you would have to know your Caloric-burn during workout to plug into a formula, if you ball park it the best thing anyone can give you
is a ball park answer.

Best answer is eat as clean as possible for your Carbs (brocolli + Beans!), For Carb-Cycling its pretty hard to design a workout, since its more personal.
Go through at least 1-week give an update on your status of each day + what w/o you did, then you'll probably get better answers.

Hello????

[determined4000]

4 days lifting

2-3(core training, light cardio/rest)

3420= 23940 weekly calories

4 workout days (h)
2 (medium)
1 (low)

H-3550/day = 14400
M-3420=6840
L-leaves you with 2900

Keep protein and fat constant (as you listed in post1, and increase/decrease carbs to hit cal total)

reps thank you

[Acevedo85]

btw why the increase on high carb days?

???
If protein and fat is constant all 7 days per week, the only way to change calories is to fluctuate carbs. Since you want more energy on workout days, you eat the most calories (and therefore carbs) on those days and less on light days and rest days.

Co sign. I definitely take in more carbs on back and leg day when your lifting the most weight.. Carb cycling is really different for everyone since everyones body responds differently. The main thing is to experiment and see how your body responds and how you feel.
