Changing Keto to Cyclic 101
What do you guys say?
I'v been on CKD for exactly four weeks now. I weigh 154. If I had to guess, I was around 12 percent. I continued my diet untill now that I am 147. I don't think I have been catabolic at all since my strenght and muscle size is reletively the same as before.
Anyway, it worked and I'm happy so far, but lately I'v realized that fat loss has been slowed down.
I figured it could be because my insulin levels are very low since my body fat is quit low and I only carb up 1.5 days. I'm thinking of changing my diet to Cyclic 101, where i go:
High carbs
Low carbs
No carbs
Now my goal is to lower my body fat untill I am pleased. I have mad genetics for bulking and I could add mass and strength very easily, therefore, I decided to shredd to the bones (something I have never been able to do) and then bulk. I cannot wait untill I bulk, but I'll suffer.
will this rapid my fat loss since my insulin will boost back up or will I stress my overall fat loss since I am used to the CKD?
Also, can someone point out about fat intake during 101. I'm a bit confused.

are you getting better results cycling than you were getting from keto? how hard is the diet to follow? are the high carb days anything like cheat days?

the high carb days on 101 r alot more strict then on CKD. CKD allows u to munch out on simple carbs at the begning ofyour carb up and complex ur way up.
But in 101, for best results, complex carbs r the only option.

ok, i read par deus's take on the carb cycling. i didnt see any mention of calories in the entire article and it was written on a cutting diet. do you have to count calories while cycling or are they pretty much disregarded as long as youre eating only til youre full and not beyond? whats the deal on this?

ok this is what i have piked up....
A constanct protein intake of gram per body lb for minumum... Me as anexample wll have 150 g or higher
High carb days don't count, you only make sur eyour protein intake is enough and fat is minimized.
on low carb days, its one carb per body pound.
same protein intake. Not sure bout fat
on No carb days, same protein intake, not sure about fat.

so, no, there is no calorie counting at all? just macronutrient calculations?
