Is it okay to have low fiber one day and high fiber the next? On my no carb days I only have about 20g of fiber (which is a bit low for me).

Just wondering if I could get an opinion on this...
I'm a 5'9 149lbs male, I cut from about 175 using carb cyling on this schedule:
Mon: Low/ Chest and tri
Tue: High/ Back and bi
Wed: No/ Off
Thur: Low/ Shoulders
Fri: High/ Legs
Sat: Low/ Cardio
Sun: No/ Off
I don't want to lose any more weight but also don't want to bulk just yet with summer coming up and I also like being leaner so I was thinking of either just upping carbs and cals on my high days or should I replace a low carb day with a high one and do something like:
Mon: High/ Chest and tri
Tue: No/ Off
Wed: High/Back and Bi
Thur: Low/ Shoulders
Fri: High/ Legs
Sat: Low/ Cardio
Sun: No/ Off

Hi all, Im same as above.
I have read through the posts.. My matenaince is 2000cal, therefore I've been eating 1500 daily and training 4-5x a week split routine..
I weigh 209lbs, 6ft 2.
My weight seems to have stopped falling off, Im about 18%BF and want to get lower.
I understand that, I should be eating no carbs on rest days.. (1500cal) and mid range, for low (1800) and Just over maintenance (2100) on high carb days?
All very confusing, and I feel quite guilty eating those carbs if i do it? but it seems to work for all of you?
My body type is endomorph therefore i gain weight easily.
I have realised that I replaced an apple (only fruit intake in a day) for a can of tuna thinking more protein is better..
seems that I was wrong and need the apple.. and it seems that ive been training hard, with constant no carb days.. consisting of brocoli, fish, oats in morning though. pre / post whey shakes and green beans!
can yall give me some heads up?
SAT/SUN is my rest.. therefore the others would be split.. I usually do cardio inbetween body parts.. wrong idea? should i do HIT on a separate day?
PM is ok cheers boys

I had also hit a weightloss plateau. I started my contest prep on June 1 at 234 lbs and was doing great. 10 weeks later I hit a plateau at 210 lbs and stayed there for 2 weeks. I have incorporated a refeed after my Friday workout last week and have now started carb cycling. I had researched carb cycling as well as posted a thread to get help on breaking the plateau. Carb Cycling and the refeed was what was recommended. Looking forward to posting results. I still have 10 weeks left of my cut and will keep progress updated.

But you can take it, can't ya, big man? What we have here is a rare opportunity for me to cut loose, and show you just how powerful I really am" - Superman

I read almost every post on this thread, the articles here on Bb.com, and I tried to go to the links provided but they appear to not work. I want to try carb cycling to drop by body fat and break this plateau that I have been for quite some time.
My stats 26yr old Female - 5'2" - 132lbs - 25BF% - I workout 5-6 days a week. My Calorie intake is 1455 - Macros that I'm currently on are 164g C / 127g P / 32g F. 45/35/20.
I came up with this for carb cycling:
Mon (High Carb) AM cardio - Chest & Tris
Tue (Low carb) AM Cardio - Legs
Wed (Low Carb) Back, Traps, Biceps & Shoulders
Thur (Low Carb) Am Cardio - Chest & Triceps
Fri (High Carb) Legs
Saturday (No Carb) Cardio & Abs
Sunday (No Carb) Off
High Carb: 184gC / 184g P / 40g F
Low Carb: 79g C / 158g P / 66g F
No Carb: Only the carbs from greens / 127g P / 32g F
Please let me know if I'm doing this right or where I need to make changes. I also need to make sure I'm eating enough or if I'm over eating since my goal is fat loss. Thanks.

I'm not sure if this thread is still active or if there's a more recent one...
But I've dropped allot of weight in a short amount of time
About 10kg in 6 weeks. From 85 to about 75 6 foot
My bodyfat is still quite high although noticeably leaner no abbs.
Getting worried about my weight dropping much lower as I don't want to be a skinny fuark.
I've been researching carb cycling but being told different things on each website.... Really confusing me
Could someone help me out with the calculations? reps for lifeeeeeee and allot of love.
At the moment I'm on 2050 45% 230 carb 25% 57g fat and 30% 154g protein
Just put it up from 1800 cals as dropped allot.
Will it be different on each day of the week or just two different days?
anyone help me out?Only misc on incognito mode crew

I am not sure if I am posting on the correct thread. I have been playing with carb cycling for a couple of weeks. I am having a hard time figuring out where my macro numbers need to be. (Calories, Carbs, Protein, Fats). It seems to me that everything I read gives me a different calculation. I am a woman, five foot four, and 130 lb. My goal is to lose body fat while building muscle. I would like to shred extra body fat to create definition. I currently weight train 4 times a week with a trainer. Tues-Friday always at 5 AM. Tues=Legs, Wed=Chest, shoulders, Thur = Back, Bi, tri, Friday = legs, abs. I usually do light cardio on Mondays and Saturdays. If you could give me some sort of calculation and what days to alternate my highs and lows, i would GREATLY appreciate it.
