Carb Cycling 101

So we are back with another blog topic on nutrition and how to maximize your physique and energy levels!!! Last post we went over insulin sensitivity and how it directly affects body composition!! We will now dive into the number 1 most effective way to “diet” gosh I hate that term. But yes, the most effective way to eat to maximize insulin sensitivity and your subsequent results in the gym!!!!

Carb cycling, that’s the real secret nutrition hack that will start getting progress rolling in the right direction!!! Essentially we are looking to mix up the amounts of carbs we take in on a regular basis!! Sometimes daily, sometimes every few days!! Again this is super individual to YOU!!!! Now, here are the 2 keys!! On days of higher carbs, fat needs to be low! Again that carb day is needed to reset the metabolism!! The lower carb days we need to increase the fat in order to keep the body burning FAT!!! Go figure eat fat to keep the burning burning fat!!!

Now as the body gets leaner and leaner we must continue to up carbs to keep the body’s insulin resistance low!!!! Aka your body remain sensitive to insulin and can use carbs to increase one’s metabolism (the most important aspect to losing fat). Ever notice the ones who eat the most are generally the leanest??? And those eating 1 time a day are continue to get fatter??? Yea that’s why!! Metabolism and insulin sensitivity!! Over and out!!

INTENSITY OVER EVERYTHING
