Edit: There’s another longish post of mine down there, please be patient and give me some feedback, it’s very important :>
So this is my carb cycling diet. I have a couple of problems with it. First, it seems like a ton of food, according to that formula I burn 3k cals a day, but what if I don’t? I’ve never eaten so much…
I will add the occasional fruit here and there, and it says cucumbers but it would be other veggies… I thought that maybe 170g fat is too much, even though I did it with the forumla. I don’t want to make any mistakes and end up with a higher BF%.
My stats:
20yo
180lbs
6’
18-19% BF
I work by the TBT program with very little aerobics (I intend to start doing HIIT 3 times a week)
I would very much like to get as much criticism as I can, so don’t be shy
Thanks alot!
