Carb cycling alternates high- and low-carb days to match training intensity. On heavy lifting or endurance days, higher carbs replenish glycogen and sustain energy, while rest days shift toward lower carbs and higher protein. Early evidence suggests subjective energy and recovery scores may improve with this approach, particularly for recreational athletes. The key is balance, not extremes—think whole grains, fruits, and starchy vegetables on training days, and fibrous carbs with lean protein on rest days. Carb cycling isn’t magic, but it aligns nutrition with activity, offering a practical tool for better training outcomes.
