1, basic principle: Under normal circumstances, the body will make rapid changes in the case of rapid reduction of carbohydrates, using fat as fuel. So after 2-5 days, the body's fat burning rate will be greatly improved. If you suddenly turn low carbon into high carbon at this time, your body will still use a large proportion of fat as fuel during exercise. The carbohydrates saved in this way can be used to increase muscle volume.
Therefore, people have designed a low-carbon and high-carbon cycle method to build amazing full muscles. In other words, our athletes create a temporarily extended window period by setting a low-carbon day, during which more nutrients will flood into muscles, so that athletes can gain muscle gain effect.
Another advantage of this method is that reducing carbohydrate intake in a short time will not affect athletes' performance, and enthusiasm will certainly not. As we all know, athletes' enthusiasm for training will be greatly reduced when they are in a state of extremely low carbon water for a long time.
2, the implementation principle: whether it is to lose weight or gain muscle, low-carbon days and high-carbon days should be carried out alternately. If it is to reduce fat, more low-carbon days need to be arranged every high-carbon day, and the whole diet structure tends to low-carbon diet. For example, we can arrange a low-carbon day on 4th-6th, and then a high-carbon day on1-3rd.
3. How to lose fat: We assume that at the beginning of the low-carbon cycle, the muscle glycogen reserve in the body is very sufficient. Therefore. At this time, the primary goal is to exhaust muscle glycogen in the body. The earlier muscle glycogen is consumed, the earlier body fat is consumed as fuel for exercise. A study shows that a high-intensity strength training (such as leg training day) is enough to exhaust muscle glycogen under load. Ideally, from the second low-carbon day, the efficiency of fat burning in the body has begun to improve, and it takes five days for the fat burning speed to reach the limit.
4. How to gain muscle: In fact, the muscle gain procedure when using this method is similar to fat loss, as long as high-carbon diet and strength training are the main contents. But if the effect is not obvious, then it is necessary to increase the high-carbon days and rest days accordingly, or adjust the strength training. Don't forget, rest is very important during muscle training!
