I know I'm meant to try and get carb night on nights when I'm training, but I want a stable training program through the week, mon-fri, but I'm meant to give at least 4 days between each carb night.So what I'm saying is if I resistance train on monday and have a carb night. Then on Friday when I resistance train again is it better to have another carb night then or wait till saturday or sunday.Or would it just be better to have one big Carb night each week on the same day?I know CBL is supposed to be better for muscle gain but until I get more confident with lifting heavy weights I wanted to use Carb nite.
Why wouldn't you just do it as written at first and stick to every 7 days?
+1Have it on the same day each week.
I'm just doing a heavier training load then I think was meant for Carb nite so I wanted to move them a bit closer or maybe do 2 a week.Hmm... I think I might just do as you say and start with 1 carb nite every seven days and track my results. If I'm not getting enough energy or the results I want I'll up it or move to full CBL.Thanks for the advice, I'll let you know how I go.

I am new at this as well, however, I do know in the Carb Nite book he places the importance of 5 days between carb nites at the minimum and doing only one carb nite a week. If you are needing more a week, maybe consider CBL.

Four days, not five.
Four days inbetween each Carb nite. Making the actual eating of carbs on day 5, 6, or 7. If you can keep your fats up throughout the week, you should be able to train on the days you choose. It took 10 days for the Reoreintation. Why ruin that "work" by trying squeeze thing in?
It's 4 days between, making the carbnite every fifth day if you follow that schedule. What are your stats? Whats your idea of lifting heavy? I'm not trying to beat you down but you sound on the fence. If you want to do “heavy sets” all the time, why not go to CBL SA. I do Carbnite with shockwave, I'm 236lbs. and have carbnite every 5-6 days depending on schedule. I have lost 22lbs. in the process. Everything you listed is all relative to factors your uncertain of. I would seriously figure out what your goals are and go from there.
why not go to CBL SA.
+1I am about to finish another round of CNS and switch back to CBL SA. If you are trying to get or stay strong and train, this is the preferred plan. Plus if you are trying to lower your BF%, this will get you there via two routes not just one, building more muscle and actually eliminating fat.
