Hi guys,
Ive been doing carb nite for a while with good results,but dont think I’m ready for backloading just yet.
I currently train 4 times a week with weights at around 6pm, but stay below 30g carbs even on training days. I only have the one massive carb night each week.
I’m looking at introducing carb shock with the idea of working up to proper backloading in a few weeks/months if the carb shock seems to work for me.
So as it stands, Would you recommend taking it after each workout? And also, if training doesnt fall on my “carb nite,” would you just do a normal carb nite or take carbshock too?
Any advice would be appreciated, Garreth
Garreth, I think you would benefit with Carbshock 1-hr after any hard training (i.e., weight or HIIT) session, regardless of whether the hard training session falls on your carb nite, and this is Kiefer’s recommendation as well.
Where’s your bf% at? If you’re around 15%, I think you could just start doing CBL now; you’ll get stronger and build muscle more quickly, while continuing to drop your bf%. If you’re over 20%, then you’re probably right that CNS is still the right program as fat loss should be your primary goal, if that’s the case.
