I have the book. what page? I mustve missed it
It's one of the most difficult subjects to understand. If I could give a few quick pointers they would be:1. The total amount of carbs in the delta chart is the TOTAL amount that your body can hold, not the amount you need per backload.2. Backloading provides glycogen for muscular contraction, not so much for muscular repair. That is mainly the job of insulin and protein.3. Look at the workout that you are doing to assess your backload. Biceps are smaller than quads so backload accordingly.4. Backload to complement your training, not your cravings.5. Start small and work up, don't start big or plan on redoing the prep phase after your fucked it up.RB

The chapter titled "Off-Days" is a good place to start. Where it says "I can describe how to Carb Back-Load on off-days in the simplest terms possible: don't." Then he provides some exceptions to that rule.
