Hi
I’m new to CBL though I did many low carb diets
My question is what is the right resistance training and rep range with CBL t o get best results?
thxLow reps (3-5, perhaps up to 8 reps) with heavy weight would be my suggestion. “Go big or go home,” perhaps re-read chapter 49 in the CBL1.0 book.
If at the end of your workout you’re asking yourself, “Did I do enough?” Probably not. If you feel you earned yourself a backload, “KILLED it in the gym today!!” Then you most certainly did.
So gauge your body yourself. š
thx for your reply
I didn’t really buy the book yet, I pretty much know about it from bodybuilding sites and forums and wanted to give it a try but wanted to make sure what wights and reps work best with it
I would highly suggest purchasing the book before attempting CBL, it’s too much like a box of legos for you to try and piece together from things you read online about it.
Sure, maybe it’ll work for you, but maybe it won’t because you didn’t read the book and then you just assume CBL doesn’t work for you (when you never really gave it an honest shot.)
The CBL book has a 60 day money backed guarantee with an easy return process, so there is really no reason for you to not purchase it. If you don’t feel it was worth your money, or after trying it out (the right way with all the information at your fingertips) you can get your money back without hassle.
Just my 2c, whatever you decide, good luck.

thxYou need to define what are the best results for you. You know where you are at but need to decide what you want to do: gain muscle, lose fat, get stronger…
Pick a goal then adjust diet and training to that goal.
CBL, without getting into specifics since you don’t own the book is pretty flexible in how you modulate protein and backloads to hit your target.
There’s probably hundreds of training programs out there, some hypertrophy specific, other pure strength gaining and all the variables in between.
So there, pick a goal first, adjust everything else to that and of course buy the book and read it.The eyes can't see what the mind doesn't understand.
Appreciate your replies and I’ll consider purchasing the book ASAP, as for my goal right now I’m on ketogenic diet and trying carb nite which look much easier than CBL but I read once I hit under 15 % bf I should consider CBL which is more complicated< I may give it a try
another question please does the book cover carb nite or they’re different books?
They’re 2 different books. Carbnite is really old. If anything I’d buy CBL and if you wanted to do Carbnite, apply what you learned and only eat carbs every 7-10 days.
He’s coming out with the new version of both ‘soon’. Been in the works for a while but I think he’s actually getting closer to releasing them. The problem is if you buy now, you’ll have to rebuy if you want the new one. I think anyway, unless he has a claus where if you buy now, you’re eligible for a free upgrade to the new version.
I should consider CBL which is more complicated
CBL is still very simple. But, people seam to overcomplicate everything. LOL.
I’d just get CBL book. CN is really just a stripped down version geared towards more sedentary people.
