Ok so check this out follow if you can …. Lets sat you train m-f no cardio (backload everyday you train) books says hypothetical max 200g 1) you don't hit the 200 g carbs you back load could be 90g-125g carbs everyday you've trained 5 days2) you exceeded the 200g carbs three days out of the five days you backloaded or all five days Question 1) any negative with this route? Is there a Reason why target may say 200g carbs for said weight, Is that what is expected (not concrete) to replace glycogen ? Question 2) if you replace glycogen significantly could you be damaging yourself to start storing fat again? Talking only carbs here.... Just curious wanted to see what you thought about this?

that's very dependent on type of strength training, how much glycogen you actually store and how efficient your body is at utilizing glycogen.

Lets sat you train m-f no cardio (backload everyday you train) books says hypothetical max 200g Where does it say this at? 1) you don't hit the 200 g carbs you back load could be 90g-125g carbs everyday you've trained 5 days2) you exceeded the 200g carbs three days out of the five days you backloaded or all five days Question 1) any negative with this route?

Question 2) if you replace glycogen significantly could you be damaging yourself to start storing fat again? If you take in more carbs than you have room to store as glycogen, then the "spill-over" is more likely to be stored as fat, yes. On SA you want to try and top off glycogen and avoid spill-over, on DB kinda the same idea, but if you spill over a little it's much more acceptable(since we aren't looking for fat LOSS as much on DB)Talking only carbs here....

Also, you have to remember, our body uses glycogen even when we aren't working out. So even if you could quantify how much glycogen you used during your workout, it wouldn't account for how much you used walking up the stairs earlier, breathing, digesting food, etc etc. That's why you can be depleted on CNS after a few days, even without working out. 🙂
Also you might want to note that the books reference to carbs is the MAX your body can hold. This being said you should base this off LBM because the muscle tissue is what we want to hold the carbs we are putting in. Additionally you will not completely deplete in one day if you completely fill up on a BL. So depending on goals your not going to want to eat 400g carbs every day if your estimated carb max is 400g
