Is carb cycling still a thing? I followed LeanGains back in 2008-2011ish, but the indusry has come a long way since then.
I was keto since April and lost about 20lbs, but my lifts and cardio suffer from the lack of carbs. Also, I feel flat due to depleted glycogen. I feel great on keto, but it's limiting my exercise and due to my job, I travel a lot and have a lot of client dinners.
I'm thinking of doing carb cycling to break my plateau and allow me to focus more on my lifts. I think a 3 day split is the norm? Push/pull/legs? High carb on lifting days, low carb on rest/cardio days?
