Really do appreciate your help. Retired army. I relalize my macros are really wrong. I have been eating high protein very low carbs and hit a serious wall where I am feeling really drained. Not recovering from workouts. I am hoping this carb trick will get me back on track. Thanks again.
Started the carb cycling the same time I started the Fit after 50 program. Only 1 week in and lost 3 lbs. This definitely works. I have also been doing the 16 hour fast daily.
That is awesome Timothy! So happy to hear that, and can't wait to hear more about your progress 😁😄 Keep up the good work, and the results will keep coming your way!
Great info Mark...thanks! I'm 60 & workout 7 days a week with 4 weight days & 3 pure cardio days (spin biking & jogging). I'm in great shape but being short & stocky (former bodybuilder in my younger days) I'm carrying too much body fat that I just can't seem to lose. I eat a healthy 100% whole foods diet but carbs stay consistent & on the high side throughout the workout week. This makes sense to go low or medium carbs on weight days & higher carbs on cardio days. So, armed with this knowledge now, I'm going to give it a try.
Very well said sir about this topic and keep it up and keep training hard and be strong always sir and stay healthy and be positive and happy always sir
Along the same lines will it be more effective in the long run to cycle protein (no to low to normal to high, repeat) vs constant ratio especially past 50 ?
Hi, 51 year old man and I have been doing a couple of 24 hour fasts, a 48 hour one and a 72 hour one over the last 4 weeks. I have been watching what I eat on the other days in the week a little bit. My schedule would afford me to do a 48 hour fast a week and I wanted to know what you think of that as a weight loss technique?
Why track anything then. I think this is the way most of our lives go naturally. This advice tells me just continue to avoid carbs, focus on protein and do the same workouts you was doing in your 40s, and whatever do, stop telling yourself you're 50 and live. Eat. Exercise. Work. In no particular order.
I have a more unique problem that maybe some of you guys might be experiencing. Because of Agent Orange in Vietnam I now have prostate cancer. To help battle this cancer I am on a chemical called Eligard. I get it injected every 6 months. Eligard is designed to eat the male hormones which starves my prostate cancer. My testosterone level is very low. Any feedback would be great. I'm looking for tips to help boost my testosterone through diet. Thanks
It's confusing, what are considered workouts, Can be strength or cardio, what if i do 3 days strength & 3 days cardio and walk everyday, so that means I'm moderate carb and never will be able to cycle? Doesn't make sense
Im a fruitatarion but mix sub sandwiches and stay active. I stayed dedicated to the hardcore lifting sessions from age 27 to almost 40 I am now 49 and still in top peak shape. Best life choice of my life.😎
well am I only the person that missed how many days we do this, all I heard one day low, one day moderate, and One day High. what about the other four days....
Too much work guys. Don't intermittent fast, eat 3 or 4 times a day. Protein, starchy carbs and veggies. Don't pig out, cut out the junk food and exercise every day, even if 3 days a week it's just walking. Be consistent.
If you are and quite possibly you will be, on TRT, there is no way you can boost your test levels. So let me ask you seriously and let's hope you are honest. My question is regarding one very important ingredient...…Testosterone! Are you on TRT?

Great info Mark,....Question, what do you use in your coffee for sweetening..if anything? I use brown sugar and will cut out soon
Hi Mark. What do you think about mixing this diet with the 16/8 IF diet?
What if your working out 5 days a week rest days weekends
Will this get rid of the FUPA as well?
Interesting!

So with this plan we don't worry about calories, only carbs ?
I'm 59yrs 215lbs and diabetic. There's no way I could do 400 plus carbs in a day. Any ideas?
It's confusing, what are considered workouts, Can be strength or cardio, what if i do 3 days strength & 3 days cardio and walk everyday, so that means I'm moderate carb and never will be able to cycle? Doesn't make sense
My muscles and joints kill me after doing high carb days. Does anyone else have this problem?

Mix it up...try salad or grilled veggies few 3-4 days, a couple normal days with some carbs, and then a high carb "cheat day".
Why do people crave sweets ?
well am I only the person that missed how many days we do this, all I heard one day low, one day moderate, and One day High.
what about the other four days....

Better advice than this video. Calorie deficit is better than cutting carbs and doing a 16 hour fast. Which is very dangerous.
