Hi,

I also have a question for TrainerDan

I am thinking of doing a CKD diet and I have read a lot of information on it, so i am pretty well acquainted with the details.

My question is about the carb-up days and exercise.
I am thinking of starting my carb-up around 6-7pm on Friday. Is it a good idea to do 25 minutes of cardio first thing in the morning on Friday, and another 25 minutes of cardio around 4pm? And should I absolutely avoid doing any cardio on Saturday and Sunday while I am still carbing up or can I do 30 minutes of cardio?

Oh, and 1 more theoretical question... what are the benefits of the 1 week cycles? What would happen if I do low-carbing for 11 days (Monday of week 1 to Friday afternoon of week 2) and then do the 2.5 days of carbing up?

Any help regarding these questions would be much appreciated

Mary
