It means you're going to have to see how things go. Many people cannot exercise intensely at <20g a day of carbs. If you're talking weight lifting then forget it - it's not a pretty sight 
You also shouldn't be on Induction Level carbs 'pretty much till you get to goal' - you need to work some carbs back into your diet before then or it will be a nasty shock to your system. Induction is but one phase of the Atkins program - pull out your copy of the book and check out OWL and Maintenance. The goal here is not just to get to goal - it's to be able to maintain it as well.
