You may find 40g a day a bit low on those lift days. Cardio days and 40g will work well. After about the 2nd week or so on BFL you may start to feel yourself fatiguing pretty fast while going through your routines.
If this is the case, up your carbs around your lift workouts. Best solution is to eat something "carby" 45 mins before you lift and afterwards eat something carby to help muscle recovery.
What is "carby"? Apple with peanut butter, protein/energy bar, steel cut oatmeal. Pick a low GI type of carb.
Good luck to you!
