First dat of trying out carb cycling

[supaman61]

Meal 1 75g porridge oats with skimmed milk
1 slice 30g dutch edam, 25g pastrami

Meal 2 2 lean ham & half fat chesse sandwiches on wholemeal bread

Meal 3 2 cans of tuna with small amount of olive oil

Meal 4 1 can of tuna with half a red onion and lettuce and small amount of olive oil

Meal 5 250g lean minced beef with 50g of carrots, 50g tomato puree, half red onion, 1 wholemeal bagel with 1 slice 30g dutch edam

4 litres of water

2 fish oil caps, 1 multi vit and 1 high strength vit c & zinc tab.

Im trying to have 5-6 evenly spaced meals of which 3 will contain carbs (breakfast, 10am and post workout) and 2 meals of just protein with a small amount of fat.

Going from 10am to 7pm without carbs I thought I would experiance possible dizzyness but that was not the case, I felt fine.

2 out of 4 workout days im going 2 aim for 250g of carbs, the other 2 days at 200g and 3 non workout days at 150g.

Protein will stay constant at around 200g per day.

What are your macros?
10 - 7 seems way to far spaced for carb consumption.
Why not add carbs to meals 1 and 2 plus post workout, that way your shortening the gap and probs gonna make the diet easier to maintain.
