Frequently Asked Questions
What is carb cycling?
Carb cycling alternates higher and lower carbohydrate days while keeping protein roughly constant. High-carb days are usually timed to your hardest workouts and lower-carb days to rest days.
How does the calculator set my macros?
It holds protein constant from grams per pound of body weight, sets fat as a chosen percentage of calories, and fills the rest with carbohydrate, which rises on high days and falls on no-carb days based on a multiple of your TDEE.
Will carb cycling help me lose fat?
Over a week, total calories still determine fat loss. Carb cycling mainly helps training energy and diet adherence rather than offering a metabolic shortcut.
Is it safe for everyone?
Not necessarily. People with diabetes or other medical conditions should get tailored guidance. This calculator is general information only and is not medical advice; consult your doctor or a registered dietitian.
