Offseason Diet


Im 4 weeks out from my offseason so now im going to begin the transition phase to my offseason bulk. Im beginning to carb cycle and add in HISS (High Intensity Steady State) and HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) cardio days to keep fat at bay during the transition. Week 1 im going to be carb cycling with the same amount of calories that I currently have been consuming. Here is the split that im going to be following.

Carb Cycling

Monday – Low carbs – Arms
Tuesday – No carbs – Off
Wednesday – High carbs – Legs
Thursday – No carbs – Off
Friday – Low Carbs – Chest and Tri's
Saturday – High Carbs – Back and Bi’s
Sunday – Low carbs – Shoulders
