What is considered low carb and high carb?
What is considered low carb and high carb? In calories or grams. i want to try and do some low carb days but I don't know how low I should go. I was thinking about 300-400 calories per day for low carb and over 1000 calories for high carb. Is this ballpark?

you mean 400 cals for carbs alone? that would be 100 g of carbs.
1000 cals of carbs is 250 g of carbs.
low days for most women are under 75g, high, well can be anything really!
alli carb cycles, maybe shell chime in here.APS HI TECH PHARMACEUTICALS ATHLETE

It depends on how aggressive you are getting with your carb-cycling. If you are prepping for a show- your low days get get REALLY low (zero - not counting greens) - depending.

I prefer carb cycle as well... I have tried many other methods but prefer to cycle, my body responds to this best.
FOR ME:
Low days for most women would be considered - 30-70 g
And high days would be up to 250 g
But this is very dependent on metabolism, some mens high carb days can go very high.

Under 80 is low IMO
