Shelby, I recently purchased your mcro guidebook and plugged my numbers in and my high days came out to 400g of carbs/ 240g of protein. My low days came out to 100g of carbs/ 300g of protein. Im in college and only get three meals a day. I am struggling to put these kinds of numbers away across three meals. Is there anything you could suggest MRP or shake-wise that might help me out? I'm 5'8 195 and in the first week of your carb cycling template.
Dividing those numbers by 6 meals a day you get about 65g carbs and 40g protein on the high days, and on the low days about 30g carbs in the first 3 meals of the day and 50g protein in each of 6 meals.
If you get 3 meals from the cafeteria at school, you'll have to get the other 3 on your own.
So 3 meals on your own on the high carb days, with 65g carbs and 40g protein each, and 3 meals on your own on the low days, about 50g protein each, with some healthy fats added.
A good protein powder like Biotest Low Carb Metabolic Drive would be fine for some of these meals: Biotest Low Carb Metabolic Drive
For the carbs and healthy fats, I'd suggest oatmeal, brown rice, Ezekiel bread, sweet potatoes, walnuts, almonds, extra virgin olive oil, and fish oil capsules.
