I plan to begin a carb up saturday night but was just wondering how much time should I give between my last fatty meal and my first high carb meal. So just as an example if I ate at six a high carb meal, my first of the carb up, how many hours should I leave between that first meal and the meal prior to that one? As I would normally start a carb up on a morning I've already had my 6-9 hours of sleep so I dont concern myself then.

I know mark states somewhere that he starts his carb up on friday night through to saturday night but I dont think he mentions anything to answer my question.

Cheers

As I would normally start a carb up on a morning I've already had my 6-9 hours of sleep so I dont concern myself then.

Basically I would do it like this, but if I had to do start the carb up in the middle of the day I would normally eat my next meal whether it is high fat or high carb 2-3 hours after my last meal, as usual.

I agree with undertaker... no change in time... 3 hours between meals, 6 meals a day. The body is still burning fat for energy at the point when you consume the carbs.

Ok thanks for the input, I'll leave as much time between the meals as I do now.
