Nobody said anything about carb up? Actually, I believe I was the one that said something about it. You really don't know what you're talking about.

You certified at what? Changing tires? You saying you have a degree in nutrition or a certification in physical training? If you bring the word "certified" into it... I doubt you are very qualified to talk about anything related to biochem and molecular biology.

Wonderful, someone who manages to regurgitate "bro science" articles is going to tell me I don't know what I'm talking about.

Not sure where you get the idea that someone is going to go low carb and they have to "carb up" after two weeks to deplete glycogen levels. That doesn't make sense. Within a few days of restricting carbs, you will be in a state of ketosis and glycogen levels are down and glucogen levels are up. Carbing up causes the opposite to be happen - something you seem to not understand. There is no point to "carbing up" unless you are on a cyclical ketogenic diet and trying to lift at the same time and you need to increase sugar stores/hydration levels - which is not what this conversation is about.

The part that I bolded, I had to read again because either you are "slow", or you're committing a strawman. The carb up is BECAUSE of depleted glycogen levels, not TO deplete them. At least TRY to sound intelligent.

That's ok, it's too easy spotting an idiot, especially an idiot that's challenging your superior expertise.
