Cycle-Aware Macro Cycling
Cycle-aware macro cycling slightly raises carbs or calories luteally while keeping protein steady—small shifts guided by logs, not fad rules.
Cycle-aware macro cycling nudges carbohydrate and calorie intake up in the luteal phase and holds steadier targets follicular when hunger is lower—small shifts, not chaotic weekly cuts. Protein stays anchored; fats fill remaining calories.
Works best when scale, performance, and mood are tracked together three cycles.
Common questions
-
How large should macro shifts be across phases?
Often one to two hundred calories or modest carb increases luteally is enough. Larger swings should follow weight, performance, and symptom trends—not guesses.
