Good question, you are cutting and unless you are about 5 foot 3, around 165 cm...................................What are you goals, stats? What sport are you doing this for? Do you have a weight class you have to make?

On a re-feed or carb-up day, get as many as you can in, just decrease the amount of fat and protein.

Estimate would be about 300-400 g of carbs.

I'm doing the simple - Higher carb on the big workout days and low carbs on cardio and smaller workout days. Its working out very well for me so far.
