Default Seeking Advice...

Hi,

I'm new to the low carb way of eating--on my 5th day of Atkins Induction.

I run 5 times per week with each run totaling about 30 minutes. I've read on here where its recommended for people to carb load when working with weights; however, I don't work with weights, yet.

Now, my question is, since I do run regulary, but I don't work with weights, would it be advisable to carb load?

Thanks.

IMHO I would say NO carb load before cardio. Early morning cardio on an empty stomach is recommended and 30 mins is a good amount of time
