I'm trying to shed the fat I've picked up during the school year over the course of the next month or so. In the past, I restricted my calories and did a lot of circuit training while making sure my body was getting enough protein, but my diet was still relatively carb heavy.
I'm just wondering, what's the reason behind cutting carbs for fat loss? From what I understand, everything just turns into calories at the end of the day and if you're in a caloric deficit, you should see results regardless of whether those calories come from carbs, proteins, or fats.
Is it just bro-science behind cutting carbs or is there a good reason behind it? All I eat are complex carbs, if it makes any difference.
