Lets put it this way...If you successfully manage your carb-up on a CKD, the feeling of fullness and tightness is un-fuckingreal....
Duchaine mentioned there being an unknown anabolic response that seems to occur to a user going from a state of severe ketosis to a supercompensated, glycogen-filled muscle. All I can say is that it is just awesome. There are many others who will agree with this as well...I believe FONZ and cockdezl (and probably a lot more) have stated there experiences as well, as they come to mind off the top of my head.
I can't really explain it more than that...experience is worth a 1000 words.

OK, what if I do my carb up/refeed day and I never leave Ketosis will I still get the benefits of the refeed???
I am taking ALA and if I take enough pre meal I will not leave Ketosis. Today is my day and after eating a BIG bowl of oatmeal for breakfast and a tuna salad sandwich on while bread for lunch I was still in Ketosis 2 hours later.

mr bmj, what about the look? will i also look awesome during my carb up's, that is what i am worried about, i want the girls to be amazed by my muscles!!!!!!!!!!
Plornive is correct in that I 'look' my best probably around Tuesday. However, Monday I will also look great (did I mention that I am damn sexy...lol j/k). This will also depend on how sensitive your body is to holding water from carbs. This is why i only carb-up from Saturday to sunday. Because I shorten my carb-up to a 12-30 hour carb-up, it really helps the prevention of creating excess water bloat...ie a 48 hour carb-up. However, If you can get away with a 48 hour carb-up, then by all means take advantage of it.
My carb meals basically look like this: Simplified version here....
Meals 1-3:
Phosphagen HP or Ultra Fuel
Whey protein and water.
Meals 4-5:
Jelly Beans and whey
Meal 6: ~midnight on Saturday
Corn Flakes and nonfat ,milk
SLEEP: Waking up is optional and is very effective (ie Bodyopus), however, I value my sleep...lol. If i wake up during the night, then i might down some nonfat milk or something...maybe a Strawberry pop tart...damn things are like cocaine.
Meal 7: ~8am Sunday
Corn flakes and nonfat milk
Meal 8: ~10:30
Oatmeal and whey
Meals 9, 10, 11: (1pm, 3:30, 6pm)
Phosphagen HP or Ultra Fuel
Whey and water
Therefore...I am not a big fan of Tuna sandwiches and I only eat oatmeal for 1 meal on the 2nd day. The body is basically on a 'clock' and is able to take in loads of high GI foods. Stuff like tuna will fuck up the absorption of other meals. However, if you're gonna have it, then the best time may be at night before bed.
Anyway, If you get down the carb-up right, then water bloat is not too much of a problem, and what extracellular water that does accumulate will be gone by Mon or Tues. I know when i did a CKD 2 years ago and got down to around 5%, that i got better caliper reading on the carb-up days because my skin was sooo tight and I couldn't get any pinch....
The addition of ALA should help the carb-up even more.
