Higher carbs on rest days will help refill your glycogen supply, which is ideal on recovery days to replenish for the next workout. Working out tears your body own and breaks down muscle, rest days are when your body does the repairing of the torn tissue, so extra nourishment on recovery days helps even more with optimal recovery.
