A cheat meal serves two purposes, one is mentally and two is metabolically. Going 2-3 days low carbs 1 day higher carbs for a prolonged period of time, you need some mental break and the spike in metabolism as well. And for some a high carb day might mean only 175-250g of carbs. A cheat meal could be 400-500g carbs come from high GI, processed foods and refined sugars....nice way to replenish glycogen and get that nice boost to the metaby.Why to do high carbs days and cheat meals? Wouldn't you do better if you would choose one or the other?
Wouldn't high carb day by itself raise leptin levels? and these days guys runs t3 even in the offseason so there is no point to do cheats, since t3 never really drops...A cheat meal serves two purposes, one is mentally and two is metabolically.

A cheat meal typically will be high carb, when would you do it , another low carb day, in essence that means that day is now a HIGH carb day, logiclally just do it with the days your allready trying to bring in more glycogen not disrupt the ketosis your trying to achieve on a low carb day, cheating then defeats the purpose of low carbs that day almost entirely.Why to do high carbs days and cheat meals?

They are also genetically in another level from most of us average genetic having folks, comparing what Shawn and Kevin do is an apples to oranges comparison...they are not the norm in this respect.Remember watching Kevin Levrone video and seeing how he cheats....brown rice with red meat - "if I cheat this is how I cheat" he said then...he weighted 250 pounds onstage. the same with Shawn Ray - he only added a meal or two during the day if he felt he was too flat/weak... now guys at 200 pounds eats 500g sugars during cheats, makes themself to believe that it's needed for metabilsim spikes blahblah but somehow never ever comes in shape....
Why do you laugh, have you seen my recent contest photos? I was in shape and I never touched any T3. yes my cheat meal, when I got one last prep was 400-500g of carbs that meal, who knows I might of even gone over. And I was not under feeding thats a silly assumption.Remember watching Kevin Levrone video and seeing how he cheats....brown rice with red meat - "if I cheat this is how I cheat" he said then...he weighted 250 pounds onstage. the same with Shawn Ray - he only added a meal or two during the day if he felt he was too flat/weak... now guys at 200 pounds eats 500g sugars during cheats, makes themself to believe that it's needed for metabilsim spikes blahblah but somehow never ever comes in shape....
Yes I've just seen. How much do you weight? Assume not over 200 pounds?Why do you laugh, have you seen my recent contest photos?

Are you Levrone or Shawn Ray? Some guys are the exception to the rule and their flattest day would be most people fullest days, lol. So take what they do with a grain of salt.
Do all the reading you want and pretend you know it all, put it into practice (like myself) then chime in.
...I was on a low dose 4-500mg a week for most of Feb, March and April with low dose DNP, then cruised for a month then bumped things up a bit, a bit of DNP in here and there but none now...
I've never ever wrote that he looks like sh!t!Tr you should edit your post . Don't say shit like that especailly when its not true about j o. The guys a beast. Not everyone can be ronnie
I eat 2000-3000 cals shit (ice cream, daughnuts, cookcies, fried chicken etc) in one sitting and I'm 7-8% bf...so what? That means nothing. I just like it this is because I'm doing it, you like to have laden carbs in one sitting this is why you're doing this. This is not making you better, this is not helping to get you shredded or gain muscle. Skip this binge meal and eat more during regular days, you think you'd be worse or better? If you need to overfeed that means you were undefeeding yourself.tr, your shit talking is getting out of hand. JonnyO won not only the heavyweights but the overall as well at a big show recently. You once again are clueless. My cheat meals are easily 400-500g carbs in one meal. That's during offseason or contest prep. And I'm 220 right now with striated glutes. No gh, no t3, no dnp.
And I'm 5'7" 220 right now with striated glutes. No gh, no t3, no dnp.
I hope you realize T3 is not the only thing that governs metaboloism so saying that T3 levels are constant because of supplementation so why refeed is ignorantWouldn't high carb day by itself raise leptin levels? and these days guys runs t3 even in the offseason so there is no point to do cheats, since t3 never really drops...
400-500g carbs in one meals?If somone needs to feed himself with such amount of carbs in one meal, he's definately underfeeding him during the diet...eat more carbs during diet and you won't need to binge yourlself with 500g per meal
