Refeed question

joos23 · Jul 10, 2018

How often you do you guys refeed? 2 times a week under 10% or 8%? I've read both. I appreciate the help!

It totally depends on your diet and how your body responds , once I get 5-6 week out I do them once a week to see how my body responds to the carbs and how long it take to fill up.

Most of the guys I see in the gym are refeeding much to often as they are really not loosing much even though they may be sweating up a storm and looking very drained at the moment even though their work load appears to be pretty light.

try it for yourself first. on a Saturday; eat your regular carb meals; and either add more carbs at that day or go out and have anything you want; carbs preferably then see how your body reacts. Are you losing weight as usual; is it not working and it’s just slowing down your fat loss?
Weigh next Saturday and see what the scale and the mirror says.

I “cheat” every Saturday. I eat 3 out of 5 meals then go out and have whatever I want from 6 to 12 and it’s been working well. everyone’s metabolism is different

This past Saturday I had a clean refeed. Sunday I was down 1.6lbs. So I'm wondering if I need two a week. I thought the leaner you are, more frequently you should have them

I always gain when I cheat. Your blessed man!
