Refeed Day Calories

Nevergiveup_mfp2020

Hello Everyone

I was looking up some info regarding refeed days. Most sites were saying to have one once every 2 weeks. Some sites were saying to eat like 300-600 cals over maintenance while others are saying to just eat at maintenance. Which way should you do a refeed day? Calories at maintenance or over?

Thanks x

I don't think one day is really a "refeed."

This is a very long thread, but you can find your answers in the first few posts:

I do at least maintenance (or more) for two days with higher carbs every week.. this has given me the best results. I was very lean and close to goal though so there are several factors at play.

That thread above is very helpful and worth reading !
