calorie staggering

jrlitt76

Can someone explain to me how this works? is it similar to setting my calorie goal to 1200 one day and 1400 the next? if I staggered my calories 1000 one day and 1400 the next will that still work since my body doesnt have enough time to go into 'starvation' mode?

This is what I use. You would never enter starvation mode in a day.

Bodybuilders use 3 days up 2 days down

And yes, it works. You can also do it with carbs.
