I've seen references to this, as in people doing it, but am not sure what it entails...

Can someone give me the low down and why people do it?

Thanks :)

    I'm not sure the correct way to do it for you but when I did it I looked online and entered my stats 22years old, 119lbs 5'2.
    Exp. M-900 T-1400 W-1000 TH-1500 F-850 S-1600 SU-1200
    Basically u go low (below bmr) and go high(above tdee) and bounce around in between. Again I'm not a pro and I only did it 2 weeks so I didn't see much change

    The low days are hard

    Do you eat back your exercise calories then? I go tothe gym or run at least 4 days a week. I wouldn't be able to do that on really low calories without fainting!

    I did. I don't think it matters the order but just plan ur high days on workout days. And like I said those were the numbers the online device gave me so u might wanna do so reaserch what numbers would be good for u. Good luck

    I naturally cal cycle just according to the day I'm always diff between 1000-1500 net
