Just wondering what your favorite Epic cheat meal is and how often do you eat it?
Being that my body goes full Keto in 3 days, I have a freebirds or chipotle 3 month old baby sized burrito after Leg Day when im most anabolic. Depending on how I feel Ill have a whole medium dominos pizza topped with bacon and ground turkey , Ill have 3 chobani yogurts and 2 scoops of whey right before bed.... i eat this every 5 days.
WHAT DO YOU GUYS EAT?

This doesn't answer your question but I do have a question for you: how do you know your body is in keto? I honestly don't know so just curious.0

Ketogenic- body is using mainly fats to fuel the workload( and when youre at 60 grams of carbs a day coming oly from fibrous non starch sources, its pretty easy)
anabolic- when the body is issuing nutrients/ insulin to affected areas to repair and strengthen damaged tissue. not to be confused with protein synthesis0 -

To assure that your protein is used correctly and promoting anabolism use it when blood insulin levels are soaring high. When insulin is present in high doses the precursors that allow for gluconeogenesis to occur are drastically decreased5.
Consuming the prescribed type of carbohydrates at the appropriate time mixed with protein creates the optimal anabolic environment. Just as eating protein is not guaranteed that the amino acids will be used to repair muscle tissue; consuming carbohydrates is not a guaranteed reason to feel confident that they will replenish glycogen and proving energy either.
Athletes must consume their carbohydrates following their training in order to get the blood insulin levels up rather quickly while the metabolic pathway is supporting anabolism3.
Low blood sugar and low insulin levels cause the secretion of catabolic hormones, which is an unwanted condition for athletes. The post-training time frame calls for and if utilized properly will allow for the restoration of glycogen and blood glucose. It is at this crucial time that the process of reloading nutrients is priority in physiologic terms.
To take advantage of this precious moment the athlete should have a dose of simple carbohydrates. These carbohydrates should come in the form of a liquid for the ease of digestion. The athlete should consume about 0.5 grams of carbohydrates for every kilogram of their body weight immediately following their training session60 -

Not everyone has the same goal as you. Some of us are here to lose weight, not "get swole". Don't act so shocked that not everyone understands what you're talking about0 -

I guess it doesnt matter entirely
what im getting at is the same way your body is clamoring for water after playing 3 on 3 full court basketball for 2 hours straight..******IT is MY beleif that your body is screaming for quick nutrition to respond to that nasty leg workout*** that is all.
It is also my preference to eat pizza and burritos to supplement that caloric expendature0 -
I refeed once a week. Normal deficit is 20% below TDEE and refeeds are 10% above, almost all carbs for refeed. Rest of the week is carb cycling.
Currently 12 weeks out from my second bodybuilding competition.0 -
carbs are the enemy when you are a meso-endo on a cut.. Im currently 224 @ 14% bf I find this to be to light as i was 236 11% last year this time .. When im not cutting 360 grams carbs is ideal for now until mid august, 60 grams 4days 180 for 2 and re- feed on sundays..(Its what works for me).I am convinced. This is a weight loss site. Not a fitness site at all, the lack of basic building blocks is astounding.

Eating an 1k calories over your maintenance on a consistent basis level isn't going to deliver any more muscle gain than eating 300 calories over your maintenance on a consistent basis. Oh wait, just extra stored fat.0 -
