non fast day calories
Hi Guys, I keep seeing the numbers for feast / feed / non fast days as being TDEE. However this seems quite high to me? On a non 5:2 related forum a few have said they are eating 1200cals on feed days, which i thought seemed a bit low?

Moderate Versus Strenuous
Hi guys, Ok so i understand the hours spent exercising. 3-5 or 5-7. However what seems to be throwing me right out is how do we define what is moderate and what is strenuous??
