So, I've reached the point where I've decided that I want to stop losing any more weight. I don't want to bulk, but rather maintain or VERY slowly add pure lean mass. My conundrum at this point is that I need to add more calories, but am debating what the best way to do this is...
Current diet - Sun-Fri, 1600kcals, PSMF style; Saturday 2800kcals, refeed (300+g carbs)
*you can say whatever you want about the way this looks, but the results are impossible to argue with. I'm currently in single digit bf and 25lb heavier than last year and hitting PR's in major lifts. It works for me so you can leave that out of the equation.
The debate:
1) Add in a second refeed day on Wednesdays - same cals/carbs as the saturday version
2) Add in a cheat meal on Wednesdays - no planned carb or specific macro setup. just a meal of whatever that will supply an excess amount of calories
3) Add a few calories to all days, keeping the style the same (6PSMF+1refeed)
Thoughts? Other options?
