Ok so I looked around couldn't find a thread specifically focused on this, if i missed it sorry and please point me to it.
I debated with putting this in this forum vs billing couldn't figure out which was the place and ended up here.
So I have a epi/1/4 cycle coming up soon that I want to be a recomp cycle.
I'm currently at 242lbs, 5'10"and ~22%bf. Maintenance calories are 2000, ya I know it's low, but anything more and I pack on weight. I'm hardcore keto, cause just thinking about carbs packs on pounds, not to mention I just feel better overall.
What i want to know is what are people's thoughts on calories for a recomp? Should it be maintenance, lower or higher? I've seen some thoughts here and there but no straight discussion about it.
Thoughts?
