Article: Lose Fat With Cheat Meals

In simple words? It jump starts the metabolism .. Last Christmas I ate 2 homemade pies,( made with Splenda, lol) and enough turkey, potatoes, gravy etc. to feed a family of 4, and I still lost weight the next day... This system^^^ really works!!! But yes, planning ur cheat is important! I think about what I'm going to have for my next cheat all week long..( change my mind often, lol).. That's what gets me through the week. The mental preparation..
 
Think about if your eating a deficit in daily calories for weeks, your body will begin to adjust to the deficit and learn how to become more efficient thus reducing the weightless effects of the deficit. Added cheat meals makes your metabolism think your are no longer in starvation mode and there is a surplus if food comming so it drops some of it defenses. Then bam you hit it with deficit again and your back to losing fat. Cheat meals ate a must... Though I normally have cheat days and drink most of my calories.
 
Alcohol included.its part of a diet.same principles apply.you can't drink every day and expect to lose weight and get ripped.once a week or couple of weeks 3 to 6pints should be ok

Thanks for that explanation.
 
Why does he say to cheat on non-training days? I prefer to cheat on heavy training day as I feel I get away with it more
 
I'd say a cheat MEAL if fine on a training day, but a chea DAY is better on an off day bc you don't want to negatively impact your performance with greasy and/or allergenic ingredients. I would never have a cheat meal before a workout.

I also have to state that alcohol "cheating" has a bigger (worse) impact than the calories. Alcohol is pretty devastating to physique and performance goals.

One would wonder why u'd let it slow down in the first place. Oh wait..bad internet information. Fad diets. Lack of knowledge in human metabolism..
