Pushing 2.5 weeks into a cutting phase and was planning a refeed on Saturday of this week.
Does everyone who does them find them very beneficial to make fat loss increase slightly ? Everyone online seems to highly recommend them due to leptin levels dropping etc and also... For psychological reasons.
I have read loads into refeeds and the majority highly recommend them if your diet has lower carbs when cutting. (Mine is)
My plan was to bump carbs to
500grams
160 Grams of Protein and drop fats to around 50 Grams
Calories = 3090
My maintenance hovers around the 2700-2800 marker so its a slight surplus.
With me seeing such good progress even in a small time frame i dont want to upset it too much. My diet has been bang on in this cut and not drifted at all and hunger remains very manageable. My food choices will sway well towards more cleaner carbs and maybe 10-20% more enjoyable foods.
I know some people think a refeed is an all out binge fest and thats when you lose connection with your body targets and relationship with foods also.. In my opinion anyway.
Whats everyone's opinions?
Thanks
