Reply With QuoteFrom my limited understanding as a cat 1 on a 2 week RFL we get no refeed or cheat meal.
Hopefully Built will chime in, as I am starting one next month, with the exact same BF% and exact same question, only my RFL will be 3 weeks.

Starting Rapid Fat Loss as Cat1 w/ refeed concerns.
Started my PSMF on 6/3 and before going further. (My activities 2 full body, 3 fasted LISS cardio) CAT 1, male, 15% ish
Lyle recommend 11-12 days of RFL w/ follow-up of 2-3 days of refeed.
I am currently conflicted with 5 hr refeed, is this just for Cat 2 individuals?
Can I adjust my Cat 1 RFL to 6 day of RFL w/ 5 hr refeed? If there no benefit here, I won't go through with it.
Any example set-up I can follow by? Thank you.

What do these abbreviations mean? In my opinion a refeed meal is a must for any fat loss program. Your hormones are being supressed with the calorie restriction and it's counter productive to ignore that and let it go by not refeeding.

RFL = Rapid Fat Loss
Its a protocol by Lyle McDonald that is a short term crash diet based on the PSMF (Protein Sparing Modifed Fast).
The diet is separated by different categories of dieters, based on their bodyfat percentages and activity levels.
As a Cat1 dieter, you arent advised to take the diet any longer than 2-3 weeks, and I do not THINK you get a refeed. Not sure though, I will pull it back out.First cycle log DOOM!http://www.ironmagazineforums.com/an...cycle-log.html

vietgoboi, as a category I dieter, you go straight through to the end, then do your refeed all at once for two days before taking a full diet break.
WeightGainNet, go to lyle's site bodyrecomposition and check out "rapid fat loss".Wondering where to start? Confused? "Homework 1" will get you started.
Think you're ready for the "next step"? Take this test.
