Caloric Intake on off days....

LB_SpecV · 04-10-2006, 12:26 PM

On days where I dont Run and Lift, and just lift, should I keep my caloric intake the same, even though I havent burned the same amount of calories as I usually would?

Depends on what you are wanting to achieve (bulking, cutting, maintaining) and the type of diet you are following (carb cycling, zig/zag, CKD, keto, zone

) etc etc

Personally, unless I am following a specific diet pattern (eg: re-feeding or the like), my rest day intake will be lower than my training days.

im maintaining, and my diet is very strict as far as carb and fat intake wise.

Why isn't it higher on training days so you have more energy?
