Refeeding: when to use which type?
I recently figured out I don't really know which type of refeeding has to be used when.
For the sake of this thread, let's use these terms to describe the two types:
Type 1: After a period of low/no-carb dieting, you stuff yourself with fast digesting carbs all day or most of the day. You need to overflow your body's glycogen stores to replenish Leptin.
Type 2: After a period of dieting, you go back to maintenance or bulking caloric intake for X days.
Which do you prefer and when?
Addendum: why does Lyle suggest a type 2 after a PSMF?

From a technical standpoint, number one is a re-feed....although I would research the duration and the type/quality of carbs consumed, which vary depending on who's ideology you're following.
Assuming that my comment will be shot down in five, four, three, two.......
Refeeds and Leptin

I prefer Type 1 after a period of low carb dieting. For no carb dieting (such as PSMF) then Type 2 is required.

Type 2 is basically a diet break to give your body a chance to recover. Too much dieting can actually decrease your metabolism hence the need for either a refeed or a diet break.
