Cheating

Who is doing a cheat meal per week? More than one cheat meal? A cheat day? Please provide feedback on when you cheat and why? Is it pre-planned or did it happen due to poor planning? Cheat meals can be helpful if planned and timed specifically. For the best results, time your cheat meal following a workout. Preferably a hard weight training session followed by interval training or as some say a HIIT session. Another appropriate time for a cheat meal is after several days of diligent dieting (meaning 100% compliance). A cheat meal taken after this time will serve as a metabolic boost and may just be what your body needs to lose those extra few pounds. Remember cheating (on your diet!) is only good and beneficial if it is timed correctly and used sparingly.
