Thanks dude

As J says you can do this and it makes sense to a point as those sessions are likely more demanding. However you may need to focus more on other body parts as they are lagging so then you would do well to put more food on those days.

There is no 1 set rule to this as we know

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Understood

“ must “ , no

Can you do that , sure

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks for clarify the question

Hello mate; must do no.
It depends honestly.
Some peeps are high carbs on all workout days no matter the muscle they are training.
Some people got super high day on a weak muscle training day to catch up the gap.
It’s not mandatory that this is happening as you said, it’s all person dependant.
Lower calories with more fats on rest days is smg I do, but some people keep the same diet everyday and just remove their post-workout on a rest day.
There are so many approaches; as said before; it’s person dependant.
There is nothing wrong in what you do now.
You could also get high cals on all training days, I would say same.

Thanks so much

You don’t have to. Many eat less on rest days. Some depending on then amount of food 600-1000 less on non training day. Myself barely any different on rest day maybe 40g carbs only.

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks

Yup as above – you dont have to at all, you may just find alot of people on here or most of the athletes etc dont have manual jobs and thus output and need for energy is lower on rest days so they end up eating less.

I would say a good 30-40% of my clients have the same or very very similar both Training and rest days – some even need to eat more on rest days at times.

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks for your time answeringme

Hey, I eat less as my output is lower on a rest day, if you eat the same as a training day you’ll be too far above your baseline in both a prep to see weight drop well or in a offseason where you’ll see yourself gain too quick

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks so much

Hello mate, just because output is lower on rest day
ie my rest days are just 70kcals less than my training day
Still need decent diet on rest day to recover properly

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks for your time

Yep no set in stone rules here.

Most will have higher carb intake on training days as it makes sense to fuel sessions plus your calorie expenditure will be higher on these days.

I have also had my higher calorie days on rest days in the past as I found I had more time to eat without training getting in the way. This was when I was pushing 8200kcal on high days though so it’s a lot of food and this approach is probably not needed for most people.

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks so much for your answer

You don’t “have” to. The reason I fo it is I expend a LOT of calories in training, so I therefore need a higher intake those days. It doesn’t need to be drastically reduced on a rest day, if you’re in a surplus it will still be the amount needed to recover, just subtract the average calories burned on a training day

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks so much.

As Louis says, your energy demand is generally lower on a rest day, so carb and calorie intake is usually lower and sometimes fats higher. If you have a very active job though, a more linear approach may be necessary.

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Thanks louis tha’s the same I do . The post workout shake I eliminated on rest days.

Hi Nicolas, the main reason that people eat less calories on rest days is that your energy output is usually dramatically lower than a training day. Obviously yes you still need to eat enough calories to recover still! Usually it’s not a huge amount less, In my case my nutrition is very similar on training days and rest days. I only remove my post workout nutrition as it’s not required ofcourse.

[Nicolas Cantemir]

Understood thanks jordan

Because you can’t eat . No one is getting past 4000/4500 cals on orals .

[Nicolas Cantemir]

I will, but nobody explain why

None of us use orals in offseason at all , I don’t know any decent bodybuilders that do

[Nicolas Cantemir]

understood like this I will do

None of us use orals in offseason at all , I don’t know any decent bodybuilders that do

[Nicolas Cantemir]

The idea is

6 weeks susta 750 plus deca 600

6 weeks test cyp 750 plus primo 600

6 weeks test enan 750 plus 600 mast

No dianabol

No t bol
