Ok, I am pretty familiar with refeeding while on a very low carb diet, but what about on a 40c/30p/30f ratio? Since I am doing the 15s this cycle, I have bumped my carbs to increase lactic acid production but still want to shed more fat. My overall calories have remained around 500-700 below maintenance throughout.
So I assume I should still refeed to boost leptin, but what should the refeed consist of? Should it be the same as before, with high GI carbs and low fat with 1gm/lb of protein? I usually start on Saturday morning and go to Sunday night. On Saturday, I have been trying to get well above maintenance and on Sunday I try to eat at maintenance with the same macronutrient makeup. Should I stick with the same length (36h)?
Any advice woudl be greatly appreciated.
