I posted this question on Anabolic Minds a few hours ago with no replies yet, so I figured I'd give it a shot here.
Question for the Avant Folks. For my upcoming summer cut I will be doing a Layne Norton style diet where my normal days will be around 10-11xbw in kcal and refeeds around maintanence.
My question is, is there a point to apply Napalm/Lipoderm on refeed days since there will be very little of a caloric deficiet for the day?
Appreciate the response.

I would personally still use it on refeeds to keep the effects going and possibly diminish any temporary weight gain. However, it wouldn't hurt you to miss a day either if you feel it would be a waste. It's really up to you and what works best for you. You could either drop it for refeed days or lower dosage so that you're still getting the benefits from it, but not over-doing it while on maintanence calories.

why didn't you just ask me directly mayne? You know I work with Layne as well.
I applied it on refeed days as well. Won't hurt anything.Realize that anyone with an affiliation to a supplement company in their signature has ulterior motives when making recommendations. They're primarily concerned with pushing their products. Not your safety or what's best for you.

We have in the past recommenced against applying it on refeed days, but it was perhaps short sited when you consider how dynamic the body works. If your worried about having it go to waste, then skip it, otherwise stick to your standard protocol.
It will ultimate depend on your personal philosophy in regards to maximizing every application, since refeed days will be characterized by an abundance of calories thereby temporarily reducing the fat-liberating processes facilitated by Napalm.Avant Research R&D/Rep

I'm starting napalm tomorrow. But even with Absolve, and the lipo's I used it on refeeds. My bro-opinion is to keep it consistant. I look at it over the total time of application, not just one day. I never noticed any re-locating of the fat on higher caloric days. How much will you actually store in these days? probably minimal. Also, Having issues with gut fat I could care a less if it goes else where, the rest of me stays pretty lean. It's easier burning elsewhere.
