I'm eating 2500 calories on non training days, 5 meals a day.
I eat an extra 500 calories on the two days a week I lift weights, Friday and Tuesday. I take in the extra 500 calories in the form of a post workout shake.
I stated doing this, instead of eating 2500 for 6 days and then having a cheat day on day 7.
Cheat meals started making feel like crap. So instead of using a cheat day to bump my metabolism, I bump it 2 times a week with the post workout shake.

I eat the same everyday except my post-workout shakes.
So ~400 calories less on non-workout days.
As for the "body grows outside of the gym, not in it". True, but not on a cut. It should be "body repairs itself outside the gym, not in it". Just sayinadd me : http://www.********.com/mbobilin

Eh even if it was effective, there is no way I can stay away from the gym 5 days per week. The highlight of my day is going to the gym. I have to literally force myself to stay home on recovery days.
I do believe you can build muscle and lose fat by doing that. Eat a caloric surplus on your training days and the rest of the week eat a caloric deficit. I'm sure that's what its about. Am I right?add me : http://www.********.com/mbobilin

I've seen a few suggestions. zigzag, higher fat lower carb on off days. I went nuts this winter with junkfood trying to bulk.... I didn't realize how much fat I put on, so now I'm cutting/trying to conserve gains. my daily expenditure seems to be around 3200-3400 calories. I have lost no weight, but have lost 2 inches on my "love handles" and 1.5 on my waistline. These are measurements I took after two weeks of eating very clean, so I doubt it's still water retetion going away. so technically I've been dieting for a month, but only started tracking it two weeks ago. I follow a simple diet. 7 ounces of chicken, a serving(or two ) of healthy veggie IE broc brussel sprouts, and any leafy type 6 times a day. mon-fri I use carbs as I need them. 20-30 grams when i wake up 20-60 preworkout (leg days are higher) then one more whenever I feel like it EVEN before bed occasionally. non training days I eat 5 ounces of chicken and a veggie six times a day. i workout 6-9 times a week though so your portions should alot lower only hitting the gym twice a week. Before anyone says something about me over training 2-3 times a week I'm just doing light weight/stretching sessions, and I take a day off per week and avery three weeks i take two off. I just wanted to share this, because I'm very happy so far with no weight loss, just bf loss. I'm sure i'll have to change it up in a few weeks. I plan on doing a high fat diet for the last 4 lbs.

I do IF on every workout day, and take around 150g of carbs. I will typically not intermittent fast on an off day, and consume a little more carbs and calories that day. I do this because if i am taking a day off, its because my body is burnt out and needs to recover. I love fasting every day but there is possible cortisol increase that can combine with the rise from overtraining to stop gains. I can kinda tell when i am needing to replenish my glycogen stores and will consume closer to 250 or 300 carbs on an off day.
Every now and then i will take a day off from the gym and do a protein fast and consume almost all fat one day with calories under 1000, only during a bulk tho.ig- jwarrenfit
