Hey Nation...

 

Need some advice once again...

 

Im starting a deload week tomorrow, Ive hit a hard full body workout today, just for good measure. what Im wondering is... do i keep eating at a 300-500 calorie surplus above maitenance as I do while on my normal workout schedual or should I adjust some macros down for the deload week. Any other advice would be extremley helpful..

 

Keep In mind my goal is to gain Muscle Mass. I assume I would need to eat at a surplus to supprt the muscle growth during the deload week... But Im unsure,

 

 

Thanx in advance,

 

#HTH

Hey man.

 

When you deload, the idea is to give the muscles and your CNS a bit of rest, to avoid over-taxing it. It's also to ensure your muscles keep growing. To do that, you should keep eating the same as you would during a normal training week.

I remember when we approached our rowing coach about deloading. He laughed and told us we deload every night for 8 hours in our beds. F'in comedian, eh!? haha.

He should quit his job as a rowing coach and take up stand up comedy
