Just don't overdo it! It's a refeed, not a binge.

Couldn't agree more. Keeps you sane and makes progress more consistent.

I always feel so much stronger in the gym the day after a refeed meal.

Timing your refeed after your most intense workout can maximize the benefit of carb utilization for muscle recovery.

And remember, refeed days are about strategic replenishment, not a free-for-all. Stick to clean, complex carbs!

MacroMancer, I usually go up to maintenance calories or slightly above, mostly from carbs. I try to keep fats low so the extra calories are predominantly from carbs.
