If anyone has ever been curious about the effects of a cheat week......
Prior to cheat week:
~2,500 calories/day
Weight 204-207
Cheat week:
Avg 5,000 calories/day
Weight 213-215
Didn't change the types of foods I ate (with the exception of egg rolls one night), but greatly increased the quantity of regular food (eggs, chicken, protein bars, etc.)
Thought I'd at least feel strong as hell in the gym, but felt about a crappy as I look. Holding water and constantly bloated. Not going to lie. I enjoyed having a full plate, but feeling and looking this crapy wasn't worth it.
Actions have consequences. Going back to plan and will post an update next week.
