Cheat as in eat 'junk food' while trying to build. I usually eat McDonalds or something once a month and hope to burn that the very same day.

eating mcdonalds once a month isn't that bad actually. if you want to be in shape, that doesn't mean you should completely stop junk food. actually, ive got six pack abs and i still eat mcdonalds/subway whatever once in a while. so really dont feel guilty about stuff like that.

like every 2 weeks but only once in that 2 weeks

I don't even touch that garbage, i just stick to some italian bmt's from subway yum

the whole 'one hamburger doesn't hurt' mentality is very dangerous if you're aiming to be the best because you're desensitising yourself to the most basic, simple principle of 'junk food = bad.' Yeah, one Big Mac isn't gonna kill you but if you become set in the way of 'one a month isn't gonna hurt', then it's only a matter of time before it becomes 'one a fortnight doesn't hurt' and so on. The reason 'cheat' foods are so dangerous is because they have a high energy density - this confuses the brain and rather than filling you up it encourages you to eat even more -I'm sure some of you have experienced this feeling of just being able to eat and eat stupid amounts of junk food in the days following intense training sessions...it's because the appetite system has become confused. It makes it incredibly difficult to settle into a normal, healthy eating routine.

i fuckin love subway and kfc, i eat from them all the fuckin time

Doing IF and IIFYM so whenever I want
