You may already know that having a strategically planned "cheat meal" can help you get leaner faster.
But what you may not know is there is a very specific formula you MUST follow when you have your "cheat meal" in order for them to be truly effective.
First -- it's best to have your cheat meal on the weekend. Simply because that's when you're more likely to hang out with friends, order pizza or grab a bite at a new restaurant. Weekend cheat meals just work better with regular life.
Second -- You'll want to confine your cheat meal to a very specific window. A cheat meal can be a good thing. But not when a cheat meal turns into a cheat day, which then turns into a cheat week, etc...
Third -- and most important of all -- you must NEVER cut carbs during your cheat meal. That's because eating a certain number of carbs actually BOOSTS your metabolism.
