Як розрахувати Calorie Cycling

Що таке Calorie Cycling?

Calorie cycling (also called calorie shifting) involves alternating between higher- and lower-calorie days while maintaining the same weekly calorie deficit. The 5:2 approach uses 5 lower-calorie days and 2 maintenance days. Proponents claim it reduces metabolic adaptation to dieting and can improve adherence by providing psychological relief on higher-calorie days.
