Sorry. One confusing HST weekend for me! In the FAQ book, Bryan writes:
"If your calories are really cut, and you don't want to eat maintenance for 2 weeks, don't SD. Move right into the 15s after your 5s. Not only that, but go ahead and extend the 5s as long as your joints are keeping up (i.e. feeling good)."
This is very confusing to me. Why would someone on a calorie restriction be given a pass to skip SD and move right into a new HST cycle? I would think if anyone would be given a pass to do this, it would be someone with a calorie surplus; not someone dieting.
Any help?
Thanks.
