What about cheat days?
Some keen trainers like to include so called ‘cheat’ days into their plans, where they can consume whatever they like (cheat meals) and lots of it!
Obviously there’s more scope for ‘cheating’ when following a muscle building plan, as opposed to fat loss training routine, and whilst this can give some psychological relief, and indeed add variety into your diet, ‘cheat’ days too regularly could be detrimental to progress.
For this reason we prefer the term ‘treat’ to ‘cheat’ and treat meals (as opposed to entire days) may be incorporated into your diet plan as often as once or twice per week on a mass gain, though less frequently if your goal is to lose fat.
For treat meals you may like to simply go out to your favourite restaurant for a meal.
