=== Refeed Day Rundown (03:54) ===

[00:00:12]  Greetings servants, welcome back to Gaines Fucking Kitchen.
[00:00:18]  I am rocking my cross and Odin.
[00:00:22]  That's a sign of unity between Christians and pagans.
[00:00:25]  I also have The Hammer of Thor and the Cross grants me optimal gains and glory.
[00:00:35]  And the reason for that is I'd rather focus on the positive sides of Christianity.
[00:00:40]  I love Christian aesthetics.
[00:00:42]  I love churches.
[00:00:43]  I love angels.
[00:00:44]  I love church music, everything like that.
[00:00:46]  But that's not what this video is about.
[00:00:48]  This video is about refeed days.
[00:00:51]  So I'm sister the Shuppa and we have behind me.
[00:00:54]  And now it is not a cheat day.
[00:00:56]  It's a refeed day.
[00:00:58]  And now you ask, oh, what's the difference?
[00:01:00]  The difference is, let's look at the articles I have behind me.
[00:01:03]  Some good old bread, because we all love bread.
[00:01:06]  I can't understand these gluten allergics or whatever they want to refer to themselves as.
[00:01:12]  For me, bread is for optimal gains and glory.
[00:01:15]  Got some milk.
[00:01:17]  Do you all remember this from my 12,000 calories challenge?
[00:01:21]  Start Miss Lee.
[00:01:23]  We also got a good amount of gel ignite.
[00:01:27]  And now you ask, what in the actual fuck is going on here?
[00:01:31]  If this isn't a cheat meal, what is?
[00:01:34]  Now, the difference, if you contemplate what this is, it's basically all carbs, carbohydrates getting in my body.
[00:01:42]  Now a cheat day is just something to reward yourself mentally.
[00:01:46]  This is not about the mental reward per se.
[00:01:50]  This is about replenishing my muscle glycogen.
[00:01:53]  Because if I have been low on carbs over an extended period of time, a few days, a week perhaps, this also depends on how lean you are.
[00:02:02]  For me right now, maybe once a week this can be appropriate.
[00:02:05]  Then when I get back to like 9% body fat, twice a week maybe, a large refid could be appropriate.
[00:02:13]  It is nothing to do with like motivating myself to have a break from the diet.
[00:02:18]  It's just about replenishing the muscle glycogen because when you train hard and heavy, your muscles will burn out the fuel like the muscle glycogen which is carbohydrates.
[00:02:28]  Then you have to take a day and you just push in a lot of carbs in the muscle again.
[00:02:34]  So you can actually be at a caloric surplus yet not store any fat just because you the energy goes into the muscle instead.
[00:02:42]  Now the key to a successful carb refid is in keeping it not keeping it clean obviously but keeping it keeping it to carbs.
[00:02:52]  So you want to have as low a fat as possible.
[00:02:55]  So I'm trying to get as little fat as possible.
[00:02:58]  Now this milk will obviously contain a bit of fat.
[00:03:00]  The start will also contain just a bit of fat and I mean you will get in some fat but try to keep it at a minimum.
[00:03:07]  So if you have a regular cutting day you have the fat decently high to keep your hormonal balance on top.
[00:03:15]  But the refiday just low the fat, low the protein slightly but then again like you will probably get in a lot of protein either way so this milk for example.
[00:03:25]  So this package of milk and if I even drink more milk will land me at grams of protein for the day so I mean you will get in the proteins focus is mainly on carbs to replenish your glycogen and then you will feel you will start to sweat and everything like that.
[00:03:41]  That's only normal.
[00:03:43]  So that's basically what a refid is.
[00:03:45]  It's not a cheat day where you eat everything.
[00:03:47]  So don't go around eating pizza and stuff like that because that's basically a half fat half carb so it doesn't suit your purpose here.
[00:03:53]  Simply just get in the carbs.
[00:03:56]  So I hope that has been informative and I hope you it helps in your fat loss journey.
[00:04:03]  Anyway my, there's a secret I'll never tell XXXO.
