+ 1 Cheat Day Foods...
ad
I am less than completely diligent in my diet as I am not an aspiring IFBB pro. I just to look pretty good. I was wondering about others cheat day foods and maybe even there "cheat" frequency. I will be honest with mine.
I love homemade burgers with home made buns. It's kinda a passion of mine to make badass burgers. I feel like Bob from Bob's burgers is a component of my personality. I will make them once every 3 weeks. I tried once a month but found that I just didn't get my fix if you know what I mean.
What is the worst thing you put down you throat? NO HOMO LOL.

LOL! I would say that we all have an inner fat kid. It makes me feel better to let him out and play for a bit. But after he gets his "air"...."Mah Fucka Get Back IN YOUR CLOSET!"
Only to quote JK Rowling.
Anyone say pizza and cupcakes??
After every show they always have boxes of pizza and chocolate cupcakes with about 3" of frosting on top waiting for us backstage. Those are really good
Sounds like heaven after what I've heard you guys going through to get there. Nom nom nom nom. Burp!
I got a double maybe triple 5 guys burger response. I think we gotta poll chain restaurants. I would be very interested to hear about foods or chains from across the globe. I feel like someone in here is really good at making polls. Hmmmmm. SHIT!! also no homo?
5 guys is great. I like the “better” burger places because you can still see some pink as they don’t cook the shit out of it. Pink is good. I like pink.
I would agree with this for sure pink wise. I don't however trust the processes of any chain restaurant's practices. I am the only one in my fam who likes things slightly "mooey" but I get my beef and burger from my butcher and slap it on the grill.
I’m not a fan of ham- I prefer roast beef. There’s something about the color pink that doesn’t sit well with me especially the contrast on white breads.
Don't eat white bread! It's racist.
I think we all do
Partial to smoked turkey myself.
I can always go for a good burger. But i can leave the buns atleast hamburger buns outta / off it and go sweet potato fries instead.
I hope you don't wrap that burger in lettuce instead of a bun
No way. Im not letting lettuce get in the way of the taste of beefy burger
Your cheat meal is a fat chick
DUDE! I laughed so stupidly hard... still laughing. No one should eat fat chicks. Not only is it bad for your cholesterol but it tastes like salt and vinegar chips.
God damnit! I'm hungry now.
Hey hey we call them thick now adays
Lol thick and fat are different. In this instance, muscle ways more than fat….
Always does. A pound of muscle has scientifically been proven "literally" to way more than it's pound of fat sister...in-law.
You’re good as long as she doesn’t outweigh your max bench. A safe rule of thumb is don’t get under anything you can’t push off of yourself.
Not on a strict regime right now, but when contest prepping I loved the high carb pancake day. This was used more as a refeed but still was great especially when you barely get any carbs
Then the next day your muscles are so pumped you can't even brush your teeth
No joke lol! I have problems scratching my clavicle area and taking my own pulse.
I share your like of decent burgers. Not the junk from a fast food restaurant though, proper home made with quality meat from a local butcher.
My vice if I’m honest - too many carbs. Pasta, bread. Was the same when I was a kid. Some things don’t change……:
I love whole grain pasta. I make scetty or some other "italian" style dish and let it sit for 24 hrs. The whole grains and the sauce...fuckin damn good. I learned to boil it with some bullion appropriate to the meat in the dish and add oil and garlic cloves. I smell great!
With you on the whole grain. I prefer, people think I’m weird. It tastes better, but apparently only you and I think that.
If I overdo the carbs tonight, I’m blaming any BF% increase on you making me want pasta lol.
Yeah for sure. Whole grain takes some getting used to. But once you have it, it's like going black. You never go back.
I have a bread maker and a dehydrator. I'll dehydrate rando things and run it through a coffee grinder and add it to my bread. Some of my "recipes" if you will have been awesome. I particularly like mixing in dried chilies.
BLIMEY - Great to see you Back Mate!!! One of the True Originals of the site ....
How have you been?
I’m good mate. A few more wounds / battle scars but still hanging in there ;)
You good?
Yes Buddy cheers! It was only the other night I was reading through an old thread and saw you on there - I was thinking I wonder whatever happened to that guy?! I haven't seen him in years, are you still training?
Yes mate. Still very much addicted to the gym. Few more injuries / broken bits these days but still going strong enough to put most of the youngsters in the gym to shame
HAHAHA Great stuff!!! If you don't have at least one knackered body part ya just ain't trying hard enough Lmao
Fruit is my cheat and I eat it everyday lol, which is why I haven’t looked my best but once I’m willing to make the sacrifice, I’ll look pretty good.
Ok i don’t get it, Fruits is your cheat meal?, I mean fruits would not affect in any way shape or form your physic in a bad way
Not sure I would say in a "bad way" but if I eat too many fruits I get the toots and I bloat. I would never cut my fruit intake out. If I'm going to eat sweets then I'm eating something that grew on a tree and not a deep fryer.
It can, particularly if already in a calorie surplus.

Ok…
Once a week on a high day, paleo pancakes in the AM and burger with fries on the PM.
That sounds good as shit. I had to look up "paleo pancakes". I might try this. I think my family would love them. I usually make them with buttermilk when I do though. So good!
I'm not so strict with my diet because why be miserable? lolol I'm not big on sweets.
I do love thai food so I'll eat a fuck ton of that when I want it.
DreamlordJust take the Time with family and eat what i want, it is simple, it can be burger or a meal with veggies.
You can eat clean with pleasure
A 5 guys double cheeseburger
I never have cheat days. Only refeed days
cheat days becomes refeed days when u are a pro
I cheat at least 2 meals per week, but am sure the rest of them are on point and i can easily keep 12% BF year around, my go to is BBQ
My weekly cheat "meal" is booze. Saturday night I'm usually goofin it up and drinking with my buddies.
Enjoy in moderation
Get rid of that Vice brotha, it’s terrible for you and degrades our reasoning.
Yeah you're not wrong.
I rarely go below 13-14% BF, I just don’t feel great at 12%. However I’m in the same mindset as you, I’m not stepping on any stages, I just do this for personal satisfaction and vanity. Although I’m out of shape at the moment, I’m in the best shape of anyone at work. Funny how that works out. Anyway, when I’m on a full cycle, I give myself 2 cheat meals per week, meals, not days. Keeps me happy and healthy, bloods always come back favorable. Saying that, those 2 meals are whatever I want. It’s gotten ugly in the past as I’m a fan of fast food burgers and tacos lol. Enjoy life buddy, none of us know if we’re coming back or going somewhere else after our time here, do what feels good. Within reason of course.
One of my favorite cheat meal/snack is a honey bun with peanut butter. I know it has a ton of sugar but it's high carb/calories and protein. But luckily I have a very fast metabolism and growing up my parents had me on a very strict healthy diet just like Bill commented below and it's.very hard for me to bulk so I need all the carbs I can get honestly.
