Pretty simple. However, the reason this works well is because it. When you overfeed (cheat), leptin levels get bumped back up, increasing rate of fat loss. Scheduling a period of fasting subsequent to a cheat day, therefore, does two things: Prevents any fat gain from the caloric spillover of eating, oh, I dunno, 1. Elevated leptin levels from the cheat prevent stagnated fat loss, allowing the hormonal benefit from the fast (explained HERE) to proceed uninterrupted. More than anything, this is just a practical approach, and was created to alleviate discomfort. I started using this method before looking into science of any kind; it just happened to work.
