The topic pretty much sums up my question that I have been pondering for a while now.

Assume 2000 Kcal is 500 Kcal below maintenance, and you are doing 1 cardio session/day

If you eat 2500 Kcal and add 1 more cardio session that burns off 500 more Kcal, so you are technically still 500 Kcal below maintenance...

Is this a huge change? Will you melt fat much faster on the 2500 and 2 cardios?

You are eating more in option 2 and exercising more in option 2

Deficit is same in both cases, 500 Kcal

Any feedback?

I am considering switching things up

Bump

Wondering if anyone has opinions or experience with this idea....

Thanks

it's better to do 2 - yes.
make sure you allow yourself a rest day, though.
