Should You Eat Back The Calories Burned From Exercise (if you have your caloric deficit)?

[OrdinaryGentleman]

Yes

No

[Flex4Ever]

Example:
Say your maintenance is 2000 calories
You want to loose weight so you eat 1800 calories
You do cardio and excercises to burn 500 calories
1800-500= 1300 2000-1300= 700 calorie deficit which is way too low
Eat back your calories so you stay in a healthy deficit.

2500 for a long run is a really nice cut. I would ear that, and do as much HIIT cardio as you can on top of your diet👍 you'll def reach your goals then✌
