Replace Calories Lost During Exercise?

❓ Help

If I’m at ~800 kcal/day and I’m “allegedly” expending 750 kcal during exercise (steady state, low effort stationary bike while playing TFT lol), should I be replacing those kcal with more food?

No, just make sure to get enough protein, water, and electrolytes.

No.

The book also tells you not to do excessive LISS. LISS that gets you to 750 cal is like a couple of hours of effort. That’s too much. Even assuming that your calorie tracker for how much you’re burning is correct, which it probably isn’t.
