MetPro will switch you between up-adjusting and down-adjusting cycles.
Up-adjusting conditions your metabolism to more frequent meals and increased food intake. Most people see improved metabolic ratings during up-adjusts. When combined with exercise, up-adjusting is a powerful metabolic tool that speeds your metabolism. On the other hand, prolonged restriction will slow your metabolism. A high metabolic rating signals that your next weight loss attempt (fat burning cycle) is more likely to succeed. MetPro considers your average weight, progress, and time spent in each phase when making new recommendations.
Down-adjusting is primarily for fat burning. Just remember, you can’t decrease indefinitely. Your metabolic rating drops as your body adapts to less fuel. How much progress you make down-adjusting is usually based on how high you can push your metabolic rating during the up-adjust.
If your goal is set to build muscle, diet cycles work a little differently since you’ll spend the majority of your time on a revving cycle for the enhanced recovery and muscle building benefits.
