I don't think you are suppose to adjust your levels on a day to day basis. The quiz is suppose to be your average and so you eat the same everyday. At least that is what I have been doing. So when rest week came, Leigh already lowered your calorie intake for you by going to 40% deficit so if you redid your activity mutipler you would end up TOO low. Or perhaps I misunderstood the plan.
