Net, meaning the suggested calories are what you eat AFTER the workouts.

For example, if I eat the 1889 it suggests for workout days, and I burn 350 (per my HRM), then my net calories eaten for that day would be 1539, which is LESS than the suggested for non-workout days.

Therefore, I would consistently be eating fewer calories than suggested for days in which I workout. And that's MAINTENANCE level, not fat loss.

Does that make sense?

Thanks!
