It really has to do with what makes compliance easier for you.

If you are maintaining or even slowly gaining I would not reduce calories on non training days. If you are working hard enough you will need the calories to recover and progress. That does not mean pig out on non training days however.

noted Thanks!

I try, but occasionally the temptation of roasted duck neck is too much :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Thanks for making me more hungry than I already am… hmmmmmm duck :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I actually don’t like the pancake or hoisin sauce. It takes away from the crispness of the skin

I’m not a big fan of hoisin but that fatty crispy skin is soooooo gooooood

The bottom of the neck has the most unctuous skin

Go to DaDong if possible.

It’s honestly worth the trip to NYC or Shanghai

I really enjoyed ordering duck in Beijing because of how they present you its head on a plate like you’re some kind of conquering king and the duck is an enemy that has wronged you.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Literally.

I beeline for the head- before ripping through it’s deliciously roasted flesh

so sorry… You’re really missing out

As long as he didn’t take the duck out of your mouth too !!

Are you a southerners as well?
I’ve come to realise in my advanced age that I’m just not classy enough for “authentic food”. I’d rather have the MSG laden gelatinous mess that we call Chinese take away around here.
