I'm about to cut for a couple of months and i've been asking several PT's and big guys at my gym what is the best way of lifting when trying to get ripped, and you know what? they all say something totally different!
i've heard...
- keep lifting heavy, cutting is all about diet
- choose 2 exercises (per BP) drop the weight to 50% of max and bust out 10 sets of 10 on each
- lift the same as on a bulk but increase the rep range to 12-20 reps per set
they are just a few... i guess they all work but i'm just after knowing which 1 will work best for me
a bit about myself, i'm a ectomorph, 6 ft 2, around 13.5-14st / 185-190lsb at the moment, BF is recorded at 17% and i'm looking to get that down to about 10%, i'm going to be doing lots CV anyway to burn off cals/fat, basically i am not a fat bodytype at all but i have a lot of baby fat on me that is really hard to shift on my arse and legs and face which i wanna get rid of (its giving me a soft look which i don't like), its crazy coz i have abs and upper body is lean but the rest of me looks wrong so i do need to get rid of the fat before its too late
anyway with that in mind please help me choose how i should lift while cutting
many thanks
