Fat today, Shredded tomorrow

Hey yall

Its been awhile since I have posted on here, Im just not that much of a social bird. I probably spend about 2 hours a day following logs and doing research on here, so I am definitely around. I have a quick question for yall tho. I have been training for years and definitely started off with the body of an ectomorph. I have found no need to cut because the highest bf% I have reached so far is 12%. I am now at 12-13% and I am still bulking. This summer I am doing plenty of research in order for me to do my first serious cut. That is months away and not too much of my concern. However, spring break is around the corner and I want to do a quick 10 day cut and see what I can do. So far the plan is to switch over to the keto diet, but Im not gunna load up on carbs for 14 days. Im doing this due to my carb day would be right before I go off to the island and I dont wanna look bloated when I get there. I will definitely incorporate some cardio and up the intensity of my workouts. I am goin to try clen for my first time and I am currently on half a gram of test ethanate a week. So my question is, any tips or info yall have for me that will make the best out of a 10 day cut?

My stats are 6 ft even, 205 lbs, and about 13% bf

I honestly don't have an exact goal because I don't know what is exactly reasonable. Just trying to shred a few pound in a few days. No unrealistic goals here.

I posted this in the diet section because my question is about cutting. I know I mentioned anabolics, but I have no questions about them. By all means, recommend supplements if you think they will benefit me in this current situation. Lemme know if yall need more details or have any questions.

I appreciate everyone that contributes to this thread and all threads on here. I love the unity and sharing of the wealth. Thanks

10 days is a very short period of time to cut. Your bodyfat is at 13% so assuming you'd want to be at around 8% bodyfat you would need to drop 10lbs of fat...in 10 days. That's 1lbs per day which would require a 3500 calorie deficit each day. If you did lose 10lbs in 10 days, I would assume at least 5 of that would be muscle due to the extreme lack of calories.

I am NO expert, this is just my opinion. If I were you I would try to lose 1 to 2lbs of fat per week by eating a 500 calorie deficit each day and training as you mentioned. Also make sure you get at least 1.5 grams of protein per lbs of body weight each day.

I am only goin in a 500 calorie deficit on this one and i will do the same this summer for my real cut. Just wanna see what I can do in 10 days. Dont expect any ridiculous loss if bf. Just wanna deplete my glycogen stores and lose a lil water weight for better trimmed look. Protien and fat will remain high on the diet. My cycle aint over so I know and am content with gaining whatever I lose right when I get back from spring break. Just looking for some extra tips to look a little leaner in 10 days. Thanx for the help Nelson. Keep the comment coming
