Thread: Cutting diets! which one?

Which diet is the best, I have been on anabolic diet for a month or so and the results are 2lbs a week are typical so I think this diet might be more of a bulking then anything. But I was wondering what you guys would recommend if I should go with a 40/40/20 diet or if you guys have any other ideas regarding this. My weight is 210 and my body fat is 19.1% my goal is to get to 10% by end of August. Is this possible?

Above and beyond that - everything is fluff...


If you want to hit 10% by August you have to lose ~9% BF, which is ~2% (~4-5 pounds) per month. That is very do-able (esp in regards to the first few %'s)... Just create yourself a diet that will give you ~1-1.5 pounds a week of fat loss and you will be fine.

what she said.. make sure you dont do it to fast
