    cutting and slowing metabolism

    If you're restricting calories for too long is it possible that your metabolism will slow down?

    Also, is it possible that your t-levels can drop from cutting for a long period of time?

    Yes. You should take periodic diet breaks (refeeds) with increasing frequency as you get leaner or go on specific diets.

    No gym for home, work out floor with 30, but is it for 20 like 30 lb when you no lift it to be for men, for 30 lbs instead? or half is 10 for 20 pounds?

    so on a refeed day I will be eating in a caloric surplus correct? like lets say I usually cut at 3000 cals a day. Then on a refeed day I'll go over 3000, right?

    Correct. Read up on refeeds in the stickies. How much you need to refeed or how often depends entirely on your diet and current bodyfat levels which are currently unknown to us.

    Feel free to post it up
