Thread: While cutting

Keep the weights the same, only you might find volume/intensity becomes an issue what with you being in a caloric defecit. Try to keep the intensity up but sometimes I reduce the volume a bit if I start to feel overtrained.

I don't change a thing. Continuing to lift heavy and hard is very important to ensure that your body knows it cannot give up what muscle it has unless absolutely necessary. You have to tell that bitch who's boss.

i keep the weights heavy. i train fairly light all the time, so i dont need to reduce any intensity while cutting. i usually do 2-4 sets, with the last set almost or to failure. for each exercise that is, not total :P
about 16-18 sets total per day, to give u an idea of the intensity.

but theres no reason to reduce the weights in my opinion. that high reps=fat loss stuff is bologna in my opinion. works better to manage the diet and maybe add a little cardio if i need to.

Like I've said before, the regime that got you your muscle is the regime that's going to help you keep it. Don't change just because you're goal is to get shredded rather than bigger.

I usualy go from 3 sets of about 8 reps per body part during bulking to a 12-10-8-6-10 scheme for cutting, so of course, I need to adjust the loads a bit.

i just do a 1.6 mile run outside in fresh air once a week atm in about 9:30 after another 2-3 weeks im going to do it twice a week, but thats enough cardio for me so body fat stays pretty low and i still eat tons. my parents are moaning cause ive been eating them out of house and home lol, so as soon as i get job ive got to by my own share of the extra food i want which is fair enough
