Getting Cut!

[marshallbenji0]

Hey everyone,

I have been doing some reading and know that the key to getting cut is eating right.... I have good mass but I want to know if anyone has a good weights program or can link me to one to help me get as cut as possible. Doing h.i.i.t (Anaerobic Cardio) Will that play a big role? Thank you.

Your weights program shouldn't change when dieting.

The most important thing is counting calories, apps like myfitnesspal will help you with that.

Pics of me when I'm relaxed and when I'm flexing. I'm going to the gym doing random exercises atm but I'm going to be changing my eating habits. I want help with a weights program that would be good for getting me cut. Thank You. Btw I finished a meal like 30 mins to an hour before the relaxed pics lol

I mean't SHOULDN'T change when dieting, apart from avoiding failure if you can.

Looking at the photos you have some decent muscle mass, and good shape.

oh ok. Most of the stuff I do is Heavy 6-10 reps, some super sets in there. Whats the story with, if you want to be lean and cut you do high reps with a light weight and do a lot of h.i.i.t anaerobic sessions?

A myth!

Doing lighter weights might make it harder to hold onto muscle as you are no longer putting it under considerable load so there is no need for that muscle tissue. Your body is trying to be as efficient as it can and when in a deficit you will more lucky eat more muscle away as muscle tissue has high energy requirements.

Leave cardio as cardio and weight training as weight training.

Cardio also isn't required for weight loss, as long as are able to count your macros and ensure that you are in a deficit. This doesn't mean zero carbohydrates or fats btw.

Got to freedieting.com and enter your stats to find your maintenance calories and then reduce that by 500 calories. Then design your own diet to fit those calories I generally use 40% protein 40% carbohydrates and 20% fat.

If you want to use a IIFYMs approach to your diet you can use tools like myfitnesspal as mentioned above. myfitnesspal.com

Thanks! 2-3 h.i.i.t sessions will cut a lot of fat fast? for example I will jog for 1 min then go 80% for another min and do that 10 times.

[jimmybro1]

It will help.

But you have to remember weightloss is an energy balance you want to be putting out more than you are taking in order to loss weight.

Thanks. I'm going to be doing a 4 gym sessions a week and two h.i.i.t sessions Be nice to see what results I get in the next 3 weeks before I really start getting busy. Once you are happy with your mass and how cut you are. What is the key to maintaining it so you don't keep get bigger and bigger lol

If you don't want to get bigger then make sure you eat at maintenance level. Don't eat more than you're burning off in any given day.

This will work.. as long as your not Samoan, Tongan or Maori. If you are... you're guna get huge regardless. God obviously used codes with the p.i's... cept for the cookies.
