The best thing to do in cutting is to not overdo it. You don't gain weight overnight so you won't lose it overnight either. Eat lots of protein, about 1g per pound of bodyweight, go online and find out how many calories you need to ingest daily to lose about 1-3 lbs per week, cause this way you can maximize fat loss while minimizing muscle loss. Eat 5-6 times a day, and as far as training goes, pick a split that you like and do cardio everyday you workout. I usually do a low intensity day and then a high intensity day. I walk on the low intensity days, usually about 30 min. and on the high days play basketball, until I feel worn out. But don't get discouraged when 2 weeks go by and you have only lost 4 lbs, I know too many people that quit because after a month they can't see anything different. Well, I always think this, most people don't realize they have gained a bunch of weight. They always seem surprised when they step on a scale and are like, "man, I need to lose some weight!" Same thing for losing weight, you won't notice it but people around you will, and you will notice, it will take like at least 2 months depending on you body type. But stick to it, you may like the way I do it or not, but whatever style you choose, stick to it. Nothing works if you don't do it, but almost everything works if you do. |
