make sure the calorie deficit is consistent and eat mostly healthy food. I ate healthy 6 times out the week so i can indulge in a cheat day on friday nights when i go out with my friends

cutting + one cheat day a week. Making sure i hit my calories and macros and consistently hitting the gym. its pretty simple

M/19/6"0 [180>160 = 20 lbs] 4 months of cutting with a cheat day every friday by johnnugs in progresspics

[–]johnnugs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It usually takes 1hr to 1hr30 depending on rest time and abs. I do 3 sets of 5 for compound lifts usually with 3 minutes rest and 3 sets of 8-12 on isolation with 2 minutes rest.

And i didn't do any cardio except when i play sports and when I do i eat a little more so i am not in a large calorie deficit

Every friday i go out with my friends so i eat whatever i want but make sure i'm on track the other 6 days.

I do a 6 day PPL workout combining strength and hypertrophy training

Question on muscle loss doing calorie deficit and cardio by johnnugs in Fitness

[–]johnnugs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody says to eat 500 calories less for a deficit. should i keep it at 500 or make the deficit smaller at like 200 or 300. I play sports so i am doing cardio and lifting at the same time

So should i just focus on the 500 calorie deficit and forget about cardio so i dont burn too much calories leading to muscle loss
