Hey guys. Whats up?
So, next week I m starting a mini-cut with the objective to lose 5-10 pounds in 4 weeks. This is the 10th month of my clean bulking but I added some fat and I would like to get rid of it. The mini-cut will take place from 1-31 December and I already started Intermittent Fasting. 16h fasting 8 hours eating. Towards the end of the cut I will alter it to 20h fasting 4 hours eating. I really want to try it because it has helped so many people!
Anyway my question is about training style.
I m thinking about doing the following :
- Keep doing the same hypertrophy workouts I m currently doing, heavy weights, high volume, around 45 minutes but not flirt too much with failure
- Immediately after, 10-15 minutes of moderate to hard elliptical machine cardio to raise my pulse to 150-160.
- Immediately after, 20-25 minutes of the following circuit : Pullups, Dips, Walking Lunges, Pushups.
Do you think this will help burn the necessary calories for me to lose weight without losing muscle?
I will be on a 400-500 calorie deficit every day, and as I said my objective is 5-10 pounds fat loss, so about 20.000 to 30.000 calories.
