so I've been lifting for about 4 years now, never really had a "set" diet usually just followed what ever huge mf at the gym said to get a lot of protein and eat like shit once a week preferable leg day. my maxes are alright I gusse I'm about 205 rn about 16% bf 270 bench 315 squat 355 DL but recently I decided to cut down for summer I started intermediate fasting because I needed the extra help to get me cut faster because I started so late into summer. I was noticing great results.. intill I tried cutting out carbs, then 2 days into no carbs I went to hit legs and about 45 mins in I really almost passed out.. so I gusse I just need some advice from someone who has been here like what to eat maybe a carb cycle? should I or should I not fast?? idk, thanks in advance!

imo, when cutting, it should be a very slow process where you gradually cut out carbs from your diet while gradually decreasing your calorie intake to end up in a deficit

lots of people cut too fast (i've made this mistake myself several times) and end up losing a lot of weight, but a lot of muscle too, and therefore a lot of strength

my advice would be to find your maintenance number and start by cutting only 200 calories from that and see how you progress. If you end up stalling for a few weeks, cut down 200 more calories. No need to lose 15 pounds in a month, you'll lose much more months of training

cut calories (mostly carbs/fats) to end up in a deficit, it takes time if you dont want to crash diet and lose ur gains
