Someone who maintain weight on 3100 kcals will have an easier cut than someone with a damaged metabolism with a 1800 kcals maintenance.
Reverse dieting = repairing the metabolism by slowly increasing kcals. (often 35-50 kcals per weeks). Some people even lose weight while doing it.
So I drop like 300-500 kcal, and then add 35-50 kcal each week for a couple weeks then drop again and repeat?
Gonna focus on keeping my #s the same, for as long as I can. Iirc Lightman said not to do >7 reps, particularly once I’m truly in a deficit and losing weight.
How people actually gain strength while cutting is crazy to me. Never been able to do it.
