I'm aiming to start my cut in January. I'm aiming to cut between 35 and 40 pounds, to reach between 9% and 12% bf (not that I'm actually doing any proper measurements to know %).

At 2lbs per week, that could be about 20 weeks. Five months.

Anyone ever cut for five fucking months straight? Is there a better way? I've only ever done one successful cut, and it wasn't even on purpose (because I was a dumb ass), and in two months I dropped somewhere between 15 and 20 pounds.

sounds like a

I'm in one actually. I aim for 1lb a week and going at it for around 15weeks
What u mean by a better way to cut?

pfft im losing a pound a day or every two days (until i cheat)

slam that calorie deficit and HIIT cardio.
shit could take 2 months.

what good is a 2 month cut if you lost 6 months of progress in the process

Mate I could go from 10% to 5% and lose minimal gains in 5 weeks

minimum muscle loss if you do it properly and work hard enough.
you'll always lose muscle, not hard to keep it at a minimum if you're not retarded.

incorporate full diet breaks

I think he was referring to the 6 month cut. Could be wrong though.

Wouldn't mind if you went into more detail with the caloric deficit and HIIT though.

both pretty straight forward no?
ive shredded pounds doing 30 minutes of HIIT on the stepper fasted cardio.
and eating in a calorie deficit. Mostly water and carb depletion as of now.

you can literally see the changes of water in your body in 3-4 days, or at least I did.
and im drinking 5-6 liters a day.

if also put on mass in areas during this cut.
especially my chest/back
