How much of a deficit to run while cutting?

no more than 1% of your bw/week. 0.8% of bw/week was done in study on elite athletes and they even gained muscle and strength on a cut

this is a good guideline

the usual 500 calorie deficit is way, way too conservative in my experience

have had best results with 1000 cal deficit, high protein

>>40923740
So if I'm up around 200lbs I can eat at a -800 deficit or something like that to drop like 1.5 lbs a week?

> 8 * 700 = 5600
yes

Cool shit thanks brehs. How's this look for a sample diet?

Uhh. You should split that chicken up. Your body can only process 30g protein an hour.

broscience. you'll just end up digesting for a longer period of time, and since most people sleep within a few hours of eating dinner it's not a problem

Time stamp a picture of your degree in nutrition. I'll wait.

>>40923721
you'll be fine on a 1k cal deficit if you eat enough protein and keep lifting intensely

>>40924590
>implying it takes a degree in nutrition to understand it
mine is in biochemistry, so i'll have to pass. do you have any fuckin evidence? because i have yet to see anything peer reviewed that backs up your bullshit claim
