Losing fat without losing too much muscle
I will be coming off a bulking cycle and will be ready to cut withing the next month. I have been reading alot about the best way to do this and think that this may work. I am 6'1", 230lbs, not sure of my bodyfat, but most of my fat is in my gut.
I am thinking about eating hardly any carbs on non workout days and as many as 150 grams of carbs on workout days. (mainly post workout and in the am) I maintain at about 3200 calories a day, so I will bump that down to 2500/2700 a day. I will keep my protein up to about 300+ grams a day and my fat intake will be fairly low also. Mainly the only fat I would take is 2 tablespoons of flax oil and 2 tablespoons of olive oil per day. Cardio 3 - 4 times a week. It will be mainly bike riding outside.
With cutting the carbs like this work without sacrificing too much muscle loss?
I haven't got it all worked out yet, I am just trying to get some input on the best way of doing this diet so that I can get it setup.
I think cutting out the carbs except for workout days is the way to go to burn fat, but will I sacrifice much muscle doing it this way and is the best way to lose fat? Yes, I read the cuttings stickys.
