Need some assistance with cutting cycle

[Aizen Sosuke]

By September I will start a cutting cycle or lean cycle whatever they call it now days. I would like to wait till November but the npp expires then and I don't want to risk it. It will be 8 weeks long, test prop 150mg/eod and npp 100mg/eod with exemestane at 12mg/eod and hcg at 500iu/week. PCT will be 6 weeks of clomid and nolvadex. I tried cutting before on my first cycle of test e while eating at tdee and I ended up putting about 5lbs of lean mass while body fat remained the same. My goal for this cycle would be to bring body fat down to 10%. BTW here are my current stats
5'9"
182lbs
12% bf
26yo
1 cycle

If I end up with 5lbs again I wouldn't mind as long as I stay under 190lbs but I really want to bring my bodyfat down. What's the recomendation on the amount of calories under maintenance for this purpose while on cycle?

What was your cardio like on your previous cutting cycle?

4 days a week 30min after lifting. Unfortunatly I do not have the time to go twice to the gym for empty stomach cardio.

imo cutting is 75% diet! get ur diet in check! cutting is one of the hardest things to achieve due to the discipline involved diet wise!

I would try keeping your cals at maintenance and increasing cardio, see how that works for you while on cycle.

Increase duration of current sessions or frequency? Or both?
Thanks
