    Quick question on transition from bulking to cutting

    Just wondering how you guys handled your carb intake when transitioning from a bulking phase to a cutting phase. Do you gradually taper down your carbs, or cut them all at once? I would assume that since the body strives to acheive homeostasis, it would be better to gradually cut them down, but just wanted to get some opinions on it.

    Yes, lower them slowly to minimize muscle loss.
