    Hypocaloric is Under eating or being in a deficit. Again, the size of the deficit has little to do with how much muscle is lost during a cut at the end point. My goals are performance based so carb cycling is probably not the best choice for me but maybe for you or others.

    I do know what Hypocaloric meant(was just speaking in Laymans terms)... But I def agree that Anabolics changes the argument(4-sure)... But say you raise your P-ratio(higher), carbs and fats lower at %'s... Besides additional cardio, HIIT training etc, isn't eating Hypocaloric really the only ways to cut up? Or are you just saying one will also lose strength while being Hypocaloric and cutting up(Natty)?...

    Sorry, thought you didn't know what it meant.

    The problem is p-ratio is mainly genetic. Diet and training will only marginally affect it. Yes eating less calories than you use is how you lose weight. Eating enough protein and training correctly helps make sure the muscle loss is kept to a minimum. Not necessarily saying you'll lose strength but you will lose some muscle mass to one degree or another. Depends on many things n
