Cutting for the summer doesn't have to be difficult 🧵

it's mostly mental really
it all begins with the diet
caloric deficit - typically begin with 300-500cals then increase every few weeks. Use this to calculate maintenance calories

staying hydrated
not just water but your body needs electrolytes after sweating and punishing your muscles in the gym or whatever form of training you do

it is essential to keep sodium, magnesium, potassium, and calcium at proper levels

your body is mostly water, take care of it.

lastly, the bane of all cuts
consistency and discipline

if you don't have these two, you are fucked

keep a journal and hold yourself accountable
Even better if you have a buddy to go with so both of you can keep yourselves accountable

MY #1 FUCKING RULE 
TRACK.YOUR.PROGRESS

not only will you feel more motivated to keep going by the new numbers
it's highly beneficial for your dopamine receptors to be stimulated by something natural

that's all for me this afternoon, we go gym
logging on for the nightshift

your protein intake needs to be high to maintain muscle hypertrophy
typically .8-1g of protein per pound (lb) of bodyweight will allow you to maintain a good amount if not all muscle from an intensive cut
