when are you guys going to start your cut?

Every night before bed I cut calories. :)

I've already started my easing into the cutting phase. I was bulking from the end of August up until about a week ago, so I figured it was a good time to switch it up.

Right now I'm just carb cycling, doing around 75g on off days and 250ish on training days. I plan on running UD 2.0 in a few weeks though once my body gets used to the lowered carbs (coming off 300-400 per day and don't wanna jump right in).

I know it's super early, but my goal is to get really ripped by April or so, and if I get where I want, I'll go to a clean bulk going into the summer to fill out more.

I'm at 208 and probably about 10-12% BF right now, so I should only need a couple months to drop down to where I want.

I'm about the same. I start supplementing in a thermo from this list, Invalid Link Removed , and then cut calories and carbs and up cardio.
 
I started beginning of the month, gonna continue til prolly mid February. Then do pretty much a recomp diet and rock that. If I start getting to pudgy with that I'll do another little cut
 
I'm cutting now. I'm Using PX500 white and ALCCLA as the fat burner. No dropped my calories to 2,150 and am carb cycling. Cardio 4-5 times per week. Ab work 2-3 times per week.
 
Yeah I will start to clean up my diet around end of feb, slowly move in to strict cut diet by end of march then keep my weight training the same just add cardio. I mainly swim, stair master and jump rope
 
April 1 is my official start date. I cut pretty fast as well. So by May I should be pool/lake physique ready!! We swim in May here in Arizona :head:

But started adding a couple days of light cardio just this past week to get some endurance built in, so come cut time I can hit some HIIT without being completely winded. Still growing time though.

Maybe you can give the synthermo a go ;)
 
I started mine at the first of year. It's been a while since I really been leaned out. I wanted to make sure I do it this year. I been upping the cardio and trying to eat clean. I want to do a nice slow cut and by March I should be coming close to goal.
 
End of march early april. shoot is in july so i have a little time but the beach is calling my name haha
 
Been cutting for months to end on Memorial Day.

Cutting in the summer is not a good idea for me. I came across an old paper that showed that the body breaks down muscle to deal with the heat so I am no longer running energy deficits when it's hot out and I am not feeling as weak as I used to in summer.

Congrats! That slow recomp is what I'm about now, but those were about the same months I did when I went bulk/cut.
 
Starting now! I'm away on holiday in May!
 
I'm starting my cut now. I'd like to shed 15 pounds by June first.

Cutting seems to be slower and more difficult as I age.
