Do you think I'm being wise with my weight loss plan? I did a cut from December to the middle of April and spent the summer in and out of maintenance, sometimes a little bit above and sometimes a little bit below my target weight. I am about 7 pounds away from my absolute goal, so I am doing a four-week more aggressive cut, even though I’ve been a little bit in and out of cuts all summer. My previous cuts have all been very gentle and gradual. I ended my big cut at 141 pounds and have maintained a weight of around 145 pounds all summer.
Should I continue to reverse my calories, or should I start a cut? If I should start a cut, then should I do a 2-week cut followed by 1 week maintenance, or a 3-week cut followed by 1 week maintenance?
What would my recommended calorie intake be if I want to get down to 165-170 pounds, considering I am a 46-year-old male, 5 foot 6, weigh around 180, and have strength trained for the last 15 years while working out 4-5 days a week with weights and incorporating jiu jitsu once a week?
