I started a reverse diet about four months ago. I can definitely tell a difference in my strength. I am not always consistent in hitting calorie and carb macros, but I am consistent with protein and fat. I am 47 years old, weigh 125 pounds, and consistently hit 170+ grams of protein. I would like to do a cut, but I’m not sure when it's appropriate. I try to get between 2000 and 2200 calories a day. When should I consider doing a cut?
Would reverse dieting help me continue to progress in bringing my body fat down to 10% if I have been eating 2225 calories (280g protein, 175g carbs, 45g fat) and hit a wall at 203lbs (13% BF)? I resistance train 4-5 times per week, walk 45-60 minutes every day, and run 5-8km randomly. Do I need to change my training regimen?
When doing a reverse diet, how much weight fluctuation per week is normal to ensure I am not gaining too much body fat? Additionally, if I was eating 2,800-3,000 calories per day during my last triathlon training block (10-15 hours/week of swim/bike/run volume + 5 hours/week of lifting volume), how many calories per day should I start with now that my training volume is less (4 hours/week of lifting volume + 3-4 hours/week of swim/bike/run volume), and my goal is to build muscle while minimizing fat gain?
