.............take in when cutting up. For the first time I'm starting to cut calories and get more cut before my next cycle and am not sure how many calories I should take in. I dn't have to lose that much, maybe around 5%bf.
Depends on your metabolism. I diet at 4000 calories a day only cutting them gradually to about 3500 by the end of the diet. You just have to know your body and have a good understanding of nutrition to dial it in.
