I'm just curious if anyone has any clue how long a cut can go on for until I should do maintenance for a bit. My understanding is that if you let the cut last to long it gets fairly useless due to your body reducing your metabolism. I have about 15-18% of BF that I plan on dropping before I begin a bulking phase and was just curious if I should throw in a week or two of maitenance to prevent the slow down on my metabolism?
Thanks!
Thanks!

It can't hurt, but I don't think there's really any arbitrary limit. Some people here (myself included) have spent more than a year straight in a deficit. Taking a maintenance week every 8-12 weeks probably isn't a bad idea though.0
