    Geez, I think I’m the shortest one here 😂.

    Female, 5’1”, 157 lbs, I hit the weights 3x a week, Spin class 2x and then the remaining days I do calisthenics/cardio. Currently cutting at 1700 cals which seems to be working at the moment. I was recomping for a long time and decided it was time to change it up.

    I guess I must be a drastic cutter. I'm 6'-2", age 50, 200 lbs and cut best at 1600 calories per day. I only workout two days per week though and sit at a desk all day. Admittedly, I probably have too many cheat days but found that by shooting for 1600 calories (and not always hitting it) I can lose weight steadily. My strength did take a nosedive on my last cut. I'm super busy and barely get my two workouts in per week and don't get enough sleep.
