Has anyone had to cut weight for competition or even fitness goals?
What exercises do you primarily focus on when cutting? What exercises would you use for cutting the weight, and what exercises would you use to minimize loss of power output, and energy at your new weight?
For example, if you were accustomed to a weight lifting routine but wanted to lose 10-15lbs how would you alter your workouts in order to lose the weight but maintain most of that muscular strength/endurance you've developed?
My thought would be to focus on running, calisthenics and plyometrics. However, I would appreciate some feedback if anyone has or is experiencing a weight cut at the moment.
I know this is not the nutrition/supplement discussion but if someone had any supplements they take or foods they eat to accomplish their goals, that information would be beneficial.
What would you do?
