I am at about 89.9kg as of this moment, with aprox bodyfat of 17%, I would like to get down to 10%, then maintain it for awhile and do a slow..slow bulk. My issue is, I would like to lose around 4/5 kg a month, and I am wondering if this too fast? I have a good amount of muscle but people always seem to overexgerate muscle loss, so I was wondering if 1,500/1600 calories is enough to maintain my muscle, I would focus mainly on fats/proteins, not really keto, but I just wouldn't be relying on carbs in a way.
Stats -
Age : 23
Weight - 89.9kg
BF - 17%
Gender - Male
Height - 6ft
I figure that I could bump up my calories on my gym days, because I am only really excessivly active on lift days.
Would 1500-1600 calories be a safe bet to get down to 85, then pump up my calories, to something like 1,900 and slowly get down to 80 kg, as I would estimate that at around 80kg I would be 10%, I might be wrong so someone is free to correct me there ^^!
I checked the fourms prior, and noticed alot of varying opinions on calories, some people were screaming that 1,600 is a recipe for catabolism of muscle, others were saying its not a big deal and doesn't really affect you that much, I would be geting around 220g of protein a day, and my lift days are usually heavy compounds when possible.
ANY ADVICE IS WELCOME, be it postive or negative, just trying to learn.
