Right. Plus the metabolism with 4-6 meals a day will speed up. Small meals anyways. I love the cardio during my cutting phase. Even though i am starting to cut early this year. Usually i start cutting around april to be ready for the end of june. I started the beggining of january and will be cutting untill the beggining or end of june depending on how i feel. This way i got plenty of time, and or i can bulk for 2 months if i loose to much. I loose alot and fast because i aim for 3500 calories a day, and then eat small meals. win win.
