Most people say they want to get lean and strong… but end up stuck in the middle.

They’re eating too much to lose fat, but not enough to build muscle — working hard, showing up, but not really changing.

In this episode, we break down what a cut actually is (and what it’s not), when to start one, how long it should last, and the biggest mistakes that ruin progress. We’ll also share how to transition out of a cut the right way — without rebounding or losing everything you worked for.

We also share our own experiences with cutting, what we’d do differently, and how to use these phases strategically throughout the year — so you can stop spinning your wheels and actually see your body change.

If you’re not sure which phase you should be in — or you want structure, accountability, and support — come hang with us inside our free Skool community.

We’ve got trainings, live calls, tools, and over a thousand members all working toward sustainable fitness and lifestyle results.
