Hey Mike, thanks for doing this! Quick question for you regarding cutting... From July-December I bulked on the BLS program, gained about 16 pounds in that time (ps, thanks for a great/effective program) and I’m getting close to 15% BF, so I began a cut last week. I’m quite ectomorphic, so after consuming about 2650 calories per day last week (was at about 3750 per day when bulking), using your pre-workout product Forge, and doing three HIIT sessions I lost 4 pounds, going from 198 to 194. In terms of my macros I’m pretty well dialed in, about 1.2g protein per pound, 1.5g carbs per pound, and .3g fat per pound. However after doing my chest workout this morning I lost 4 or 5 reps in total from last week across 9 working sets. My question to you then is if you would expect losing so many reps after one week to be normal, considering I’m more of an ecto/hardgainer?
