do you change theway u lift when cutting

Not totally the same. I mix things up a lot more and do isolation exercises more than usual. Ill also slow the reps down with lighter weight. Generally I move more away from the power exercises and focus more on shaping. I also up the time by 15-20 minutes and keep the cardio pretty much the same and focus a lot on exactly what I eat.

I switched to a 2-way split circuit routine when i started to cut/define about 4 weeks ago...and cranked my cardio to 3x per week 45-75 min plus 20 min 2x per week after lifting.

Workouts

I use low-volume workouts with good success. If you do moderate-high volume, I would lower the volume when cutting.

i keep my reps from 8-12 and add drops sets....i also do 25 minutes of cardio everyday......it worked for me....i went from 242 to 217.....although i did lose a little strength.....i dont look like a fat baf of snacks anymore.....plus a winnie eq stack doesnt hurt either.....
