3 pounds a week over the next 7 weeks would put me at the wieght class i want to be...2 pounds would put me at the one i dont want to be...lol it was just a question for those that have droped 3 pounds over 6 weeks or so ...just htier experience,,,,
I have 2 weeks before my NAGA Worlds competition in the Expert division and I have to cut about 10 lbs. If you have day before weigh ins for your competition maybe lose some weight and then cut the rest, regain your strength that night and be ready the next day. Good Luck.
only thing with cutting so much weight is your anabolic fitness levels are different to guys who have been at that weight for much longer time because their anabolic fitness will be at a higher level. Plus their muscle strength will be greater. Muscle mass maybe not though. Hope it helps
you have to make the distinction between loosing fat and cutting weight. Weight cutting is about sheading water and emptying your digestive system. The weight cutting starts 2 to 3 days out beyond that your just getting in shape.
