I would always keep my diet the same to maintain my gains. But certain compounds or chems you can really eat a lot and not gain much fat. So does your blast look like ?

For me it depends on alot of things. My daily activity lvl, am I on gh, am I going to keep my training at the same consistent lvl.

When I drop down to a cruise I'll slowly ramp down the proteins to 1 or 1.2 gm per lb ( I usually keep it around 1.5 to 2 gm per lb on cycle due to the increased protein synthesis gear provides). Carbs I change depending on activity lvl through out the day, what the mirror and my appetite shows me. I don't really measure out food anymore.

For me its important to maintain the 5 to 6 meals a day just to keep my body used to it....even if I cut the amount of food being eaten.

I'm on gh so I can get away with some extra calories and not really get sloppy.

I do a bulk blast then start carb cycling on my cruise so I can slowly taper down my carbs over the span of 4-5 months then go into my next blast which will be a cut and I already have my carbs where I want them.
