Foundations of Non-ketogenic Cutting diet

[Yo Daddy]

I was asked to repost this question on a new thread... could someone walk me through the basics (I'm sure there are several methods on this issue) on how to design a non-ketogenic cutting diet?

Btw, I am 5'5' 1/2, 258 lbs, 22%bf.

How could there be such a thing?Fats-free fatty acids-ketones...This is the metabolic pathway for using fats as energy.Regarding the other thread,aerobics are desirable on a keto diet,in fact this is when they are most effective.You are more likely to burn muscle after your glycogen stores run out on a "normal" diet.Even first thing on an empty stomach.Here's something you may find interesting...

A non-ketogenic diet would be designed like a ketogenic diet, but with variable ratios.

You take your BMR , weight x 12 , shave 5-10% and plug that into your ratios. For example, 40%protein/40%fat/20% carbs

Would I shoot for 45 mins of low intensity cardio 4-5 times/week with any specific weight training remine?

As long as you keep a calorie deficit you should cut fat anyways thats the basic principle, take in less than you put out. Find your BMR then add in cardio and lifting cals burned and then subtract either 600 or 1200 from that number to get how much you should eat a day. 1200 for 2 lbs a week and 600 for 1lb a week, yes i rounded the calories.

dont be so quick to jump on 45 sessions right away or even 4-5 sessions a week. train smart before you train hard start with 30mintues 3 times a week if you havent been doing no cardiovascular work, if you have start with 30 mintues 4 times a week, then 5 times a week. you reach a plateau, then bump it to 35 and so on. progressively increase the length and frequency, when you hit a plateau.
