You offered no opinion on the topic, and only posted to say that you disagree with others. Ergo, troll.

Im sure the 100 day plan is far superior however if I have to do another 100 days in Afghanistan I wouldn't be cutting now.
My squat must be high, my form is fine on both, iv tried and failed twice in the last 2 weeks at 160kg dead
, my 150kg squat wasn't as deep as id liked but my 140kg was.My calorie intake will be quite high because I will be training around 10 times a week, but will still be a lot less than when I was bulking.
For my weights I will be staying at the top end of hypertrophy reps with reduced rest. I will still have one heavy chest and leg session per week too.
Moans about others being uneducated, can't spell or use punctuation.
Seems legit!
To have "my squat must be high" and "my form is fine" in the same sentence is a little concerning. I rarely consider my form to be good enough and I coach other people how to lift. Set a higher standard for yourself. If you're really honest, was that 140kg squat as deep as you could go?My squat must be high, my form is fine on both, iv tried and failed twice in the last 2 weeks at 160kg dead

It sounds like you haven't actually counted your calories, change this. Understand that there really aren't any short cuts here, and smashing yourself with cardio doesn't make up for not putting the time into the boring parts of sorting out your diet.
Why are are you doing high ish reps with short rests? That sounds a lot like a circuit, which is just more cardio. You can see where I'm going with this...
Ice, I get that you know what you are talking about.
However in the past my best weightloss has come when I am involving some level of cardio combined with eating correctly.
I do understand fully what you are saying however and you will regularly find me telling people that a 6-pack is made in the kitchen not the gym.
However, what I think what you need to realise is that most people don't understand what you understand and therefore telling them that no cardio is required is not the right way to go about things. I mean technically you are right BUT people are not strict enough with themselves and lack the discipline required to lose fat by diet alone.
I personally am guilty of this, I can lose weight with diet only and have proven this to myself, however I found I had better results when I bought at least some level of cardio into my regime. I also found with cardio involved for some reason I was stronger mentally and able to resist temptation when it came to eating crap.
At present I have a lower back injury which is preventing me from doing much cardio (going to try swimming this week) and the results speak for themselves, I have gained weight (and lots of strength due to excess food too
)You seem to think getting spanked by him would be a bad thing...?
Who's first? and with my belt or palm?
Doesn't weight training involve intensely stimulating the cardiovascular system anyway?
If I've done a squat/deadlift etc workout then I feel like I've had a great cardio workout aswell as resistance workout. Used to do loads of 7/8k runs, I do these only very occasionally nowadays, but I've found the resistance training keeps me cardiovascularly fit enough to have no problem with an 8k+ run when ever I feel like it. May not run for weeks but when I do I find I haven't lost any cardio fitness.
Stripping body fat is IMO entirely diet related, it's about tracking cals and learning how much food you need to gain/lose, it can be a fine line and 2-300 cals either way can make all the difference. Once you've tracked and monitored for a few months you'll have a great feel for what your body needs and you'll pretty much be able to manipulate your weight with much less obsessive weighing of food portions etc. Definitely worth a few months of diligance though because you'll learn a hell of a lot in that time about your calorie/energy requirements.
