Bump, 6 weeks until my holiday, would like to keep muscle but drop around 7-10lbs (bring body fat down to around 12%, currently around 14-15%) HIIT or LISS ? Or simply drop calories below required amount ?

Carb backload or a keto diet, and use Hiit. If you're a bodybuilder type trainer, use supersets and low rest periods. You need o make sure you're fully depleted if you decide to use carb back loading. If you don't train your back or legs, that will help. Add some light cardio in after training (not walking).

Thanks Maddison, was hoping you'd reply. Will give keto and HIIT a go.

Ignore the scales, you might gain some muscle. Intermittent fasting will help too. Don't do it too often though, twice a week in the final two weeks before you leave for holidays. Don't be tempted to try it too early though or it will likely backfire on you.

If you need any books, letme know. I have both of Kiefer's books (google)

Ive done 16/8 IF recently, and it went well, just wanted to mix it up and try something different that's why I asked on here. Just reading up on keto now, interesting way of doing things with high fat and low carbs.

Started riding a bike to work in March. I've always been lucky to have an fairly active metabolism, so I never really got "fat". That said, I had no idea what crap shape I was in. I've lost almost 40 pounds (I'm 3 pounds from my weight at 18 years old). I have a five mile ride to and from work, and getting a 30 minute cardio workout twice a day, five days (in a row) a week has been incredible. My energy level is off the charts. You really don't know how out of shape you are until you feel the difference.

If you go straight keto, ditch the dairy (cheese and milk), and make sure yiu carb up once a week after the first two weeks to reset your leptin levels.
