High reps for fat loss. Focus on compound movements like squat, deadlift, bench. Those burn the most calories out of all the exercises. Example: day1: shoulders day 2: legs. day3: off. day4:back and bis. day 5:chest and tris. day 6
ff
There's an example routine. Make sure to incorporate compound movements like squats for leg day. Deadlifts for back and bi day. Bench for chest day. Do as much cardio as possible if your cutting.

1500?!?!?! I just did a basic calculation based off your weight and activity level you posted and your maintenance is in the 2700 range. Figure you actual TDEE and subtract 500 cals from that. Then get your macros in line. Stick with that for a bit and see how your body reacts. Continue to tweak your diet from there.
Tons of cardio is also not the end all and be all of cutting success. Cutting is 80% diet and the rest training. I also see no reason not to lift heavy. More lean body mass means more cals burned at rest. Your goal is to eventually do a cycle to put on size, yes? So why not focus on a cutting diet, lift heavy, and let the body fat drop off while still maintaining the lean body mass you have? If you end up doing the super low cals and massive cardio, you'll burn fat, but also plenty of muscle along with it.

fucking bingo. exactly what i told him in the first post i sent and the pm i sent him (that includes the formula needed) to figure out tdee/bmr and macro nutrient requirements. great advice! great post! repped!
The whole high rep-low weight, massive cardio, super low cal advice just makes me think of all the girlie cardio bunnies that don't want to get big muscles. Just trying to steer this guy away from cardio bunny mentality. OP, go lift something heavy!!!

hell yes! besides that when i'm in a caloric deficit lifting heavy with high intensity and low volume is the #1 technique for maintaining strength and muscle imho and from my own personal experience.
