hey /fit/, I've been consistently working out (about 5-6 times a week) for two months now, and I've seen significant strength gains and a little mass, less than I would like. I'm a little bit fat, 5'10" and 159 lb. as of this morning. A good friend of mine, an MMA fighter, told me that if I wanted to cut, a good way to do it would be to introduce more cardio and instead of 3 reps of 8-12 heavy, do 4 reps of 25 on each exercise. I did it for my leg & shoulder and my back & bicep days, but yesterday on my chest and triceps I absolutely could not do it and went to my regular heavy workout. Aside from diet and cardio, is this legitimate? Will doing 100 squats (fucking brutal) at light weight really help me cut in any way that is worth the possible loss in gains?

you gonna give /fit/ advice or are you gonna shitpost?
Why are you trying to cut 2 months in? How old are you first off? You seem like a 16 year old and your stats back that up.
Fill out your frame, build strength and mass. Once you've done that cut all you want. All cutting is calories in vs calories burned.

SS + GOMAD + stop believing in fairy tales. You look like an aspiring pedophile.

SS + GOMAD is the most efficient way of losing weight. SS makes you squat a lot, and since squatting activates your abs you slowly burn stomach fat.
GOMAD are all empty calories, making you lose weight without feeling hungry. Good luck.

Don't cut yet. Build some more mass for another couple of months first.
When you do decide to cut, do the opposite of what your friend said. You're going to want to lift heavy 4 times a week with cardio (I recommend HIIT for fat burning) on the in between days. You lift heavy in order to minimize the amount of muscle you'll lose on a calorie deficit. Go for 2 to 3 sets with 8 to 12 reps.
bumping for mutual interest, im 6'2 and 210 but we seem to have a similar bodytype
Damn OP I feel bad for you. Not only are you completely clueless, you also look like the most unremarkable dude ever.
I bet you're boring af.
Anyway, on a cut I would suggest sticking to your normal lifting routine. Helps with not losing as much muscle as you would if you did a faggy cardio bunny program.
Although in your case, I would tend to suggest you get some muscle first, before even thinking about cutting.
