Cut Fat Fast: The Only Cutting Guide You Need

Why You Need This Checklist

What if losing fat didn't require weighing every grain of rice, counting ketchup calories, or downloading yet another tracking app? Most people assume cutting has to be complicated — and that assumption is exactly what keeps them spinning their wheels for months without results.

Here's the painful truth: you've probably tried a calorie calculator, eaten exactly what it told you, and still didn't lose a pound. You blamed your metabolism. You wondered if something was broken. Nothing was broken. The system you were using was just incomplete. Generic maintenance calculators don't know your body, your fidget level, your NEAT, or your actual activity. They guess. And when their guess is wrong, you pay the price with frustration and stalled progress.

Now imagine waking up every morning with total clarity. You step on the scale, you check one number against your median, and you instantly know whether today is a free day or a focused day. No apps. No food scales. No anxiety. Just a simple feedback loop that tells your body exactly what to do next. That's the system Greg Doucette — IFBB Pro coach, author, and one of YouTube's most no-nonsense fitness educators — breaks down in Cutting 101. His method is used by real people losing real fat, one sustainable pound per week, without starving and without losing muscle.

Greg's approach is built on principles that actually hold up: track your median morning weight instead of daily fluctuations, eat low calorie-dense foods that keep you full, stock your kitchen with the right things, time your protein intake smartly, and use cardio as a calorie-burning tool — not an afterthought. These aren't bro-science tips. They're practical, repeatable actions that compound over weeks into a body you're proud of.

This PDF checklist distills every actionable step from Greg's Cutting 101 video into a clean, printable guide you can start using today. Each step is specific, sequenced, and grounded in exactly what Greg and Sam Sulik cover in the video — from setting your starting calorie target to choosing the right zone 2 cardio. Whether you're just starting your cut or you've been stuck at the same weight for weeks, this checklist gives you the exact moves to make. Download it, print it, and start checking boxes.
