      6 week cutting phase, 17% to 10% practical?

      17% to 10% in 6 weeks?

      Generally speaking I would assert that a more practical time frame for a cut like that would be 3-4 months. But ... 6 weeks is enough time to get down into the lower teens.

      never really get time to sit and eat a good meal, so i just sorta keep on grazing through out the day. Still manage to get up to 200 grams of protein and around 80-120 grams of carbs (depending on the day)

      Granted you don't lose any muscle, you'd need to cut to 154,5lbs to be at 10%. That's 14,5lbs to lose.

      2,4~lbs/week
      8400kcal deficit/week
      1200kcal deficit/day

      Imo that's too high of a deficit, I suggest you make it 8-10 weeks.

      8 weeks at 906kcal deficit/day
      9 weeks at 805kcal deficit/day
      10 weeks at 725kcal deficit/day

      And I'm sorry but I'll not estimate your calories or how many calories you spend each day. You gave us too much info for what you want to know, but not the necessary ones, we'd only need your diet's macros, and your calories spent each day.

      kk, hmmm i don't really know how many calories i spend everyday... apparently its around 3,000 on average daily. But i've tried cutting with that high of a calorie count (and proper diet) and it resulted in gaining wieght... so far, this calorie count (around 2000+) has been working (perhaps i hav a lower metabolism?)

      A lot of pointless (proven to be pointless in studies) supplements...

      sigh* i know about that, but a buddy dropped it off so why not?
      plus a lot of the pro's use them for a reason... whether or not its because they actually work or if they're being sponsored to do so is up for question...
