I feel pretty comfortable with how big I have gotten, but now I want to get cut and tone (most notably in the ab region) while keeping as much solid muscle as possible.
Obviously running/cardio helps that, but what kind of weight lifting program should I follow now that I want to get CUT instead of build lots of muscle? Should I do more ab related workouts if I really want to bring those out? I think having really nice abs shows how "cut" someone is, that is probably a stupid way to say it but in my eyes that's what I think of right away.
How should I eat, should I avoid taking whey protein now or avoid eating heavier foods even when I'm really hungry? I'm sure these questions sound stupid, but I'm trying my best and I (and my girl) would appreciate any help anyone can give!
Thanks,
Eric

i have read this and my advice is to keep with the whey and you should not go without eating just remember when you get hungry dont go for the big mac eat healthy and avoid eating fat foods as much as possible what i would do is eat healthy every day and designate one day a week to eat whatever you want and also try to avoid anything with high fructose corn syrup because once you put that in your body its almost impossible to get out anything else just ask Adam.
