The studies I've read claim lifting weight using greater than 65% of your one rep max will help preserve muscle while cutting. Intermittent fasting study (small sample size) indicates IF may allow...
When I was 250, I was losing on average 1.5lb/week averaging 2000-2200 calories per day. The site I went to the most is www.calorieking.com. Honestly, all the information you need is on the...
Eating clean is irrelevant regarding fat gain. Any calories not used by the body will be stored as fat, whether they be steel cut oats or big macs. The body can only build so much muscle at a time...
If this is only your second week, don't stress it. A lot of crazy stuff happens the first few weeks while your body adjusts. After beginning a cut, I tend to lose 5-6 pounds the first week and...

To lose fat, all that's needed is a calorie deficit. In other words, focus on your diet. That's what preventing you from losing weight, not how good your workout routine is.
I used to drink a 2 liter of diet coke along with a few 12 oz cans a day. I substituted the 2 liter for a 2 liter of raspberry seltzer water. I'm enjoying the seltzer just as much.
