Here is what I am doing:
I worked real hard trying to gain some good weight, eating about 2800-3000 calories and worked hard as I could.
my cholesterol sucked and I found my T was really low. I decided to hold off on eating that much food and try and get things under control.
So I started a "cut" and ate just enough to maintain weight for a week.
then went:
protein 1gram per body weight, fat 20%, rest = carbs.
Body weight x 15 = calories
next week body weight x 14 etc.
Once you get into 11-12 area stop and work out harder add stuff to burn calories vs dropping more calores.
Think RECOVERY/RETENTION.
Here is an article on that cut.
I added 10lbs to my bench 1RM during this time.
Now the problem I ran into was just enough work to do away with all of those carbs.
So like you I looked into lowering carbs down as I didnt feel I was using 250g of carbs.
Currently I keep my carbs pretty low and I only eat them after I work out. thats really when your body wants them anyhow to refill those muscles with energy.
This has gotten the ball moving on bf loss without me feeling that much weaker (or no weaker at all)
Just make sure your workouts a tough, up the weights and push like hell. Think of it like you are making room for those carbs besides around your belly.
In the morning I eat 4 eggs and a protein shake, after a workout I will eat maybe some protein oatmeal, some trail mix (good fats), an energy bar etc, nothing pure sugar/cake/candy junk, in an hour or so ill eat some chicken.
For dinner some chicken or some salmon, I do my best to not spike insulin before bed if I can.
I also work out on weekends and only take wed off. Those new workout days are typically just stuff like chin ups, hang cleans, or just speed runs on stuff with super sets, just trying to burn calories and work on some stuff. I feel like BCAA help a ton during this time as there isnt alot of rest time for recovery.
If you can tailor your carbs to your workouts and get the necessary amounts down i think you will have the best success. Keto is great for this but i found I really got flipped on my head strength wise and I didnt want to significantly lower my workload.
