Aggressive Cut Diet: Safe Weight Loss Strategy or Fitness Fad?

November 28, 2025

Welcome back to Nacho Fitness Coach—the home of fitness-ish advice, unapologetic honesty, and zero six-pack abs. We’re not influencers with perfect morning routines. We’re regular humans with opinions, microphones, and apparently a lot to say about germs and aggressive calorie cuts.

Stuff We Don’t Give a Sh*t About: Germs

This week’s chaotic warm-up topic: germs—and our complete lack of fear around them.

Handwashing? Optional.
Five-second rule? Absolutely.
Kids touching questionable things in public restrooms? Okay… that’s where we draw the line.

From farm-life immune systems to New York City shoe trauma (never look under a white rug again—trust us), this episode explores how wildly different everyone’s cleanliness thresholds are.

Whether you’re a “sanitize your hands between breaths” person or someone who will eat a sandwich you dropped on concrete because “sun kills germs,” you’re welcome here.


TikTok’s Latest Obsession: The “Aggressive Cut”

Now let’s get into the meat of today’s episode—because TikTok won’t stop screaming about aggressive cuts.

If you’ve somehow missed the trend:


An “aggressive cut” is basically a dramatic calorie deficit designed to create fast weight-loss results. People love it because:

  • You see changes quickly
  • You’re less likely to quit early
  • It feels like progress on steroids (without the steroids)


One viral creator breaks it down like this:

  • Find your maintenance calories using a TDEE calculator
  • Subtract 800 calories for 3 months
  • Eat 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight
  • Get 12k–15k steps a day
  • Lift 3–5 days per week, 6–10 reps per set
  • Train until you’re 1–2 reps shy of failure


Sounds simple… but is it smart? Sustainable? Safe?
Well, that’s what we unpack—realistically, hilariously, and with zero diet-culture nonsense.


The Bottom Line

If you’ve ever wondered:

  • “Should I try an aggressive cut?”
  • “Why does TikTok think starving is a personality trait?”
  • “Am I the only mom who doesn’t force handwashing before snacks?”


This episode is for you.

It’s equal parts science, sass, and “wait… did we really say that on a microphone?
