A protein diet when trying to cut is not a good idea.

As usual, you have no idea what you're talking about. I mean the bolded text is so stupid and contradictory to reality, I couldn't help but actually laugh, seeing as how cutting has EVERYTHING to do with losing muscle. That's why there's a difference between losing weight, and losing fat. Most people lose fat and muscle when they cut, hence the increased weight loss. Those who know what they're doing lose 1-2 pounds a week, and it's consisting of pure body fat. It's extremely difficult [b]NOt losing muscle while cutting, because you're going below your maintenance and have to supplement your muscles with protein.

You mentioned Ketosis, so then I assume you understand Ketogenic diets. These diets support what I'm saying, while messing with your carbs.
Cutting should not be 50-30-20, it should be 60-30-10, and that's not to start.
This is going on the assumption that he won't be lifting, but just diet and cardio.

I've never heard of 60-30-10, so I assume you're just making shit up. Furthermore, I assume you mean 60% carbs and not protein, which is still not smart at ALL if he wants to cut. Finally, cardio doesn't have much of a point if you're already cutting. Ideally if you're cutting, you best supplement that with weight training.
