Oh, and as for your routine.

While you will obviously lose strength during a cutting routine, you want to maintain as much as possible as not to negate the gains you made while bulking.

I would reduce the amount of time you spend in the gym, but stick with a 3 day split hitting each body part at least one day a week.

For example.

Day 1 Chest/back

Day 2 Cardio / no weight training

Day 3 Legs

Day 4 Rest

Day 5 Triceps / Biceps

Day 6 Cardio / abs

Day 7 Rest

Repeat.

Again, keep in mind this primer is dependent on your goals. For example, some people just want to be ultra lean, while others don't mind being at 10-11% with a lot more muscle mass.

The leaner you get, the more dedication it takes to maintain muscle mass. The amount of work you have to put it on also depends on your body type and genetics.
