I don't really do the bulk and cut thing as I fancy staying lean all year…although during the summer I tend to reduce my macros to around 1800 per day. 60% carbs, 30% protein, 10% fats. That's just what works for me though so I'm not claiming to be an expert but I do have my conditioning on point imo.

Individual situation OP

I ate roughly 1000cal below my calculated TDEE per day for 3 months and cut nearly 20kg of fat - dropped 1kg muscle mass over that time - but had 200mg test per week and 8 weeks of 50mg per day anavar to help

Plug your numbers into here fella

My TDEE currently is roughly 2900cal per day - I was down around 1800-2000 with protein consistently at 250g or above last cut at my lowest TDEE

If you're not using drugs, I'd start by moving around more then eating 500cal a day below maintenance. If drug assisted, I held onto all but 1kg of muscle mass over the course of 12 weeks by eating 1000cal a day below TDEE (which I adjusted every week as my body changed)

It really comes down to how big you are and how fat you are.

I like to use a very basic equation to start with of 25 calories per kg of body weight. So if you're 100 kgs and want to weigh 90 kg's, I would start by giving you the calories of a 95 kgs person and then see how you progress after 2-3 weeks before making another adjustment

To get ripped, I aim for around 2,000 calories a day, focusing on high protein and low carbs. It really depends on your body type and activity level, so you might need to adjust. For a cheat meal, contact burger king for their nutritional info to keep track of your intake even when indulging. Staying consistent with your diet and workout plan is key. What calorie range works best for you guys?
