In my experience I have to gain weight to gain strength. How can I keep strength and cut 20 lbs? Is it possible with the right regimen and diet?
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I lost 15 pounds of fat while also setting personal bests in all of my lifts. I was stronger than I'd ever been. Granted, my diet was super strict; I lived and breathed my macros for a year straight. It all depends on how bad you want it.
I used intermittent fasting and reverse pyramid training via Martin Berkhan (leangains.com). Best lifting/diet advice I've ever found, and I've been researching lifting for over 15 years. Different things work for different people, though.
PM me if you want specifics.

When you loose weight, your gonna have a decrease in strength. So, once you "cut" down to whatever size you want, your gonna have to work your way back up to that strength with your new body weight. Depending on how much you loose and other variables things could go either way. Everybody is different, only way you will know is by trial and error until you get more experience and find what works for you.

I think you need to clarify that you want to gain strength and cut FAT, not weight in general. Like Krueg said, highly unlikely you are going to gain strength without maintaining or adding muscle weight.
In that case, yes it's possible but only with very clean eating and plenty of protein. Need to make sure you take in some good carbs too, especially after a workout.

As per my point of view fresh drinks and low diet food is a must, and it needs to digest at time. In order to digest properly drink protein shake and make sure to take in some carbs too.

You can gain strength on a cut... If you had been inactive.JustinBustin said:
You can maintain most of your strength on a cut, if you take your time and drop weight. Drop 1-3 lbs a week, by adding cardio, and adjusting diet... You can keep most of your strength.
If you lost a bunch of water or lose weight too fast, you won't feel as powerful.

If you are a noob, yes.
You shouldn't really try to lose weight per se but recomp.
If you are a noob all you need to do is get on a 5x5 and stay at maintainance, you will increase muscle mass and reduce fat for about the first 3 months.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
