6 week shortcut to shred

For the past two months i have been cutting weight so i can achieve 10% bodyfat and be somewhere around 175lbs when i leave for my euro-trip.  Getting to this low of  a BF percentage has been something ive tried to work at for the past few years. Not up until i actually started to take my nutrition and training seriously, has this actually started to come together. This week has been very good for strict eating for me, last night i prepped two days worth of ground chicken and pasta.  My new routine involves cardio in between sets and today will be shoulders calves and abs.  My new routine follows a 3 day split between body parts. which basically means i will be training each group twice a week in a different way every workout, also because the  program changes every week.  Since i am working with such a short time frame, technically 5 weeks, my meal plan will be changing every week.  I have chosen to go back with my coach from ExcelPT for this because 5 weeks isnt enough time to get shredded while guessing and trying to piece together my own plan.  In the past 3 months i have learned alot about what type of foods my body reacts well to, and which foods i need to avoid in this process to get maximum fat loss.  From seeing my other gym buddies go through bodybuilding competition preps, i know i will be doing alot of fasting cardio in the mornings, and my carbs will be slowly depleted each week and healthy fats will be utilized to maintain my muscle mass and so i dont go catabolic during this extreme cut.  My workout weight lifting routine will involve lots of light weight, high rep drop sets, so utilize fat burning on all muscle groups.
