In the begining this can be done, however gains will be limited the leaner you get.

you have to be happy with your strength and muscle size, beacause you have to lower you calories...to cut.

Any body builder will tell you that, in order to reach your ultimate goal you must over shoot. In other words if you want to get cut and add 10lbs of muscle you must aim for 15 as you will inevativaly lose muscle on your cutting phase. It is a fundermental fact that you can not cut while gainig muscle. muscle uses 50 cal/lb/ day at rest so when you drop your calories to start cutting your body will shed excess muscle for survival.
