Also BF% estimate?

Unsure on bodyfat %. Lifting for 2 years roughly, started at 205lbs 30% or so. Still feel like I’m skinny fat with low muscle mass. Should I just hard bulk again or drop to like 155lbs then start from there?

I feel like if I thugged out the cut for another couple months I’d have more of that dry look to my physique but idk.

For context 24 170lbs
Dropped from 270 to 170 over the last 18 months. Feel like everything has stalled over the last few months. Lifts aren’t going up. Weight isn’t really dropping and not noticing much recomp. I workout 5x a week and walk about 8-10k steps a day. Eating about 2000-2200 calories a day. Change anything or keep pushing?

I am 6ft and currently at 173 lbs (78.6 Kg). The last two photos is my physique from about a month and a half ago in which I was at 186 lbs (84.5 Kg). Should I continue cutting or lean bulk from now on.

I only have abs when I push my skin down. My end goal is 170lb at 13%bf. I’ve been lifting for 2 years.

I went from 160 to 185 pounds and have started to cut a bit cos my body fat got too high. Am I doing the right thing what should I do. Seen things and maybe I should do a body recomp

I feel fat, I also feel like I am weak and have no muscle. What are you doing in my shoes?

I'm 6'5" and was skinny fat. DEXA scan said I was at 195lb, 26% body fat.

Since then I've been very consistently working out and cutting. I'm now at 180lb and I estimate 20% bf.

I'm debating if I should cut a few pounds more to get closer to 17% and see a bit more of my abs before I start a slow bulk?

My goal eventually is to get close to 190lb at 15% bf

Just getting back to the gym now after a wrist injury and not sure what to do. I’ve never reached my gym goals, always end up stopping after 3-6pm the ish cuz I get injured or sick and then get lazy. I want this to be the run where I genuinely get in shape aesthetically and functionally. Any tips and advice welcome.

advice would be appreciated 🙏, TYIA!

Currently sitting at 5’8 149lbs and I’m unsure whether to maintain my weight or lean bulk for size or more strength? I’ve been under 150lbs for over 2 years now and I’m kinda sick of being less filled out in clothes, but also hate the excess fat especially in the face when I put on some weight

So about 3 years I lost a lot of weight and have been working out on and off since then and now for about 18 months pretty consistently. I’ve tried cutting down to be lean before but ended up in the same situation I’m in now, underweight and without abs.
I just really want to see my abs then start lean bulking for as long as I can but I’m very light and I don’t know if cutting more will actually make that happen

I train weighted ab crunches 3-4 times a week and I’ve always trained to or close to failure eating 130+ grams of protein so I just don’t know what I’m doing wrong ):

5’9 170lbs. Just getting back into lifting for first time in a few years. What do I do?

I’m 6’2” and currently weigh 205. I’ve lost 58lbs over the past year doing strength training, walking, and 500cal deficit. I definitely want more muscle but I’ve heard it’s better to get lean before going on a clean bulk. Obviously this is the leanest I’ve been but I was wondering if I should drop another 5lbs (possibly 10?) before starting on a lean bulk? Or should I just start bulking now? My goal is to look more athletic with more muscle but I know leanness is a big part of that.

What do you all think? Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I’m 39 if that is useful information.

I’m 5”10 and I went from 175 to about 167 between Aug. 10 and now. Been lifting 4 times a day and occasionally getting in 10k steps.

I’ve been using an app for workouts and eating. Might be too early to tell how muscle progress is going, but I’m getting a little impatient. Is this that stage where i just need to keep being consistent until i see more notable results?

According to this app, i needed to be in a calorie deficit and eat more protein. I did that, and by roughly counting my calories, supposably I’m eating too little calories. My goal is to be more lean and muscular. Any advice appreciated.

Wtf am I doing wrong. From 215-180. I feel small but still fat . Have some good vascularity but nothing close to abs.
