Reckon I can reach "ottermode" for Summer?

[Tal106]

Hey all, my long-term goal is to get ripped, but I have a short-term goal of getting lean and a little muscular for the summer (ottermode as some people call it)
Do you think it's doable? I'm on JasonDB's routine, bulking until late January then I'm going to cut

Apparently I'm 16-19% body fat, 145lb 5ft 5.5" manlet

Been lifting for almost 3 months, here's a couple pics of what i'm at right now

I will of course be bulking next Autumn

I'm bulking right now on 3000 cals a day, hitting macros, probably too much protein, but i still hit my fat and carb requirement so if my diet and training is in check do you think i can make it?

If you start a decent cut in January as you stated then you should be able to lean out pretty easily for summer. No worries about Manlet status bro, im 5'3 lol. As far as gaining more muscle by then it all depends on how much time you want to give yourself to cut. The slower you cut the less muscle your going to drop in the process. Normally 1-2 pounds a week recommended. Im bulking till Jan, cutting for Feb 22nd which is a crucial date for myself, then i plan on a 2 month small bulk followed by a cut for summer lol. All depends on how much time your giving yourself to cut.

You are more muscular than ottermode. If you want to reach ottermode all you need to do is lose 10-15lbs. I'd advise against it though. Keep bulking untill at least february. Then start cutting and you will be shredded by summer. Keep us updated.

You're 16% bodyfat at the most right now though. Definitely not as high as 19.

Thanks guys I appreciate it, I will bulk by February then! I was just making sure I give myself plenty of time, but as long as I am looking good for the start of Summer I'm easy!
I'm taking the whole thing slow and steady, I am in this for the long haul, not trying to take shortcuts or anything

reps for both
