anyone explain

Why do I still have this bit of fat at the bottom of my abs yet I'm 155 lbs, veins everywhere, diet is the best it's ever been, getting 7.5 hours sleep a night, teetotal and very rarely (if ever) have a cheat meal

you're too pedantic OP, you're lean enough now go on a bulk. If you must know the answer your bodyfat is still too high.

I get your pain.
From what you said, I can definitely say 7.5 hours of sleep is not enough, for me to feel good enough I need at LEAST 8 hours of sleep, even better, 9 hours of sleep, which is the optimal number, try 8-9 hours.

You need to build your abs, then drop bf %

I've tried flipping everything to lower the bodyfat, 25 min HIIT, 40 minute cardio walk, eating less than I ever have yet nothing is working, in fact I would say I'm actually gaining weight

Look at this photo: see what I mean? 4 abs then a layer of fat

Um, if you eat less it might be bad, since some people take it too far and don't eat enough for the metabolism to keep revving.

I know it sounds strange, but if your calorie intake is too low, your body will just think it's trying to survive, so it will store every bit of calories as fat just in case your calorie intake drops again, so it would have some fuel to try and survive, but if your calories are high enough, your body thinks everything is fine, but it needs some assistance from the fat storage.
