Been bulking since November 68kg - current 75.6 kg. Some might say i should continue bulking but I want to keep the fat gains to a minimum, So i am starting a 12 week cut. My macros are below, do they look ok for someone of my stats? 5 ft 9, 75.6 kg?
Edit - Do you think i could get away with lowering my Fats and increasing my carbs? I find it hard to eat fat during the day.
Thank you for your time

I'd say macros and calories look ok but you're pretty much at the low end of where you should be on fats already so no, I don't think you'd be ok with lowering fat below the 63g you have listed.

I'd bump fats to about 1g/kg personally but if you do well low fat I don't think it's going to do much damage.

Set protein to 135 grams and dietary fat to 75 grams. Compose the remainder of your caloric intake from whatever mix of carbs and additional protein and fat you prefer.

Thanks for all opinions, all repped. Will bump fats to 75g and lower carbs accordingly. Thanks once again.
