Hi all, I'm 23, 6"4 and 195 lbs. After a long injury, I can finally get back to working out with weights after about 8 months.
I'm very unhappy with my the fat in my midsection (especially lower back).
Should I bulk or cut first?
Any general tips on how to proceed?
Thank you!

I'm 6'5" and I know what its like to be in your position. You're at that spot where you're already getting light for your height, but you're still carrying too much fat. I would suggest slowly cutting, and I do mean SLOWLY, like 0.5-1lb per week, while following a lifting program. You're probably not going to be able to cut more than about 10 lbs before you'll need to switch gears and start building for a while, you can slowly lean bulk up to about 210-215 before then slowly cutting again. Then rinse and repeat as required.
All it takes is consistency, effort, proper nutrition, good programming, and TIME.
Don't be upset with the results you didn't get from the work you did not do.
