    15 Years old, 20% bodyfat, is it ok to recomp?

    Hey everyone,
    I am generally young and high in bodyfat for my taste. I am doing a body recomp currently with a goal of 15% bodyfat and adding 10-15 Ib of muscle in 2-3 months. I wanted to know if this would stunt my growth, as I have to be in around a 15-20% calorie deficit and am currently in puberty/growth. Currently doing PPL for my workouts. Weight is 170 Ib. Thanks!

    1 - You don't know what a recomp is if you're trying to lose weight with a 20% caloric deficit. (I would NOT recommend a big cut to a guy in puberty.)

    2 - You will not put on 15 pounds of muscle in 3 months. You MIGHT put on a third of that.

    3 - What is your workout?

    1 - I have a high protein intake to supplement that, 200 grams per day. Goal is that my body takes the remaining 15-20% deficit from my fat to fuel muscle growth.

    2 - yeah now that I think about it I am probably going to gain .25-.5 of that much in a month. Goal is to make .5-.75 Ib of muscle per week.

    3 - PPL. I can’t share the documents to my workouts as I have less than 50 posts.

    Note: I go light weight, 15 pounds, for shoulder exercises but 20 pounds for the others. Generally take 30-60 second rest between sets and exercises and 60-120 seconds per circuit.
