    First time cutting. Should I continue cutting? Pics included.

    This is my first cut. I'm 5'6", 134lbs (bulked to 146lbs at 2 pounds a month). Wanted to continue cutting but wasn't sure considering my current weight. Not sure whether to stop and bulk up a little more before cutting again. Should I continue cutting? Thanks.

    Edit: This is my goal

    Since you haven't told us what your goals are this question is impossible to answer.
    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.

    Sorry about that. I thought I had. I've edited the question with my goal. This is the final goal:

    Basically, I'm trying to weight between 150lbs to 160lbs while keeping my body fat at or around 12-15%. That is my ultimate goal.

    I was cutting down a little after bulking to 146lbs because my midsection was getting a little out of control and I didn't want most of my future calories just contributing more to the fat than to the muscle.

    Not sure if it helps. Please let me know if you need any more info.

    I get not wanting to put on too much fat, but if the ultimate goal is more muscle then the less time you can spend in a deficit the better.
    All it takes is consistency, effort, proper nutrition, good programming, and TIME.

    Stop cutting. As previous poster said you are around your goal bf % already. Time to bulk. Maybe go for 152-158lbs this time? whatever you feel comfortable/happy with. Good luck.
