Is it okay to cut at this amount of muscle?

[LegendKiIIer]

Started at 135, gained weight to 165 and now I'm 156 after losing ~9lbs of fat

My goal has always been to have a fit body (abs with some muscle), never been into hardcore bodybuilding or anything

I would love to gain more muscle/strength in the future but right now my goal is getting a beach body (I live in a state where it's summer basically 24/7)

Also a rough bodyfat estimate would be cool because I'm confused on this, ty!

it's ok to cut imo, you seem to be around 17-18%

Gotcha, thanks brother!

You are still lean enough to keep bulking and you could do to put on some more muscle first. I'd say you're probably 16-17% if I had to guess. I would need to see a relaxed front and back photo but your triceps, shoulders, and back all seem to be coming along really nicely.

you can either focus on getting stronger and bigger sacrifising the last weeks of this summer and getting leaner and better for the next one,or you could do what you want and get a bit leaner now.
