    Are these pictures suitable for monitoring progress on a cut? My main goal is a visable 6-pack when relaxed, so this is what I mainly want to concentrate on.

    Was it you who said you did a caliper test and got 20% but reckoned you were 17%??

    You are more like 14-15% max mate, you do not need to cut and should go on a lean bulk in my opinion.

    Look at your obliques ffs!

    Yeah that was me. I am having a body comp test in about 2 hours so will find out then.

    TBH I only want to cut a few %BF, followed by a lean bulk until summer.

    To be honest Mike I've never thought you were 18%+, I can tell that from your seeing you in the gym.

    Personally I would try to shed some fat then lean bulk. this is what the literature points to these days especially for those of us who don't wish to enter comps. etc. Stay lean all year round!

    When you eat the foods your body is made for (Paleo foods) in a framework that your body is made for (feast-fast, such as IF), it all works beautifully.

    Yeah this is what I am going to do. I'm not going to spend too much time cutting, 6 weeks if I lose fat quick enough.

    However I am keeping my calorie intake fairly high so that I don't risk losing what little muscle I have!
