Been doing a lot of research that says it’s better to get to 10% body fat before starting a clean bulk. Seen that simply aesthetically, it’s a better look than packing on mass where you get to 20% BF, and that you should cut down to 10, then bulk up to 15, and repeat the process over and over again. Part of the reason being that you make better gains when you’re at a lower BF %. I’ve been following those recommendations and am currently 5’11, 158 lbs, and around 13.5% BF. Maintaining my lifts but it’s more and more difficult each session. My decreasing weight is the only thing getting to me.

What are your guys thoughts on this matter?
