If you're not in a rush then there's no need to cut harder and feel miserable. Just stay consistent and over time you'll lean out while keeping size. The key is patience and trusting the process.If I'm honest I think I have a pretty good balance at the moment weight is going down and I don't seem to dropping strength or losing muscle. Can't help but think it'd be more efficient to cut harder or bulk for a bit. But cutting hard is miserable and I don't wanna bulk cause still as chubby enough as it is.
Just gotta keep reminding myself of my goals and to stay on target.
