About time, bro. Step away from the fucking permabulking dark side and get shredded!
You've got the knowledge, as well as the drive... I don't know why you haven't leaned out a LOT sooner. Once you get shredded you'll look back in shame lol
I used to think anyone conditioned was a pussy who was afraid of losing their abs, but that couldn't be further from the truth. We're both not competing in the immediate future (not sure if you've planned on it at least?) so there's nothing to lose. Bodybuilders should look the part all year round. Once you eliminate the fat, all you'll put on is just water weight at the most. I don't even think it's possible for me to get fat any more and I put very minimal effort into watching my diet or any shit like that.
