Decrease bodyfat without losing too much muscle

[Basher122]

Hello!
I wanted to ask if any of you had experiences with the following.
I am around 92kg rn at 1.90cm I’m 17 y/o and I’ve done a slow cut from like 130kg to 105kg in a year and a half and then from 105kg to 92kg in like 3 months. I’ve build some muscle in the slow cut (I was able to bench around 125kg could do chin ups and one armed push ups and stuff). After the fast cut I’m feeling weird mentally but get compliments about how I look better while my bench or decreased to like 100kg can still do the body exercises but strength definitely decreased. Now I think I’m at around 20% bf (was measured a month ago). I’m just wondering if this is the right way and ensuring that I don’t fry my hormones or anything. I ate like 1.5k calories (180g protein 60g healthy fats rest carbs) go to the gym 2x a week (I only train upper body there since I also do mma 5x a week and train legs enough there). I’m sorry for writing so much but I’d be thankful if anybody could help. Am I on the right path? Or should I increase calories to 2.200-2.400 and cut slowly again?

I’d honestly cut all the carbs or leave them only for pre workout time id your an active individual. Having nutritionally empty carbs in a cutting phases is moronic, they are just empty calories. So cut the carb, up the fats and keep the protein. I’d keep fats at 100g a day minimum tbh. Protein should be the last place calories are cut from.

Okay thanks so I’m not destroying my metabolism as long as I eat 100g + healthy fats and much protein?

100g minimum fats to maintain healthy hormone function, enough animal protein to maintain muscle mass, bone mineral density etc, and reduce the carbs to create a caloric deficit. simple as.
