Is lean law even if your losing muscle?

[WeMightAscendNgl]

Was 200lbs bulked up about a year ago. Now I’m about 142lbs at 5’10 quite skinny I’d say 15-17% bodyfat, lifts have gone down a lot but face looks a lot better objectively. I think I have to cut to like 125lbs if I want abs and 10-12% bf, is this worth it? My neck is getting very skinny though. I’m 22.

Trying to do the whole body recomp thing seems like big cope especially natty.

And I’m training my neck but strength is going down a lot and it’s harder to make progress.

yes, at first you lose a lot of size without significant facial changes, but the leaner you get the crazier it becomes. once u become truly lean, each kg lost changes the face like crazy

Also when you buff up ur neck it’s so hard to lose the macula

You can always lean bulk after getting lean, I would get lean first even if it means being a twink. A muscular physique is COMMON in comparison to a very lean face. You'll stand out much more with it.

Getting to model tier leanness will rape your neck width unfortunately. I have a pretty minimalist approach to training my body except for neck I spam the fuck out of weighted curls, lateral flexion, and extensions.

Neck training is "easy" for people because most people have underdeveloped necks. But once it catches up to where it should be it's actually one of the hardest muscles to grow tbh, similar to calves and very dependent on your genetics
