fair enough for face debloat cardio too is insanely effective

Don't cut, you literally have zero muscle.
Eat a high protein diet, and try to either maintain your bodyweight or slowly gain ~2lbs per month. Make sure to follow a routine and progressively overload.

Its better to cut early than to cut 2 years into lifting due to newbie gains

This guy is 16 years old, 5'9, 138lbs, and you think he should attempt to lose weight.

Its contingent if he has face fat or not

my face isnt super fat but its also not lean enough for me to have hollow cheeks but that could also just be a bones issue

i would do a very lean bulk, don’t cut, maintain if your happy with your physique, but i’d defiantly suggest bulking.

Don’t do a porker bulk, you’ll ruin your physique ask me how i know…

But a lean bulk will be perfect for you. High protein diet, don’t stuff food down, don’t do high calorie burning exercises in the gym focus on weight lifting to help build the muscle.

note:: i would still do cardio in the gym but not a lot of it.

>138 at 5’9
>people are telling him to cut

Are all of you Indians or something? You look like a dweeb under 160 at that height in a country where the average height and weight for a man isn’t 5’7 120.

OP, lift like a madman and eat high protein. Don’t try to gain just get some muscle on your frame and check in again around 6 months.
