Right now I'm 5'2, 138-141 pounds, I strength train 6 times a week and I've been focusing on getting stronger and stronger!

My diet is 1697 calories, 144g of carbs, 144g of protein and 55g of fat. I want to play around with my macros, increase my cardio and how I train so I can lean out a bit more before summer. Do you think making my macros to 125g carbs, 166g protein and 55g fat is a good idea?

Any tips or suggestions, thanks guys!

    I'd personally say your protein intake is adequate. If you want to replace the calories from carbs with anything I'd do it for fat.

    Drop to 125 carbs, keep the protein the same and up the fat intake to 70 grams.
