I have fat around my chest and stomach but muscle on my arms and legs so WHAT SHOULD I DO should I continue to hit the weights and Bulk or Eat less and Cutt

Whatever you do, you should keep training - following a progressive lifting program, even in a deficit, is beneficial. In a deficit it'll help you maintain muscle.

You could either lose some of the fat by eating in a deficit, or consider recomp if you are at a healthy weight (eating at maintenance to lose fat slowly as you gain muscle slowly)

How much is high protein to you? I'd aim for 0.8g per lb bodyweight. You can also get protein from a variety of sources, and eat a more varied diet than you are to get results.

ETA- in answer to your thread title, you should also only post your question in one thread. Multiple threads of the same thing are against forum rules...

Thanks for advice

Eat at a reasonable deficit and lift.

Unless you are medically advised to, a high protein diet is not needed, eat a well balanced diet that fulfils your nutritional needs and is satisfying.

Also, ask the moderators to condense your 3 posts on different sub-forums into one. (It's against MFP's TOS to multi post)

Cheers, h.

Crunches. The rest will sort itself out.
