Update: I posted here a little while back with the mini-goal of lowering my body fat to 25%. Well, I didn't monitor it and just kept doing what I do (strength training, calorie deficit and then into maintenance/re-composition), and I measured it last week - I exceeded my goal! I'm even lower than that now and my ab muscles…
