I know this is going to sound like retarded fatty cope but after a certain bodyfat% your metabolic rate unironically tanks, look at Chris Bumstead, this giant behemoth of a man was eating 1800kcal and doing a few hours of cardio + weights daily just to keep the scale moving downwards leading up to a bodybuilding show, normally he'd need 4000kcal just to not shrink anymore

so if you're low bodyfat% and you've been dieting for a while, I'd suggest slowly raising your calories and eating high carb (to restore leptin to normal levels) and high protein (to manage any rebound hunger) for a week or two and then going back to dieting

also are you tracking calories?

literally depends on your frame, if you look skinny fat then you need to lose fat and build muscle

>currently 135 skinny fat
start lifting NOW
untrained lifters can put on significant muscle mass in a deficit, also the more you lift now, the stronger you'll be when you start lean bulking and the stronger you are, the more volume (volume = force*TuT*reps*sets) you can do, the more volume -> more muscle gains
