Should I gain some mass or continue with my body fat loss diet?

Hello
Im 15 years old, 1.75 meter height (thats 5.7feet) and my weight is about 57kg (127 pound) Ive been working out for like 6 month and I look much better now than before, my body fat is around 10-13% now.. so I was wondering should I continue doing all the cardio or just maybe gain some mass and then start with fatloss diet again? Because if i get my ripped abs now and then start gaining mass all my hard work will go.. or no?

Thanks

You're 15, I'm assuming your male, you should not be cutting, dieting, or doing excessive cardio (unless for sport or pleasure).

It is your TIME TO GROW! 57 Kilos, at 1.75 meters is by far to light!


Train! Eat! Grow!

P.S.

Okey here we go:

Morning:
Cornflex with 3% milk or Oatmeal
Yougurt 3% with fruits
Cottage or Low fat cheese
Green Tea w/o sugar

After a workout
banana shake (1egg w/o yolk, some milk, ice cream, banana, yougurt w/ fruits)

Dinner
Sometimes soup
Brown rice with fish or chicken or sometimes some beef
Green Tea w/o sugar or Apple juice
Tomato and a cucumber and green paper with olive oil

Supper
Fish or chicken
Sometimes with brown rice or only with a salad and some black bread

After Supper
Grapes or a yougurt maybe some black bread again

Thats pretty much all I eat during the week
phew

Jedi,

Your current diet looks very good and healthy. Quite refreshing for a 15 year old. I wouldn't worry about "bulk" and "cut" at your age. Just focus on your weightlifting. Cardio is okay a few times a week.

Just keep eating those types of foods, when spring/summer comes around next year you can drop a few of those foods (I said a few!) and make slight alterations if you want to lose a little BF (I said a little!).

The key here is to keep eating healthy!

I'm impressed! Some adults could learn a thing or two from you!

This is very good! I don't think you need to change anything really...maybe add a little cottage cheese to your last meal there for some added protein (it's good mixed w/ the yogurt). If you're drinking that egg raw you might want to use the pasturized egg whites that come in a carton...and add a bit more than one. You're a little low on fats...some peanuts, natural peanut butter, walnuts, almonds, olive oil and flax seed oil could be added....these are all healthy fats that you need in your diet.

You could add some to that shake if you wanted to...but remember it's a supplement and certainly not required.
