Depends on how much muscle you have! If you have quality muscle now, then of course you can start getting that ripped look any time. Now if you are skinny, you may want to add mass first, then of course you do your leaning out. So, not knowing more, that is probably the best answer I can give at this point.

If you think you are happy with your muscle size, then getting cut is always a good way to look good. I always find that I end up looking bigger when I get real cut.

The last time I got super cut, I only weighed 160 and people couldn't beleive it. Bodybuilding is alot about illusion. If you look big, then people will think you are big. I'm only 160lbs in my pics here and look bigger then I am now at over 180lbs.

Make sure to take your time though when trying to get cut. You don't want to lose what muscle you do have. Up your protein intake and reduce you carb intanke.

The more total lean muscle mass you got, the easier it is to cut and loose fat.

Now what's your goals?
