I have been doing strength training since last one year. Started with 61 kg of weight, now my weight fluctuate between 72 and 74 kg.

My post before starting strength training.

I can bench press 50 kg, barbell squat 90 kg, deadlift 90 kg (I can do more, but my hand grip is weak). I did no cardio the whole year, just walking.

During the year, my diet was normal as before, I just added 25 gm of whey protein every day and 4 kg of beef in a month.

I still have to lose fat from abdominal and side. I look forward to your advice on losing belly fat.

Thank you

alright so, this is not really a lean bulk
i believe the main issue to that it because of low protein intake and you consumed mainly high fat&carbs and low protein foods.
fix your protein intake. you weight 71 kilos you should consume minimum 105g of protein every day

if you adapt this protein intake your gym stats will increase too. which for 1 year are kind of bad.
be disciplined, train every single day (no sundays) and alternate between push and pull days and abs (chest&triceps&shoulders - back&biceps - abs) this will permit you to have a good recovery for each muscle group

obviously since you're doing strength and mass overload keep your reps below 12 and do 6 sets(or maybe 8 because you re training twice a week each muscle group) for each muscle group.

you should also add some polymetrics and explosive excersises like sprinting, for instance do minimum 3 sets of 80m sprinting 3 times a day

i assure you if you apply those things your body will become way better
 
Wow, thank you for your informative response.

What about rest day?

I have been training 4 times a week, each muscle group once (chest&tricep + back&bicep + leg&solder + full-body &abs).

6 to 8 workout each day, each workout 3 sets.

I do need to fix diet and sleep too.

Thank you again
