Body recomp - is that real

Hi. I’m finishing my cut and I don’t want to go on another bulk and gain unnecessary fat. I’ve read that body recomposition is actually possible — staying at maintenance calories and simply training hard. Supposedly, you can build muscle while using body fat as an energy source, so your body weight stays roughly the same while you gain muscle and lose fat.
I’m in my fifth year of training, I’d consider myself more of an advanced lifter, and I’ve always cycled between bulking and cutting. I’m a bit skeptical about body recomp. Has it actually worked for any of you more advanced lifters?
