How do I properly resize my LVM partitions when it is inside LUKS?

Do I have to boot in a USB to do it or can it be done while the crypt is open/being used? I need to resize my root partition.

#linux #lvm #luks @linux

    Did you already shrink the filesystem? I think lvresize will refuse to shrink if the FS is too big (not sure - I don’t shrink volumes often).
