I would put you at around 12-14%, since you still have visible abs.

Gots to disagree with the other guys, your looking around 13%. 16% and no way you could see any form of abs unless you do a ton of abwork. You are about a month away from total 6 pack if you work your cardio and diet the right way.

14%.....Clean bulk and you could be a monster...seriously dude....Cheers

Really? 18%? No way. When your 18% you got rolls everywhere. Heres a good pic where you can kinda at least guestimate:

(35%-20%)

(15%-8%)

This guide can't be 100% correct because everybody burns fat from different areas in different ways...but this is a good place to start. You are not at 18% like some other people have said....keep cutting and you will be beastly.

^^^ have to agree, I would have said 12-13%.. you have visable abs, not deep, but you can see the outline. for most men this generally starts to occur around 12%. Plus you have a decent amount of muscle for your height, so that further will lower your bodyfat. The bigger the guy, the lower the bodyfat percent, and still can look somewhat soft.

i.e. a 150lb guy carrying 10% will have 15lbs of bodyfat on him in total
a 260lb guy carrying 10% will have 26lbs of bodyfat on him in total..

this is where the skinny kids get confused when trying to guesstimate on a bigger guy, they are simply not used to looking at 200+lb guys (not in a gay way, LOL)

I agree completely

[redbullrr]

13-14% You have definition for starters pretty good definition. I'd say keep bulking cause your well on your way to a nice cut for summer.

Yar, I love the guys that critique you and have no pictures of themselves at all. Heh, you're way leaner than me! I can tell you that much. But I'm the worlds dirtiest bulker...

Edit: I quoted who I agreed with, not disagreed.
