Do I look 12 percent bodyfat yet?

[Brad155]

As for vascularity...I wouldn't worry about it. It's all genetics. I'm sitting at 13-14 percent right now and I have more vascularity than some others with lower bodyfat than me. It's a combination of thin skin and muscle mass, and the thin skin part is what makes the veins really show. I have quad vascularity right now at this bodyfat.

This as well... It's genetic brah. I have thick skin and low blood pressure so even at like 8% my vascularity ****ing sucks. I get some veins in my bi's, a little down my forearms, some in my shoulders, and some running down my abs, but only when I'm lean as **** and even then they are all incredibly faint.

17 percent...and yet you can see delt striations in your avi. Hmm.



You aren't above 15, or even at 15 for that matter.

Your delt caps are visible, and you have visible separation in your arms. Your abs are visible, the only thing that's making a difference in pics is that you're pasty white. Your adonis belt is also easily visible. What do your legs look like?

Thanks brah appreciate the effort you are giving this (srs)


Legs (in before lack of bulge comments)

[Elevennn]

Strong rep begs ITT? Seriously 16 - 18ish OP.

EDIT: 14 - 16 after above pic.

[xITHYPHALLIC]

Leg pic confirms it. Visible separation between muscle groups, and I can see where your teardrops are. You are doing fine.

in this pic you look closer to 15-16%. Everybody stores fat differently, so hard to tell % just from a picture. people in this thread have guessed between 13 and 18%, you're not gonna get a good answer from here.
Are you losing weight? Are you maintaining strength? Are you weighing at the same time of the day? If so, you're losing fat.

Although it may be inaccurate, use a simple online bf% calculator and follow that. It wont be accurate, but it will be a constistent measurement so you will be able to track progress.

Leg pic indeed gives a better image. When I saw the first pics I would say 18%.
But it's still around 14%. 12% looks way leaner.

Thanks brah but theres gotta be some reason people are thinking the high teens

I cant just pretend those comments arnt there.

Im thinking it was a mistake putting the relaxed pic up because of my distended stomach. I normally walk around flexed so it doesnt stick out. Maybe my puffy nipples add a couple percentages to peoples scale?

[seboobie]

Definitely not 12%. I'd say around 16%.

Stomach vacuum pic

according to the similarity of your stomach vacuum, and this gif



youre like 50%

EDIT* On a serious note though, your previous thread was made at 9:50am, and this thread was 930pm. So if you took the pics before making these threads, you have a whole days worth of eating under your gut right now compared to the other pics

[NZninja101]

jk, I'd say 15-16% though.

yeah I do without a doubt. Doing leangains IF so i have a ton in me now. I just didnt think it would throw off a BF estimate that much.

[jakeb820]

Just keep up with your diet, you still have a solid 2 months before summer and if you stay strict you'll be set. You might have to get into the 150s to reach your goals, so dont be disappointed. As for your stomach the leaner you get the less noticeable it will be.

man

never thought id see the 150s again.

[RipterScale]

saw page 2.

14-16%

[solidsnake88]

not reading through all the posts so don't know if it's been asked, but what times did u take the pics? the other thread looks like a morning, less bloat, this pic looks like more bloat/carb/water weight added in hence higher BF% appearance. your abs definitely are more visible now compared to then, but you're not 12% like others have stated. you're closer to my BF%, which is around 16-17% at best.

[Ragana]

Honestly, you're 16-18%.. I know you don't want to hear that man, but it's the truth.

Yeah i honestly wouldnt be surprised. Seems like for bodybuilding im fighting an uphill battle up a 90 degree angle.

Last time i obsessed over bodyfat was 2 years ago. I was 18-20 percent then.

2 years of busting ass in the gym

same thing.

Feels great man. Dont even know why I try at this point.

stop being a whiny little girl. you've learned the best thing you could out of this - experience. and even then i don't see what you're upset about - you just started off with a higher bf% to begin with. why don't u take some pics in the morning when you're not as bloated. i'm sure that will make a huge difference. and make sure your diet is in check.

edit - saw you're muslim. it's our east asian genetics man...odds are against us, but you gotta prove it to yourself you can do better.

[SmashItUp]

13-15%, don't know why you're taking half these comments seriously, let's be honest most of the misc is nerdy string bean kunts that don't even lift. If you had a lot more muscle mass at the percent you're at now you would look a lot leaner than you are. Definitely not over 15%, try not to take photos after eating, you appear as though your sensitive to bloating.

[bomfire]

I'd say around 15%

this

[Torcida1911]

You look around 16 on the original post but in the other pic u provided u look leaner prob 13-14. If it bothers u that much go get a water dunk test lol then you will know for sure.

[Champ3113]

the first pics where at a horrible angle. you need to always take pics like the ones you last posted. I think anyone can look like they are higher bf if they take pics like that.

[Vindervar]

14-15% bf.

Way off from 12% brah. I'd say give two months more of solid cutting.
==

Btw, Asian crap-netics represent.
Don't feel discouraged. Recalculate macros every month. Diet is essential in bring out those abs. You can try IIFYM if you are up for it.

[bigcalibrah]

Op is fat af

[cdnava10]

Ignore the puffy nipples, its just how im built i guess lol.

BRAH! We have twin nipples srs. I KNOW THAT FEEL. Will upload pics of my nipples if interested (no homo)
























(strong homo)

















(Some homo)

[FeelTheFear]

you are at least 15%

[madBrosef]

ur sitting at around 14% in my opinion, also stop being a bitch, have u thought its possbile that ur bodyfat % was higher to start with then u original thought???, seems as tho u got ur 12% wrong, keeping working at it and adjusting ur cals and u will continue to see process, If not just keep whinging and give up on ur whole life while ur at it!

[AA43560]

guys , just took a bodpod test at my school. I fuking got 9.9 percent bodyfat.Im dead fuking serious. I asked what the accuracy was and they said its like 98 percent accurate. Could it be bad calibration or am I really that lean? Maybe i just dont have a lot of muscle so i look higher bodyfat/dont fill my skin out? Maybe i have thick skin which through the calipers off?

will post pics later of test result

[ZenBowman]

Bro chill out lol you're asking what everyone thinks then getting mad at everyone's answers. Just trying to HELP you out bruh!

This.
