Our Body Fat Percentage is Too Dam High Crew...Time to CUT (Overweight/Obese Edition)

[TheMinimalist]

Decided to start up a new crew. I've seen several miscers who are overweight/obese...so figured we could motivate each other here...

EVERYONE'S BODYWEIGHT WILL BE TRACKED IN THE FORM OF A LINE GRAPH

CLIFFS: if you want to get in on this, just post in this thread with your body weight (makes it easy for me to log them)...i will make a chart once per week to track everyone's progress (every sunday)...also note: you can enter your body weight any day of the week, and as frequently as you like...b/c every bodyweight you log, on any day, will get entered into the chart!!

*There is no official start/end day!! This will be ongoing...indefinitely! (this starts whenever you decide you want to get in on it...and ends when you reach your goal, do it on your own, or give up. Up to you. (hopefully it's when you reach your goal, or do it on your own...and NOT because you give up)

*All Late comers...feel free to join in! Just add your current body weight...and You'll be entered in, the next sunday!



After tomorrow, I won't be able to EDIT this post, so don't spazz out if your name is not in the below list (which was made on October 9th, 2013) So far, these people are confirmed to be IN. I have listed the starting bodyweights and usernames (if there are any corrections that need to be made, please aware me)



^^^^NOTE: If I misspelt your name, or didn't enter your bodyweight correctly, please let me know in the thread...[/b]




And the list below is for people who posted in this thread, who seem like are in on this...but didn't post their current body weight. You may have it listed on your bodyspace, but for many of you, those are not updated...so wanted to make sure I get the most recent bodyweight...so if you're definitely in on this, please update your body weight in this thread, so I can add you to the excel spreadsheet, thx...

Lets Get Aesthetic!

[S13HATCHY]

[stevie12345]

Love food too much to cut crew

[TheMinimalist]

im at 10-11%

feels bad man

I want below 8

lol...if you feel bad...what do you think I feel at 24% body fat?

[DizzySmalls]

6'3, 209lbs... I have a hard time imagining you are all that fat, unless you are going by misc standards? Maybe I'm ignorant.

24% bf on those hand held things. i took pics 3 days ago. i'm gonna post them up, so you'll see what i'm talking about. all belly/manboobs...and very little LBM. i hate my body shape...that's why i want to change it so bad.

i initially thought i'd have to get down to 180lbs to look decent (b4 i bulk). but others have said i'd probably have to go lower!!!!

anyways, im not gonna look that far, just gonna continue losing weight, get enough protein, and lift with intensity, and continue doing cardio.

[21Reza]

in on this, and also fellow crew member reps ;p

[anonymous]

Like 15% bf right now. I feel like **** bleh, gonna get back down to 10-12.

[anonymous]

22% bf checking in. I want it to be around 15%. 7% of 185lb = ~15lb to go.

22% of 185lb = ~41lb

[Ancients]

feelsbadman

brb 6'1 210 at like 20%

been meaning to cut for a while. no motivation at all fuk

[TheMinimalist]

6'3, 209lbs... I have a hard time imagining you are all that fat, unless you are going by misc standards? Maybe I'm ignorant.

are those ur most recent stats on the left? iirc, in my other thread, u said ur were 320lbs in high school? that's some sick progress dude. keep it up man! i now know what u mean about the difference, and i probably shouldnt complain too much, sorry man. anyways, get it done bro! handle ur business!!!!

in on this, and also fellow crew member reps ;p

lets do this!

[anonymous]

in on this, and also fellow crew member reps ;p

Rep Power: 0

[21Reza]

Rep Power: 0

strong rep power to rep power diss

repped

[fingerbreaker10]

I'm at 18% on a bulk. Wanna bulk til April/ May before I start to cut. Last time I cut I didn't have enough mass ( dem feels ) and it sucked. I'm 5'11 and 204lbs. Hopefully I make it in the end

[BigTimeBull]

Im at like 12-14% BF right now, so i don't quite qualify for this crew(although i still need to cut down)...But being a former obese kunt, i know these feels.

[TheMinimalist]

22% bf checking in. I want it to be around 15%. 7% of 185lb = ~15lb to go.

22% of 185lb = ~41lb

strong similar way of thinking bro! but tbh, don't get too caught up in numbers. because your expectations may not be met, and you may have to get to a lower body weight. just go by the mirror, and only use the scale as a point of reference, so that you know ur losing weight each week. otherwise, just go by how you look in the mirror.

[hammerfelt]

In, but won't be starting cut until the end of January after a powerlifting competition.

Best of luck to everyone.

[StuartT44]

Im at ~17%, just want to get to 10% then bulk nd get some real muscles

[Mindrevolution]

I'm 6' 231 so in. Sounds like I got the highest bf% here so far

[WOLFBRAH]

up in the mix like bisquick

[sudokus]

14% and feeling fat as phuck, even though I was 20%+ for most of my teenage years. gonna cut to 11-12% then bulk to 200 lb, hope I make it

[hammerfelt]

I'm 6' 231 so in. Sounds like I got the highest bf% here so far

I will save you from that.

Yea man.I used to weight myself daily and now do it once every three weeks. It would be so disappointing to see an increase in pound or something. Yea, the best gauge is how you look in the mirror.

[henhuynh]

I used to be 190. I got down to 173 but hit a plateau and havent dropped since. Ive been stuck since may

[S1D3SW1P3]

18%-19% crew checking in, lets get motivated and do this *******s. Not gonna cut yet, since I'm trying to build my strength. Want to BB Bench 225, Squat 275, DL 315 for 5x5 before I cut again. That being said, I have been still seeing gains in muscle and some fat loss, just not very fast.

lets do this!

That's the spirit. I wish it wasn't the case, but I did this:

320 lb senior yr. high school
~230lb starting college
~215lb and cardio fit sophomore year, injured my knee running ~15-20 miles a week
~260lb junior year post injury
~230lb beginning of senior year and cardio fit again (killed it that summer)
~275lb at end of senior year college
~265lb now

Not really proud of the yo-yo and the wasted time during college. I was so driven and unstoppable at the end of high school.

Still waiting for the opportunity to not be categorized as obese. Never got to that "overweight" status I was going to celebrate.

[TheDraugr]

Calipers put me at 16% or so, tape measure method (height, neck, abdomen) puts me at 18.5%. At 260, that isn't too bad (pretty well over 200lbs LBM). Started cutting about 5 days ago pretty hard after reading both of Chris Aceto's books on fat loss and bodybuilding prep, currently eating 300g protien, ~450 carbs, the rest fat for 3200 cal/day, lost 2lbs already, and that's after a pretty decent sized breakfast.

It's a bit of a pain to track everything, but I think I'll be able to make better progress this way. I've been stuck at 260 for a while, and it's nice to see the scale moving again. Hopefully it keeps up.

[hammerfelt]

Couple months back got on the plane weighing in the 360's and did not need a seat belt extension. That was a good day.

[Ascendency]

PT measured me 20% bf

I no longer train with him anymore, but I think im higher than 20% because when i compare myself to pictures of 20% online they look better

[cnh57811]

Started at 265. Got down to 160. Binged back up to 185.

On my way back down to 160(175 right now) and then clean bulk.
