3 Month Cut With Pics

[jtrain2323]

Started this cut January 15th, 2014 and the plan is to get down to sub 10% body fat and possibly doing a show. Started out at 220 lbs. and I'm down to 186 lbs. Have a lot of fat left to lose and wonder what my BF % is right now and how much more I will need to lose to get sub 10%. First pic was taken 1/15/14 then each pic taken about 1 month after that up until 4/10/14 is the last pic taken. Let me know what % body fat you think I am. Thanks

14-16%

Wow you are doing a GREAT job! That belly literally disappeared! I'd say you are around 15% (though I'm notoriously bad at estimating)

[jtrain2323]

I thought I was more like 20-25%

Awesome work, man. What'd your caloric deficit look like for those months?

[VmissileX]

About 500 per day and doing 1 reefed per week

Great results dude!
What was your workout when cutting?
How do you calculate your TDEE?

4 day split doing chest and tris, back and bis, legs, shoulders and traps... I figured my TDEE by just using MFP for a week and tracking all my calories and averaging them out from what I would normally eat in a week... Cut 500 cals out from that # and went with it that simple

[tara19]

I would say 17-20% without seeing legs/back.
Also are you flexing?

[Psylas]

Good work dude 👍

Flexing my lats... To be honest I don't know what my back looks like as I haven't had anyone take a pic and look at it!!

[jtrain2323]

Good work dude 

Thanks man

Very good cut so far. You have a lot of muscle under there so lots of potential.

Also, cute vanity bag.

Thanks I thought I would be a little more shredded after losing close to 35 lbs but still have a ways to go... U want to buy the vanity bag?!?!

Tempting I'll admit but I wouldn't want you to part with it.

It is quite a shock for most of us at some point to realize how much the years have added to us--was for me. Still, 35 pounds in 3 months is huge and as we can all see from the pictures it's a massive change and improvement. Keep it up!

[elite2292]

Probably around 165-170 you should be around 10%.

Great job!

Just curious...

In the months leading up to your cut what was your body compostion like?
Was it a planned bulk or was this how you were for a very long time?

[maXmood]

good job.! keep at it.

i'd say you're around 18-20% compared to what i've seen on different threads.

[wings_unhinged]

Awesome cut, especially at 500 cal deficit.

So what was your caloric intake on average?
Do you do other activities other than lifting 4 times a week? Do you have a sedentary job or lifestyle?

I've been like that for a while. Worked out off and on my whole life but never for me than a few mos at a time then I would take a year off and I always say I will stay with it longer and never do. I jut decided after eating whatever I wanted and drinking adult beverages on the reg I needed to change so won't stop cutting til I'm happy with how I look

About 2500 calories was my TDEE so I started the cut on 2000 cals while only lifting 4 days a week. I have a desk job so unless I get out and exercise I'm sedentary unless u count lifting a stapler as exercise now as of recently I have picked up playing racquetball some and I have been doing cardio a few times a week

[LloydRey]

Well done, keep posting your progress!!

[discdoggie]

Well done!

[uabeng]

Great transformation...

[davidolson22]

Amazing cut. Can't believe you achieved so much in only 3 months.

Funny you say that... I feel like I have achieved very little in 3 mos. I thought I would be down to where I wanted to be in 3 mos but guess I under estimated how much fat I was carrying
