    How much fat do I need to lose (with pics)?

    Been lean bulking since March. Plan is to keep bulking until this coming February/March and then lose some BF for the summer. I’d like to get a good beach body (around 10-15% BF). Avg weigh in is around 180-182lbs.

    Here are some recent pics. I carry most of my BF on my love handles

    The question is, how much weight will I need to lose to get to my goal? I’d like to know so that I can work backwards. It would be great if I can keep bulking for even longer.

    Stop trolling, you're already well below 15%. Probably in the 10-12% zone.
    All it takes is consistency, effort, proper nutrition, good programming, and TIME.

    Don't be upset with the results you didn't get from the work you did not do.

    Seriously I’m not trolling. I always thought people underestimated their BF and didn’t want to do the same. I would guess I’m around 15% and want to get to 10%

    No, you're not at 15, probably 12 max.

    Agreed, I'd guess 12% - you could drop to 10% For truly shredded abs, which would mean losing about 5lb, maybe 7lb including water weight, but getting that low will probably mean sacrificing a little lean mass too. Personally I'd be happy with what you've got!
