What is My Body Fat Percentage? - Post Your Estimate Request Pictures Here - Vol III

Im 20 yo/ 178cm and 100kg

I was skinny fat and stuck around 15% for nearly 8 months so decided to bulk up, ended up gaining 30kg in a year, I have gained some fat during the quarantine. I have got stronger and lift heavy. I am going to start cutting soon but just wanted to know rough BF. Scales are saying 37% BF, however, when looking online I do not see myself as 37%, however, I could be wrong.

I also seem to have more fat on my right side pec and also right lower back, I am wondering if anyone has some advice for that.

[QUOTE=Mateo217;1620587191]I'm going to estimate 25-26%.

Lose 15-20 lbs of fat to start to see abs.

Way to get back to it after being off![/QUOTE]

Thanks brother!!

[QUOTE=hama2014;1620663161]Scales are saying 37% BF, however, when looking online I do not see myself as 37%, however, I could be wrong.[/QUOTE]at least 30%, maybe even 35%

don't trust the scales, but i have to admit this time it might be very close

No idea on why your gaining fat awkwardly on one side. You can't spot reduce so hopefully it'll come off the same way it went on.

IMO 37% isn't far off. Maybe 33-35%

When I do a quick Google of 37% it looks pretty similar.

Good luck on your cut but don't cut too hard!

Definitely in the 35-40% range. You took that bulk about 20kg too far.

You're probably around 21%, 7kg more *might* put you in the 15% range, hard to tell though until you actually do it, you may need to lose a bit more than that.

I actually started off with 84.2 kg 7.5 weeks ago, already lost almost 8kg. Thanks for your reply, I’ll keep working towards my goal and update here once i lose another 7kg!

I've been back working out after like almost 10yrs. and lots of beers for 4weeks. Figured I'd take a few pics. My starting morning weight was 191-192 and now 189-190.

Diet has been cleaned up (couldn't have been much worse) and staying at just under maint. with the exception of sometimes going slightly over on weekends when doing heavier compounds but also doing a lot more activity. Example I did full leg workout then walked 5 miles with the family in the afternoon.

My goal is eventually to get to 13-14% again, just seeing what you guys think I'm at now.

I'd say around 28-30%

Around 25% I think

Height: 6'0
Weight: 172
BF% (on scale): 20.8%

I'm in a cutting phase now and am aiming for 13-14%.
Two questions: What would you estimate my body fat% and how much should I cut down to achieve my bf% goal?

About 20% and assuming you lose no lean mass at all, you would have to drop to 160# to get between 13-14%.

Height: 183cm
Weight: 70kg

I've been skinny fat my whole life. Started working out a year ago and decided to bulk up but ended up just getting fat after like 2 months (88.5kg in the before pic). I didn't want to be in a limbo stage and I was tired of having a belly my whole life so I decided to just cut down and get skinny af so that I could set up a long clean bulk and not reach 20%+ BF again. I didn't lift through the whole diet and now I've gotten down pretty low for my height. I'm at a point where I see abs in good lighting but in regular lighting they're barely visible.

My weight is way lower than I thought I'd ever get to but looking at pics I still feel like I could lose more to set up a long clean bulk.. Or is my base now good enough and should I not bother trying to get any lower? I just have this small fear of bulking and getting back to looking how I used to. Also curious what my BF was in the before as well?

I would say around 14% but hard to tell if you've got a bit of loose skin or not

So I've gotten back to working out 12 weeks ago (after an 8 year hiatus), and my first aim was to lose fat through eating slightly below maintenance and resistance training.

[U]Day 1[/U]
70.3kg (155lbs)
Waist (at navel): 36"
Height: 173cm / 5'9"

[U]
Week 12[/U]
66.9kg (147lbs)
Waist (at navel): 33.75"

So a 3.4kg (7.5lbs) net loss, around 0.3kg (0.6lbs) per week - 0.5% per week I guess.

My plan is to get leaner so that I can slowly bulk without putting on too much fat as I know that trying to bulk whilst being at the higher end of bodyfat% will bias weight gain towards fat.

I'd like to get a bodyfat % estimate of where I started and where I am now after 12 weeks.

Thanks a lot!

Great job! It's hard to tell in the before but I would guess 17-19% and after around 11-12% great job! You are plenty lean to lean bulk but treat it with the same respect as cutting.

GREAT job man.

I'd say in the afters you're probably around 11-12%... I see an oblique vein popping through which is pretty rare unless you're almost to the 10% area.

[QUOTE=Junsuiakai;1620975101]I would guess 25% to 20ish% good job![/QUOTE]

Thanks! I'm aiming to get down to around 15% and then bulk slowly again, so I guess it's going to take me another 3-4 months.

Also, am I at a good place to start bulking?

hey what do you think my bf is. My inguinal definition has been much improved since September but i have been cutting very slowly and gained a lot of muscle from starting to lift again.

Hi all,

I've been on a cut since around 15 weeks ago. My back and arms seem quite defined but there still seems to be some fat lingering on my stomach.

My current weight: 134lbs
My height: 5 ' 6 feet

[QUOTE=faithbrah;1621052231]16-17%?[/QUOTE] Yeah that sounds about right. One of my friends said he thinks I'm around 15 but tend to hold a lot of fat on my belly.

Hey guys, I've just ended my cut as England is about to go into another lockdown so gyms will be closed. I plan to maintain and then start lean bulking when gyms re-open, unless I need to cut down any further?

My current stats are:

6'1, 83.2kg (183lbs), ~ 32" waist

Started my cut/recomp from 95kg (209lbs). What are your thoughts on where my BF is at?

Here are some pics taken this morning from varying angles. 5th pic is relaxed - [url]https://imgur.com/a/PwXMoBY[/url]
