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

[QUOTE=faithbrah;1617733401]5'7, 143 lbs, went from 180 to 143 in about six months

i think the before pics are 27-29% (at least that's what i've been saying in some of my posts)

after pics maybe 15%? anyone want to confirm? i want to be able to finally say i've hit 15% lol before you were maybe 21% max



i guess it's time to start gaining mass again, does this sound like a good plan?

1. eat in a 100 calorie deficit for a few weeks, see if i can squeeze out any gains (probably not but it's worth a shot)
2. increase calories by 200 (basically between maintenance and a very slight surplus), keep eating like that as long as i'm making progress
3. after milking my fat-free gains, finally transition to a 200-250 surplus
4. start cutting again in may (this is enough time to make decent progress, right?)

also, thoughts on my cut progress overall? yay or nay?[/QUOTE] awesome you cut so much but sadly I think you lost a lot of size. Do a slower cut and keep your intensity up when working out next time. I would say you are around 15% lose 10more lbs to get your v taper to pop but shoot for no more than 1lb a week.

I think you were no higher than 21% in before pic

[QUOTE=Junsuiakai;1617836751]I think you were no higher than 21% in before pic[/QUOTE]maybe the before pic is deceiving, i'm absolutely sure i was 25-30%... wouldn't really make sense to go from 21% to 15% in half a year while losing 40 lbs, would it? my strength went down a bit, but nothing too bad

thanks for replying, been waiting for someone to reply for two days lol

Hi Guys,

Would be grateful for some feedback, pictures are in my bodyspace gallery. How far should I cut?

Age : 29
Height : 5ft 10

Aim to lose 30lbs I would say you are 25% at least. Good luck bro.

Advice is appreciated, trying to slim down. Been on a calorie deficit for a while now, about 1500 cals a day. 140g protein atleast. Haven't been doing any weight lifting, apprehensive about going to the gym currently, I get about 10,000 steps a day.

I am 5 Feet 9 Inches (175 cm)
137 LB (62kg)

Sorry I missed this. I would actually say your "before" is in the 23-25% zone, and after you're in the 13-14% range. Nice job dude. You're in a good spot if you want to start lean bulking, keep it to 1-2 lbs per month.

You need to stop cutting if you're not currently strength training, you're just going to hurt your physique even more. You're carrying a lot of fat and have little to no muscle, and whatever muscle you do have you risk affecting by being in a deficit without appropriate strength training. You're over 20% bodyfat, its time to start throwing around some weights.

I think you should talk to a therapist if you feel like you need to lose weight... I'm 5'9 and 160lbs and I feel like I couldn't survive at 150lb lol

You are in a dangerous place. My brother had an eating disorder and well he isnt here anymore... either take squids advice or see a therapist if you seriously consider dropping more weight.

I have some recent progress pictures in my bodyspace. Interested in an estimate BF. I'm thinking about 20%. I'm currently cutting to try and get down to 170ish lbs then going to try and stick around that and build muscle for a while. Sorry but my front view one might be hard to read because I was flexing.

I would guess you are around 17%ish. Sure losing 8lbs of only fat might put you in a good spot to bulk.

Keep your intensity high and focus on your macros also get plenty of activity outside of working out.

Thank you. I intend to bulk in the future but I just wanted to try and finally get a six pack if possible. Been a goal of mine for a while now and I usually try to get close and give up then dirty bulk.

Bodyfat % estimations please for the latest update on the right?

[QUOTE=RandyMcFlab;1618012861]Bodyfat % estimations please for the latest update on the right?[/QUOTE]great job on weight loss so far! I have no idea what bf% you are and it probably doesnt make too much of a difference to focus on that number.

Just keep doing what you are doing and make sure you are strength training! Kill it bro! Gl

Thanks Junsuiakai! it was merely a curiosity really, was told over 50% for the first 2 pics and i hope the new one is under than number! does not matter either way though. Will certainly keep at it !

[QUOTE=RandyMcFlab;1618012861]Bodyfat % estimations please for the latest update on the right?[/QUOTE]

Was 50%+, now 40%+ (probably about 43%ish)

pleased with that! will aim to get sub 38% in the next 12 weeks.

511.5 180lbs. Lookin for an estimate(pic in body space) Will try to put more pics up later. Thanks!

14-15% would be my estimate. Good chest size to start

Hi, I deleted my previous post and decided to repost it because I wanted to make it easier by attaching my current pics in the thread. That way you all don't have to go digging through my profile and reading dates on my pics to figure out which ones are current. Since January I've lost about 42 lbs, mostly through cardio. I only started strength training a few months ago as an add on to my cardio because I felt myself getting a lot weaker.

I'm curious what my BF% is so I can mathematically set an appropriate weight goal to switch from cut to maintain, then ultimately bulk. I am guessing my goal should be 170-175lbs, but I have no idea really. Any help would be appreciated. Most of my fat seems to stay in my stomach and rear flank area. My legs seem to be lacking a lot of fat, but I am not really sure how to tell. I do feel like my BF is lower than a lot of people at my height/weight based on pics I've found.

Age: 38
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 188lbs

Thanks all!
