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

[QUOTE=RoyalSlop;1519193931]I'm 21 years old, 5'11 and 181lbs as of this morning. Whats the verdict? I started at the end of june at 215lbs. My goal is to hit 10% before i start a bulk. This picture was taken about an hour after my breakfast[/QUOTE]

Around 15%- could be a touch less. I'd reckon you'll reach your goal around 170.

What's my estimate BF percentage? I took hydrostatic test today and was 6.8%. Calipers yield 10.5%. Gotta have a lot of bloat?

[QUOTE=oneworld82;1519200441]What's my estimate BF percentage? I took hydrostatic test today and was 6.8%. Calipers yield 10.5%. Gotta have a lot of bloat?[/QUOTE]6.8 is not close. Neither is 10.5. Maybe those two numbers added together... are you currently lifting?

[QUOTE=oneworld82;1519200441]What's my estimate BF percentage? I took hydrostatic test today and was 6.8%. Calipers yield 10.5%. Gotta have a lot of bloat?[/QUOTE]

16-17%

[QUOTE=CommitmentRulz;1519201311]6.8 is not close. Neither is 10.5. Maybe those two numbers added together... are you currently lifting?[/QUOTE]

I am - started around 2 months ago. I find it hard to believe the hydrostatic test could be THAT much off?!

Could you please estimate my body fat percentage?

[QUOTE=moojeni;1519205881]Could you please estimate my body fat percentage?[/QUOTE]

About 13-14% A bit hard to tell with the lighting.

Don't use the Jackson-Pollock caliper method. It underestimates significantly. Try Durnin-Womersley instead which I find fantastic.

I see you at around 16% BF.

160lb , 22 years old, 6'0

should i continue to cut ?

Will rep first few responses, haven't been on the forum on a while!


wk1 = 178 lbs, 5'10"
wk2 = 171 lbs, height stayed same !

And currently sitting around 165 lbs but still not as lean as I would like, still feel like I look the same as the 2nd picture despite losing an inch or two in waist measurement. Feel like some of it may be due to water retention and diet screwing with my head but I'm not too sure. How much would you estimate I have to lose to be 8-10% bf or just generally lean, wanna be aesthetic for once in my life instead of a fat fuk.

Nah man you are FAR from fat don't be too critical of yourself! I'd say round midteens ish maybe slightly higher tho for bf

[QUOTE=Partyrocking;1518966971]18-19% looks about right.



About 15%



About 27% right now. Was a couple of points higher in the pics from 3 weeks ago.[/QUOTE]

Ok cheers. I guess dropping 10 lbs would put me at 12%? Want to get as lean as possible before starting long term bulk

Maybe 15% Hard to tell w/ the phone in the way. I would not cut down to 8-10%. You don't have enough mass for that yet; you'll just be scrawny.

[QUOTE=OhMyGodd;1519254851]Ok cheers. I guess dropping 10 lbs would put me at 12%? Want to get as lean as possible before starting long term bulk[/QUOTE]

You don't have much to cut down to. I'd probably lean bulk for a while and then cut.

Great job so far.

Don't see much loose skin. You'll better be able to tell when you get the last bit of fat off.

My bodyfat% and how much more to lose till 6 packs.? Will do a long lean bulk after that

[QUOTE=Billionares;1519541781]My bodyfat% and how much more to lose till 6 packs.? Will do a long lean bulk after that[/QUOTE]

About 17%. Would need to know your weight to answer your other question.

[QUOTE=Partyrocking;1519549061]About 17%. Would need to know your weight to answer your other question.[/QUOTE]
Oh sorry. Its 153 pounds at "6ft". 19 yrs old.
i started to cut after a long bulk (1.5yrs).. Went from 164 to 153 lbs (Current weight) during the cut (2 months in).
Measurements: Waist went from 34 to 30, Biceps from 14.5 to 14.2. I can feel my abs by hand, all the lines between.

You'll need to get to 10-12% bf to have a six pack, and I wouldn't cut that low until you have more muscle. You'll just look scrawny.

Cut another 5lbs, then lean bulk and cut again. The second time around, you should be able to reach 10-12% and have more to show for it.

Hey guys, been cutting awhile and down to roughly 230lbs at 6'3". Just wondering if anyone can estimate where my bf is at. I was thinking maybe 5-10 more lbs to go. One day I'll be able to go for a DEXA but until then just gotta make do. Thanks for your time.

Hi

I started off on April 20th at 110 kg (242) pounds and i now weigh 87 kg ( 192) pounds.. so about 50 pounds lost in 5 months

Looking for a BF estimate and guidance on how to get down to 11-12% BF by the end of the year, if possible.

I maintain a strict caloric deficit of 1000 kcal/day. Eat low carbs low fats and high protein.

Workout: 4 days weight training ( Back+ Bi, Chest+Tri, Legs, Shoulders+core)
2 days HIIT circuits and Cardio

Supplementation (started about 2 months back): Fish oil, Whey, Vitamin D and Vitamin B ONLY

any guidance will be much appreciated

25-27% body fat. You have another 30lbs to go before you're 11-12% bf.

[QUOTE=Partyrocking;1519977711]25-27% body fat. You have another 30lbs to go before you're 11-12% bf.[/QUOTE]

Thank you for the prompt reply.. That is fairly close to what i was estimating.. I was thinking 23-25% and maybe 27 lbs to go

ive lost 10 pounds a month uptil now.. is that something i can maintain by being fastidious about my diet and exercise?

any tips on how to maintain the maximum lean mass while continuing this cut?

As you get lighter, your TDEE will go down. This means your weight of rate loss will go down as well unless you continue to drop calories.

For retaining LBM:
Make sure you're eating enough protein (at least .7g/lb) and fat (.4g/lb)
Keep lifting
Aim to lose about 1% body weight a week- slower is fine.

Yep im aware of the decrease in TDEE and so far i have been able to account for it and keep it in check by increasing intensity of workouts and decreasing calories incrementally.

Im hitting the numbers on the protein intake as well, though not nearly on the fat intake.

Lifting is going on and i change my routine whenever progress on the lifts stalls.

"1% or slower" so ideally u would advise against trying to drop the 30 odd pounds by 31st dec? or is that on okay-ish target?

i am really really greatful to u for the input btw.. it helps a lot!

If you keep your weight loss at 1% per week, you can lose about 26lbs by the end of the year.

You can lose weight faster if you like, but the chance of losing muscle will increase a bit.
