Hi guys! I need your help
I’ve just posted some new photos in my bodyspace (fat albums).
I’ve been continuing cutting some weight and now I am 61kg 170 cm.
My body is ok now but my stomach.
Since I dirty bulked last year I have this fat on my stomach and I can’t get rid of it.
Especially when I bend (second photo)
Could you tell me my new body fat and if Now I’m starting a very slow bulking but I’d appreciate a body fat estimation
Thanks in advance

I'd say you're in the 10-15% BF area right now. I'd keep bulking for a few weeks and maybe do a one or two week mini cut mixed in just to keep your body on the guessing game.

I would say around 16 -17% as abs only just starting to become outlined. Losing fat from stomach area on men is usually the hardest. If you are lean bulking remember to monitor calories and only have a enough surplus to grow (200-300 calories above maintenance calories) 1-2lb per month, this will minimize fat gains.

Tad difficult but I would say about 13-14% as abs are limited in terms of visibility however you very solid defined back. So possibly a little bit lower.

About 15-16% as you only have some fat on your belly (where most men store it) it really is up to your own goals I don't think cutting down to 10% (aka the percentage on men for visible abs for most) will show much defined abs. However if you cut a bit more maybe to the 12-13% (should see some abs when flexed nicely) then start a long bulk that would be the best option in my opinion. That would allow you to see visible muscle gains when you start lean bulking.

About 18% as very little core is showing.

I would say you are about 9% maybe a touch lower seeing your weight is quite low, you have great V shape and clear outline of 6 pack, very impressive for your long bulk.
[QUOTE=Piranha89;1564069141]BF%? How many more weeks of cutting until I can slow bulk?[/QUOTE]
About 22%. In terms of weeks it is down to what you want as a physique. If you want to see the muscles you will be building you will need to cut to the 12-14% range before bulking, if you want clear strong abs it would be 10% about. If none of that is important and only building muscle (which are not defined) and strength is important you need to cut to 15-17% so on the safe side 10-12 weeks with 1-2 pounds lost per week is maintainable. Longer then 12 weeks if you want good definition. I would just cut fat until I am happy with my physique then lean bulk.

Looks like there is some activity on this thread now.
Would someone care to give me some feedback?

Great muscle amount I would say you are about 14-15% bf only really have fat on your belly, solid back. If you cut more I think you would have solid core there is some loose skin which may stop visible full six pack (lower abs) however a solid upper pack is clearly possible. The choice is really yours you could cut for some abs aiming for 10-12% bf and you would look rather ripped (take weight loss slowly to maintain muscle) maybe except lower abs or very slowly lean bulk for extra muscle which can aid in stretching loose skin either way is fine for you. Great work.

Very good weight lose. To be 15-17% more fat lose will be required its surprising how low your body weight will be at lower fat percentages so don't really worry about body weight too much keep going until you are happy with the mirror then slowly lean bulk with 1-2 lbs a month gained.

Finally got my hands on a decent quality - excuse the approach but no one was available to snap me. Just some regular flexing and just a day after 5000 meal. Pump/somewhat vascularity could be explained by hitting back earlier in the morning
5'10", 135 pounds (before the meal), 29 inch waist.

New pictures confirm to me what I thought earlier on your request around 10% maybe 9% as you are quite light weight wise. Unflexed pictures may help better estimate but not really important as you are already lean.

Yeah I was gonna say 8. What's the real answer?

Thanks, guys. I will take 9 as the answer. At the end of the day, it is a rough estimation! :-) 9% sounds like a decent starting place anyway.

where am I?
Appreciate all estimates of bf%! Currently 167 lbs, 6ft, 33 years old.
Had a three month cut, two weeks of a diet-break, easing back into it, and trying to decide whether I need to be cutting down more or not before I bulk. Thanks again.

About 14-15% as you can start to see the core outline. You could do either, if you dropped more fat you could do a longer bulk but I personally don't think its really worth it. I would say lean bulk gain some muscle and cut later after gaining some mass.

5’7 150 21yo I’ve been lifting for 7 months slightly under maintenance since. I’m currently doing 5/3/1 and my lifts are 210 bench, 125 ohp, 255 squat ( estimate since I haven’t tried to increase until my hip impingment clears up) and 275 dL.
What should I do next continue what I’m doing or move into a lean bulk/ or straight cut

[QUOTE=nc2211;1564231141]So the magical 10% remains ilusive:) wonder what I need to do to get there... is it just time?![/QUOTE]
Yet it is so close. I personally find aiming for a bf% is helpful but not a full picture as there is no way (except autopsy and we don't want to use that :-) ) to 100% predict bf. Not to mention I personally would prefer a solid flexible bf (between 11-15%) as long as I look good with visible abs unflexed that to me tells me that I have gained good solid muscle and can enjoy normal day day to life without forever worried about what I eat. So if you feel 10% is what you want then a few more pounds would have you touching it (should usually start to see lower abs) you clearly know what to do. If you are happy with how you look which I must say is a great physique its your choice to maintain or gain slowly and get bigger.

About 13-14% my guess you have the start of the top abs showing. You do lack a bit of muscle which may effect your look and will make estimates difficult, so going lower then 10% I would not recommend if you are planning to look defined, but of course the choice is yours.

You are about 20%. I would recommend cutting to about 13-15% then lean bulking. If you are still losing weight you can carry on cutting slightly under maintenance like a form of body recomp if not you will need to drop calories to lose more fat.

Thanks for your thoughts - so maybe lean bulk through March then cut down for summer?

Can you please estimate my Bf%?
I am 5' 7'', and I've been watching my weight the past week and it fluctuates between 152-154. I believe I may be categorized as "Skinny- fat"?
I am looking to build muscle and get leaner. Along with resistance training, where do I start? Cutting? Bulking? Or maintenance caloric intake? What would be a reasonable time period for either the cut/bulk/maintain?
Thanks!

6'2 170. Lost 40 pounds through cardio over the past year, and am curious on my bf%. Been lifting for about two months now, and I'm up 7 pounds from where I started. I have really neglected core though. If I were to grind core as much as everything else, would abs cut through, or do I need to lose a bit more fat?
