    Hi guys. Posted a few days back. Waiting for an estimate . Would really appreciate that.

    Pics uploaded titles starting from June 22 2021 in progress pictures.
    Since last time Cut some more. Lost 2.5 more kgs.

    Got DeXa done as well which came out as 7.6 percent but would rather get an estimate here.

    In any case this is the end of my cut. It isn't hunger but sleep deprivation that has me end of my ropes. Can't sleep for ****. Wake up 3 4 hours into the sleep everyday for few weeks now.

    Anyway would rep and appreciate an estimate. All Pics first thing in morning ( if u can call 4am morning lol) with no pump but trying to flex which I don't even know how to do especially with abs

    Hi!

    I’m 21, 5’10” and 155 lbs. I’ve down about 10 lbs from when posted in April and was 165 and 25% bf. I am not flexing in my latest pictures (except for the one labeled as such), which were taken after a meal. I’m definitely looking to put on some size but wanted to see where I’m currently at. Thanks! Pics are in body space.

    Please could someone estimate my bf% for me? I'm 5'10, 196lbs down from 224 at the start of Feb. Measurements and a calculator estimate around 27% but I understand they're not really that accurate. Definitely losing fat as I'm getting more definition everywhere, maybe even building a little muscle? Been in the gym since mid April when they opened back up.

    its a little surprising to experience pronounced sleep problems at 10-11% as that generally happen at lower BFs but what to do.
    Stopped cutting after posting the last pictures. up 1 KG . maybe will be back in an year after a bulk/cut cycle to see if anything is different

    Around February, I made a post here asking what was my body fat percentage based on my pics in body space (they are still there if you want to compare them to my newest ones).

    I was told to do a recomp as my estimated body fat percentage was around 21% and I was new to weight lifting. However, my Fierce 5 program got to a point where I needed to eat a bit more instead in order for my plates in the gym to go up.

    My height is 5"10, I'm 21 years old, and back in February I was 165lbs and now I'm currently 167lbs.

    I'm unsure if I should cut or just continually and slowly go up in weight.

    Pics in body space (of course).

    Looks like about 20%. How did your lifts progress since February?

    Since May 29th I've gained 2 lbs.
    Now at 131 lbs 5 foot 5.
    Hopefully- a good bit of it had been muscle?
    I definitely shifted to a clean gains mode based on advice given here.
    Ive gotten a lot stronger, I now bench 155 and can do 3 sets of 6 clean pullups unassisted.
    Doing well also with dips.
    Wondering where I'm at now.

    They've progressed in a somewhat slow but steadily manner. There have been a few days (and weeks) were some of these exercises halted in progress and I had to go back and re-set them multiple times until I figured out it was due to: not eating enough, bad form and losing track in what weights I needed to complete in my next session.

    I'm going to guess what my weights in the gym were back on February because I lost a few months worth of recorded weight data because I acquired a new cellphone.

    From February (guessing) to July (currently recorded), my weight progress is:

    Squat: 85lbs --> 165lbs
    Bench: 65lbs --> 139.4lbs
    Pendlay Row: 65lbs --> 105lbs
    Face Pull: 10lbs --> 90lbs
    Triceps: 10lbs --> 60lbs
    Calf Raises: 30lbs --> 90lbs

    Front Squat: 55lbs --> 155lbs
    Overhead: 55lbs --> 105lbs
    Romanian Deadlift: 65lbs --> 160lbs
    Lat: 10lbs --> 100lbs
    Abs (Crunches): 5lbs --> 45lbs
    Biceps: 5lbs --> 17.5lbs

    I've also had to switch to three different gyms and try out different weight plates and sometimes deload.

    I also looked through the forums and saw that some of these exercises take a much longer time to make progress in compared to other ones (for example: you can make more progress with squats compared to overhead presses).

    I was thinking about just keeping my bf% the same until a reach a certain amount of weight in my exercises before deciding to cut down (and also to keep making newbie gains as long as I possibly can).

    But at this point, I would honestly would take any advice.

    Hard to tell with small changes but if anything you look slightly leaner. Keep up the good work, you are bulking at a good and disciplined rate and your strength is going up which is a great sign. I also track my waist measurement when bulking and if my waist goes up like 0.5-1 inches (measured by a moving average) I diet it off quickly.

    I'm going to guess what my weights in the gym were back on February because I lost a few months worth of recorded weight data because I acquired a new cellphone.

    From February (guessing) to July (currently recorded), my weight progress is:

    Squat: 85lbs --> 165lbs
    Bench: 65lbs --> 139.4lbs
    Pendlay Row: 65lbs --> 105lbs
    Face Pull: 10lbs --> 90lbs
    Triceps: 10lbs --> 60lbs
    Calf Raises: 30lbs --> 90lbs

    Front Squat: 55lbs --> 155lbs
    Overhead: 55lbs --> 105lbs
    Romanian Deadlift: 65lbs --> 160lbs
    Lat: 10lbs --> 100lbs
    Abs (Crunches): 5lbs --> 45lbs
    Biceps: 5lbs --> 17.5lbs

    I've also had to switch to three different gyms and try out different weight plates and sometimes deload.

    I also looked through the forums and saw that some of these exercises take a much longer time to make progress in compared to other ones (for example: you can make more progress with squats compared to overhead presses).

    I was thinking about just keeping my bf% the same until a reach a certain amount of weight in my exercises before deciding to cut down (and also to keep making newbie gains as long as I possibly can).

    But at this point, I would honestly would take any advice.
    I think you are doing well. Keeping the same BF and increasing your weight and then cutting when you have a better base sounds good. Beware your waist measurement though, if that is going up quickly you are gaining too much fat.

    18-19% would be my guess. A side shot would help, if there’s more belly fat than I think your BF may be higher

    Thank you for the response!

    I haven't done waist measurements before but I heard that measurements (waist, scale, and calipers) can be off due to water stored in your body, the different foods you've may have eaten and etc.

    How would I know if my waist measurements are correct? Should I rely on the mirror instead since I heard that's a great way to see your overall body fat?

    If you take your waist measurement every morning and track it over time, you can watch the trend. Doing this will take care of the noise problem as noise cannot explain the measurement trending up over time. The bias in your tracking will remain constant as long as you are measuring in the same way every time (e.g. at the navel) so the trend is a reliable measure of fat gain. If it is trending up quickly you are gaining fat, if the trend is flat you are essentially pulling off a perfect lean bulk.

    Probably it will slowly increase but you could for instance use a rule of thumb like whenever your waist increases by 1 inch you diet that 1 inch off back to your baseline waist measurement. Your weight should be higher when that inch is off and then you will know you have gained some good muscle mass.

    And if your weight is higher and your waist is back to baseline, your BF% will be lower!

    12-15%
    I'd do a bulk with a calorie surplus of 500-800 and if you notice fat gain cut the surplus back some.
