~25% is probably not too far off. Looks like you've got some decent LBM underneath.

Hi guys, I was just popping in to get a previous/current bodyfat % estimate

I apologize for the quality of the pics, I didn't really have a mirror where I was taking the pics (cheap college... ha)

I am 5'8" and currently 220 lbs, in the picture marked old, I was about 255-260.

I appreciate you taking your time to help me out, I wanna continue to lean out, but i would like to know (about) where I'm at, motivation purposes, seems like an endless journey, haha.



as for legs because you can't see in the picture, they aren't as fatty as all else, but on the inner thighs there's a..not huge but a noticeable amount of fat. sorry again for the picture quality.

Any guesses?

Edit: idk why pics didn't show up. They're in orig. post

How much bf % did I have here?
This was in 2012 around 15th October, I've gained a little bit of fat now, but it should be gone in about 1-2 weeks of proper diet. I think this is good for 17 years old, but I have bigger goals.

10%

about 17-18%

a bulk will do a lot more for you than a cut though, read this thread: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=148733753

Hey guys, Any guesses on my body fat %?

I started cleaning up my on my diet about a year ago and am now just getting more serious at the gym.
I've been reading the forum for months but just joined today-- time to get more involved.
My goal is to be in decent shape for the summer. Ideally, I would like to gain as much mass as I can--
while leaving time to cut down to 10% or so. Do you guys think I should keep cutting, or bulk?

Hight: 6'1''
Weight: 179lbs

I'm thinking between 12-14% Does that seem about right?

[MetalMulisha304]

Thanks man, I actually heard a term on tosh.o called "skinny fat" I thought of myself. ;o lmao

[dgainsuk]

14% sounds close.

[xxSingh]

6.1 feet, 87 Kilo. please estimate the bf%.

Also the pics are right after the workout, so probably i am pumped. just in case that matters.

[PKSebben]

about 14%, you are definitely done cutting for now

time to bulk hard!

Hey, longtime lurker but this is my first post. I'd really like to have someone guess my BF% cause I think my scale is quite a bit off. Unfortunately I need 50 posts I guess. Is there anyway around this? Can I pm the message to a mod or anything?

TIA

Cool thanks. I'll just copy and past what I originall wrote:

Hi, this is my first post, longtime lurker. Would appreciate a rough guess of BF %. I'm using a scale now but I think it's not accurate. A little about me, I'm a natural ecto, and have been bulking for almost three months, gained 15 lbs, trying to do it clean, but not too worried about the fat, when I turn it around and begin the cut, it's going to melt off, that's just how my body is. This bulking thing is hard as hell though lol. I can't remember the last time I was actually hungry, I need to forcefeed myself. Anyways, here is where I am now:

The first two are taken yesterday. The other two are me in my "natural" state (i.e. skinny lol) about two months ago when I started the bulk. I wasn't working out much, just normal army stuff. I was about 180 then, and the scale said I was about 21% (which again, I think seems kind of high). Any educated guesses would be appreciate tks

edit: the order got mixed up, but you can tell which is which...the two ones from before I started the bulk I'm wearing jeans. The other two I'm not and looking noticably doughier lol

Hi your body fat seems to me it is about 13-15 range not 17. We are in the same boat when I opened a thread to ask cut or bulk you replied me I remembered from your nick. Anyways I think if you have carried excess fat in your whole life and it is hard for your skin tighten up so fast. And I think you might have a bit lower stomach fat. In this case I think best to do is to get the body fat checked. Since distinguishing the loose skin and fat is not easy especially for the ones who had carried an excess fat for a long time.

I am 5' 7" and currently weight 170lbs. The first 3 pics are before pictures (187lbs) and the last 3 are current pictures. My before pics are all relaxed and my after pics are front relaxed, side flexed and back flexed.
Whats my bf% before and after?
The before pics were taken 4 months ago.
Thanks in advance to who reply.
