    Are these calculations right?

    If I weigh 175 pounds and my bf is work case 19%

    175 x 0.19 = 33.25 pounds of fat

    175 - 33.25 = 141.75 lean weight

    So if i wanna be 12% bf i would be weighing in at 158.77 pounds?

    Ur maths is correct but the human body does not work like a calculator

    If you were to diet you would loose water weight as well as maybe a little muscle.

    Dont worry about numbers tho, just focus on bringing that BF down and u will look better

    Its hard avoid, just gotta keep at bro. I'd rather drop fat and loss of minute muscle mass then stay bulky with a gut, no definition. It takes time to get to what you want, good luck azizi
