    Please Guess my Body Fat Percentage

    I was on my last week of PCT (6 wks).
    My current stats are: 36 yo, 6'2 feet, 212 lbs

    Take into account that the daily 20 iu (averaged) of HGH I have been using since a week gave me some spread-out bloat (in some late afternoon pics).

    I will undergo a DEXA soon to have correct numbers.
    Thank you and be outspoken.

    Similar to me, I'd say about 8-9%.

    Yeh DEXA is be all to end all. Does your DEXA also measure the difference between water and everything else? Most algorithms only calculate bone, muscle and fat.

    do you mean by that if the dexa is able to extrapolate the water data itself?

    Yeah about 10. Abs are a bit hidden when not flexing, but great separation and vascular arms. Looks good!

    The abs being hidden could be from a big glass of water 5 minutes before the pictures so take that comment for what its worth.

    Yes.

    When i get my dexa results, i get bone mineral density, fat mass, muscle mass (fat free mass). I read about new dexa machines (I'm guessing same machine, new programing algorithm) to determine water mass as well, so one can separate it from muscle mass.

    I know they got new machines but do not know if related to those exams.

    I let you know when I will go.

    That would be good. I need to go in the next few weeks and inquire as well.

    It would be god to know, especially when bloated on cycle, and as you are on hGH.

    That aside, you are looking good BJJ, that suspension cycle really did work well. And the amount of work you put into recording and documenting it, you are a real scholar. Seriously, great effort!

    I'm in accord with the rest of the posts. So what are your goals now? Slim/Slender with a solid foundation. Perhaps a bulk soon? Maintain?
