    Close to 20%. You look like you have a good base, so I think all you need to work on at this point is getting that bodyfat down. You'll look sick when you're all cut up.

    I dont think he's that high.
    If you provide me your measurements, I can calculate your bf for you.

    height
    neck size
    waist (at naval)

    He's at least 18%, unless he's holding a ton of water, which is very possible. What you're asking him to do is hardly going to provide an accurate bodyfat measurement. It'll be about as accurate as making an educated guess from looking at his pic...

    Shorts are pulled up a bit high but he looks pretty flat (stomach) with no extreme love handles, also he looks pretty vascular.

    Agreed that no bf testing is perfect but I think the military tape test calculation is proven to provide pretty consistent results.

    Military tape calcs would be the one of the last ways I would ever go about measuring bodyfat percentages. Especially if it were on someone who weight trained.

    Agreed, i'd KILL to have his size!

    FG/Matt - when you get time, can you check my cutting thread in the diet section? Just looking for your opinions/feedback - new pics posted yesterday.

    Kiki, sorry for the hijack bro!

    Without knowing his ht/wt, seeing a back shot and a leg shot, and a front shot where his shorts arent pulled up over his obliques I couldnt give an accurate guess. But....if I had to I would say around 18%.

    19%, work on your upper and inner chest, no back or leg shots so I can't guess beyond that. Well, none that are showing on the thread on my computer at this time, anyway. Very nice base. Post ht/wt/age, please.

    Nah, in all honesty the ranges have already been quoted. You're fat in terms of bodybuiding and average in terms of the human population.

    My question (and it was mentioned) - do you curl more than anything else? I've never seen such arm vasculatiry for someone as heavy as yourself.....it's a good thing.....you'll be sliced once you lose the fat. Good genetics.

    I do curl yea. Both sides of my family are vascular though, even if they are very overweight.

    I'm trying bro.

    I've always put in 110% on chest day, and i'm unhappy with the results.

    I got abs, just covered with a little bit of fat and water I think, still gonna keep working on em though.

    Coming down nicely, hard to tell from just one picture but looks like you may be gyno prone. I would keep an eye on it.
