Bodyfat guesses?

**CoRnErBaCk24** · 11-07-2012, 06:47 AM

Haven't lifted in about 7 years but was die hard for 5 years prior to that. I would say I kept a good amount of muscle. Currently in the process of dieting down trying to get bodyfat in the low teens. Any guesses on my bodyfat now? Also comments, questions, pretty much any feedback is welcome!

@ or just over 30%.

**CoRnErBaCk24** · 11-07-2012, 06:59 AM

30%?! Damn I figured it'd be high but didn't think that high! I only have fat in my midsection/lower chest area. My arms are pretty tight and I can still see separation in my quads.

**austinite** · 11-07-2012, 07:11 AM

Well, cant see the back and legs, which can hold a ton of fat. You're also 5' 7" and 220.

Your arms might feel tight bro, but you're holding plenty there, too.

I apologize if any of this sounded harsh. It's not easy hearing things like this. But you'll be fine. I was at 36%

Just stay focused.

**CoRnErBaCk24** · 11-07-2012, 07:44 AM

It's all good, any criticism is welcome. I did take 7 years off smh!

**< <Samson> >** · 11-07-2012, 08:17 AM

30+ but legs and back would say a little more. Damn fat, it gets us all.

Yeah I agree with others 30+

**Lunk1** · 11-07-2012, 12:29 PM

Yup..30-36% but you are in the right place. I have gone from 280 to 234 with some great advice from here!

**fit2bOld** · 11-07-2012, 05:38 PM

Just about 34%

**kelkel** · 11-07-2012, 07:25 PM

Hard to give an exact number id guess 25-28% hows your diet and cardio regime

**gbrice75** · 02-14-2013, 10:42 AM

The pics are kinda dark, but the legs appear to look pretty good. I'm with the others, high 20's to low 30's. Probably right around 30. Just keep at it bro, I was around 35% 4 years ago.

You've definetly made some progress, but you could do better. I know we all don't have the time for this, but if you really want a full body recomposition do some fasted morning cardio just a steady pace HR 140-160 30-45min and then do some weight training later in the day or night. If you can't do this everyday, just do it every other day. If you can manage to do this you'll be amazed at how fast you can change your body with a clean diet.

Have you checked what your TDEE is?

**CoRnErBaCk24** · 08-04-2013, 12:24 AM

Nice work. Keep it going. You're probably around 20 now, maybe a little less.

**slfmade** · 08-04-2013, 07:47 AM

Nice work. Keep it up!!

**Giggle** · 08-04-2013, 08:10 AM

Nice work there. It really shows. Looks like your waist came down by a number of inches, and pant sizes!

**RipOwens** · 08-04-2013, 08:36 AM

Now sh*t's happening! Great stuff!

**CoRnErBaCk24** · 08-04-2013, 01:48 PM

Thanks a lot guys, I'm still working!

**< <Samson> >** · 08-04-2013, 09:16 PM

Hell of a change

No sauce?

**CoRnErBaCk24** · 08-05-2013, 05:41 AM

No sauce, saving that until I get around 12%. Even then I'm still not sure if I wanna go that route. Wanna keep my weight in the 175-180 range. Plan to do some competing in the future.

**CoRnErBaCk24** · 08-14-2013, 11:00 PM

Another one, 10 days later...
