What body fat % am I?

[MikeShlort]

I would say 16-18%. And don't touch aas for atleast 2-3yrs of hard training and dieting.

Why not? Will the 2-3 years of hard training and dieting protect my balls more?

No. It's because you have little muscle development, very little with no definition. Honestly, It doesn't look like you train at all. Build naturally for a while. And have yourself a cheeseburger, kiddo

Hope you're not offended, not the intent.

No not at all. Believe it or not, I have been lifting for almost 3 years. Just off the cusp of a lazy 3-4 months. I sometimes see myself lifting as heavy or heavier with better form than guys who look pretty fit. But for the most part, the guys who look jacked lift way heavier than I can. Or the guys who are 90 lbs heavier than me with wrists the size of my forearm.

I already bought the stuff so I'm basically going to wait until a) I lose more fat and b) I am strong enough that my joints won't get destroyed. I'm guessing 3-4 months.

I'll put up a pic 3 months from now and see what you guys think.

You don't need to lose anymore fat. If you were bigger in the past, then you should gain fairly quickly with a decent diet. It won't take long. So I would go with plan b, as you outlined above.

1. Post your diet in the nutrition section for critique. Include stats and goals.
2. Visit "Marcus' Diary" in the lounge for training critique.

Forget the "Jacked" guys at the gym. Most of them are dingbats anyway.

Thanks, good advice.

Some of those guys, I really admire. I've met a few who are so single minded, so unapologetic and coarse it's a beautiful thing. I respect them far more than poseurs, people who are disingenuous in their interactions with others, usually to reach a higher social level. To meet someone who is so confident in themselves they don't worry about letting people know what they think of them, well, I have no choice but to respect that.
