Can we have BF% thread?
Pic related, me. 5'9", down to 155 from 187. I think my fat distribution is kinda shit. Should I lean down more before bulking?
you should work out, dont worry about a bulk or cut yet your body is not there yet m8, good luck
>>37126304
thanks m8
>>37125275
cut another 5-10 pounds although stop if it gets hard since at your level there's basically no reason to push yourself to a bf% that takes special effort
then bulk up to 160 very very slowly
ezpz
Should i cut abit or bulk from now ?
Also bf% estimate?
>>37127200
You look hungry. Please bulk now.
>>37127371
Should i bulk and exercise at the same time ?
>>37127200
Definitely cut. You're way too high bf (23%)
>>37127764
yes, otherwise there's literally no point to bulking
you bulk so you can gain muscle mass
also bf% <10
>>37125275
bf% doesnt atter until you start lifting. You're 23%+. start running
>>37126689
this is bait
>>37127200
bulk, buy some protein powder and start lifting. Gonna take a while.
>>37127764
>bulk and exercise at the same time
wtf. If you're saying lift and do cardio at the same time, then focus on lifting. Go extremely light on the cardio, if any, because you're so skinny.. but cardio is still good for the heart. you're going to have to eat a SHIT TON bro, I'm talking 5000 calories a day of chicken, rice, veggies, fruits, pastas, etc if you wanna make any good gains. Keep at it, gonna take a while. You won't see results for months
>>37127797
OP here. I already am.
>>37127815
Just keep cutting and start lifting weights. Don't bulk, at all. Lift and do HIIT and regular cardio every day for 1-2 hours until you lower your bf%. If you bulk, you're just going to get obese.
>>37127790
This. Cut
god damn i know ive posted everywhere in the past three days, but this is the last time.
I'm going to guess around 12-10%?
>>37127892
Yep, around that.
>>37127892
you look great why the fuck does it matter? you're probably at 10%, and look better than everyone you meet yet still dont have a gf
>>37127797
5000 calories a day ?
fuck me.. any good diet plan you can suggest?
>>37127892
10 I'd say
My guess is 15% (5'8" 160lb). Also: keep bulking, or cut to 12% now?
>>37127892
10% for sure - good work
I've only trained rugby casually 3 times a week for a couple of years. Also eaten donuts, candy and all kinds of junk food. Going for alot more strength and maybe some nice nice muscles now, I don't want to look like some "meh" built guy anymore. I'm thinking of cutting and doing the Rippetoe's starting strength program. Would this be a good start?
Thanks!
>>37127892
Around 10-11.
Keep posting. :^)

Been lifting for a bit over 1.5 years now.
If you have been lifting for less than a year there is no point to bulking or cutting lol. Just eat a protein rich diet at your tdee and do heavy compound lifts
>>37128571
Yeah I really shouldn't cut then haha, but I feel like it might be good to lose a bit of weight before starting. I'm currently 1.90 cm tall and weigh about 87 kilos. Maybe get that down to like 82ish? Or just skip that shit and get straight to the lifting.
>>37127917
Well you're not wrong

>>37130178
A great body means nothing desu, if you're socially retarded.
Not meant at the dude you quoted, just a general remark.
>>37130178
I don't have a gf because I'm extremely picky. Also I don't have regular sex because it doesn't interest me as well as religious reasons. Just work your way up and pussy will come to you, just not the gf type most of the time.
170 lbs, 5'11 manlet. Down 10 lbs since March. I don't feel like I should cut anymore but still have a gut and chest fat.
Being skinny fat is worse than all nine circles of hell combined.

Trying to be lean for the summer how much more should I cut?
115kg to 80kg
I have loose skin sorry for the stupid pose
>>37133293
5 pounds maybe? Still look gucci but if you want to have defined abs yea 5 pounds
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihl6zMwuWZg
I'm guessing 9-11?
>>37133544
Great work. I've seen your pic before again and it's one that inspires me.
How long did it take you to get down to your lowest weight and how long after you started did people start asking "hey are you losing weight?"
>>37133293
How long have you been lifting? I feel like your body type is very similar to mine.
>>37133667
I really rushed things on my way down.
>Feb:115kg
>Aug:100-110kg (binged a fair amount)
>January:75kg (started lifting, broke up with gf)
>mid-April:83kg
>mid-May:80kg
When i was at my lightest in January i had 0 muscle mass from cutting way too hard.
Remember to take it easy on your cut. 25% deficit no greater.
good luck anon im glad i inspired somebody.
>>37133667
>>37133790
forgot to answer your question, people noticed my weight loss as soon as i lost ~10kg.
In december alot of people thought i had an eating disorder due to the immense difference lol.
pic related me in January
13-15?
>>37133826
it doesn't matter keep lifting and bulking
>>37133869
that was actually a pic of me in the morning after like 12 hours of no eating. Usually I look bigger, tryna cut also
>>37127200
I'm honestly curious what you'd put this guy at.
my body looks pretty similar
measurements have put me between 7.5 and 15. totally not helpful
>>37133881
Why are you trying to cut, you'll go from looking like you have some muscle to looking like a hungry skelly.
>>37133924
started at 128 at night, tryna cut to 120 at night. Currently at 125. Pic is at probably 118. Cutting at 2700 cals also
>>37133939
LBS? WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU CUTTING AT ANYTHING UNDER 150?!
>>37133767
Seriously about 3 years I started really fat
>>37133945
I'm a 5'5" manlet
>>37133939
you're retarded stop cutting.
>>37133946
Nice work man! Hopefully I'll look like you in a year or two. I've been at it for
>>37133972
6 months so far and have made some nice progress.
>>37130178
Having a great body just means you won't have any hangups regarding your physique. It's worth it, even if you suck with women at least you don't have that additional factor looming over your head.

I saw that before I replied to you, you're still a retard. Stop fucking cutting. You'll look like you're straight out of Auschwitz if you don't.
>>37128542
How is your bench press such shit compared to everything else? Either your form on everything is ass, inflating the numbers, or you need to work on you bench press form.
>>37134018
the pic is after a 12 hour fast; in reality I look a lot bigger. Think an thin layer of fat over my abs, an extra inch or two on my biceps, and slightly larger chest
>>37133997
bulk to 145 at least
>>37134050
I wanna get down to like 11 ish % bf, then lean bulk. I never want to be fat again. Can anyone give me an actual estimate as to my bf tho?
>>37134069
I think 13 or 14. But you should bulk, your arms look skinny as fuck and you have no side delts
>>37134039
>>37134069
Kill yourself. 3 people have told you to stop cutting but instead you refuse to listen to us and just want to live in your fantasy world where getting to 11% bodyfat is normal and easily attainable. You don't have enough muscle for anyone to accurately estimate your body fat in the shitty pic that you showed us from a '12 hour fast'. Do you think you gain and lose 5lbs of fat throughout the day? The only difference is the amount of water in your body which makes little to no difference.
Now if you still want to cut consider seeing a mental health professional because you have something very wrong with your brain.
>>37134090
alright, thanks. Delts, you're right... arms look skinny in this picture but are actually a lot bigger. Forearms need work though yeah
Lighting is kinda good but it's the only light in my apartment. Flexed. 146 lb, 5'10''
Trying to go for a decent otter for summer. 12% here maybe? What do you think?
>>37130369
Definitely start a serious lifting routine and keep cutting until you can see some abs, You don't have to go full hungry skellington but just enough so you can bulk again and not look like a fat piece of shit.
6ft 170lbs. Use to be 250lbs, pls no bully.

I climb for sport, no lifting, chinups/wide/narrow, push ups + abdominal workout from youtube 8 min.

Some goddamn push ups and pull ups, maybe squat something
>>37137994
Call me retarded but before I started I was sedentary for years and never did sports growing up so no prior muscle to work with and have only just started lifting
I'm guessing I'm around 12ish.
>>37138011
Well I started you with body weight workouts. Not weights. Start swimming too.
>>37138087
You're like 20% and 5'7 lol

That's closer to 11%
This is DEXA confirmed 12%

>>37138154
I'm 5'5 and I weigh about 142. I've been lifting for about a year and a few months now. I can't do much about my height, but there's nothing to stop me from getting stronger.

Yes.
>>37127892
Man /fit/ is so delusional it fucking hurts. You are probably around 6%. Definitely below 8%. A sign that you are below 8% is the vascularity of abs which you have. Also you have a clear line beween your straight abs (sixpack) and your obliques.
Pro tip: buy a goddamn caliper and measure your fat % yourself instead of asking retards who don't even lift about their professional oppinion. Its not that fucking expensive.
>>37138705
>tfw I still bench more than you
>>37139459
That's nowhere near 6%
Lower ab veins don't mean shit
>>37139459
>calipers
They're as accurate as autismoguessing on chan.
>>37139499
As I said, you guys are fucking delusional. Just get a caliper and measure your shit for yourselves, you'll be surprised.
>>37139537
no they aren't
>>37139637
yes they are
>>37139537
they are more accurate than the oppinon of random people if you do it regularly.
>>37139644
>consistent objective measurement by the same person has the same accuracy as showing a photo to random people and letting them guess
>>37139726
>not knowing the meaning of objective
Okay, so I guess I will throw my scale away aswell, since obviously It cant be accurate right? Since you know its objective measurement by the same person. I should rather post pictures of my body and ask people how much they think I weight and then pick the response I like. This is the way to go. Fucking retard...
>>37139751
>objective
>not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.
so, measuring thickness of fat or a scale - you can't change these things regardless of your opinion or feelings about them
>subjective
>belonging to the thinking subject rather than to the object of thought
random people's thoughts on your photo based on personal feelings and biases
kill yourself retard
Should I be done with my cut and hit the friggin' gym bras?
>>37139784
Yeah yeah I'm glad you know the difference between those two. The question at hand is whether I should throw away my scale or not though. Since by your logic consistent objective measurement by the same person is fucking unaccurate. So pls answer that question for me.
>>37139998
I didn't say consistent objective measurement by the same person is inaccurate, I said the opposite. I repeat, kill yourself retard.

Bulk anon.
Also, bf% guess?
>>37140051

>>37140206
Height?
I'm also 5'9" 155lb for reference. You should definitely bulk, you're going to be cutting into no muscle. You'll have to go holocaust mode to get low bf%
5'11, 165lbs
Don't estimate based on the abs, I've never trained them so I'd have to go seriously low before they showed.
Between calipers, tape measures, and online calculators, I've had the results to be anything between 5-9%, but who knows. I get 4mm with the calipers on my abdominals, 2mm on my chest, but it's difficult to measure all the locations. I'd have to get a proper water test to know for sure.
Either way, I'm cutting to as low bf as I can by the end of the month.

What do you think my body fat is?
I'm 6 foot 1". I weighed in at 154lbs this morning.
My brothers say I'm skinny as shit and need to bulk, but honestly I feel better than ever, and I lift the same as I did when I weighed a shitload more. So I think I'm gonna keep cutting until it has a negative effect on me. Looking to go down to around 150lbs or even 145lbs.
>>37142201
Here's another pic
>>37140474
That's cool and all but what's my body fat roughly

Literally no idea what my bf is.
Height: 6 foot 5"
Weight: Around 192 lbs
Been working out for about 3 months, and started eating a lot more protein. What should I do to achieve that sweet sixpack?
Also open to suggestions regarding workout n' shit
sorta fat but thank god my back and shoulders are wider than my waist, should i cut before getting gains or can I maintain or increase calories to bulk a bit as I am?
>>37142018
you should probably go to a geneticist to know for sure, but damn you look just like one
>>37142315
Thanks man.
Been lifting arund 2 1/2 years. Started at 15, now 18 (Might look older cos I'm a hairy motherfucker).
My routine when I started was 6 days a week going crazy and shieeet. But then after 6 months or so i got burnt out. Then I just stuck to 3 days a week, splitting back/bi's, chest/tri's and legs/shoulders.
However, for the past year or so I've only been doing a back sessions with 30 minutes of cardio after. Then a couple hours of cardio wherever I can fit in the week, and a leg session at the end of the week. I've been doing this whilst cutting all this time, and I haven't lost any strength (actually gained some weight in a few lifts).
I started this because I injured my shoulder and decided to lay off exercises which affect my shulder for a while, but now I don't even wanna go back to those exercises.
This helped me learn that compound lifts are all you need, along with a couple of isolation excersises here and there.
There were periods where I would cut and almost reach my goal and then I would bulk again until I was fat as fuck, so I gained muscle, strength and a shitload of fat. Recently, I decided to cut until I had fuck all fat, cos I was sick of looking like a fatass at times. Now once I've reached my goal, I will bulk very very slowly, like 1lbs gained a month or so.
Anyways, different things work for different people, but I feel that compound lifts for back and legs, with a lot of cardio has made me feel the fittest I've ever felt in my life.
>>37142498
in what way does it look like I have it? And how do you know about it?
>>37142579
fourth year medical student, pretty common chromosomal disorder, ask a doctor for a karyotype to see if you have it, if you're not retarded, the worst thing that could happen from it is infertility
Trying to get to sub 10... I am 6'2'' 175lbs, I'm thinking I am like 10-11%
>>37142468
It's early in Summer. Time to cut, son. And you'll regret bulking when you've alreadyg to quite a bit of fat on you.
>>37140042
Cut. You look fat.
>>37142619
What signs do I have? On the Internet it says that you would have man boobs and very little body hair, i don't think I have man boobs desu
>>37142679
triangular pubic hair (top part is horizontal), odd shaped enlongated torso, if you were a bit fatter it'd be easier to tell if man boobs, but generally odd fat distribution is easier to distinguish. google pics of it and see if it fits the bill
>>37142643
I'll start today then, try to get a 500 deficit until no more love handles
>>37142679
are your balls normal? if so, don't worry about it you freak
>>37142713
>elongated torso
It looks pretty normal to me, I am pulling my shoulders back mind
I've Google pics of male pubic hair (no homo) and all the pics seem to be the same as mine
I don't know, the more I research the less I think I have it. But it would explain a lot if I did have it desu. Little facial hair, depression, not much muscle etc. As I said my test levels were normal, don't people with klinefelter have low test?
>>37142767
Well I have 2 balls and they look normal
>>37142837
then youre good to go
>>37142879
Ok thanks I am not worried now

Body is the result of a failed abortion of a bulk 2 years or so ago and then doing jack shit and dropping to current weight without lifting. Starting back with lifting and not sure if I should just go with a slight surplus to fill out my retardedly bad frame. Arms are shit. I look like a mix of average to skelly in some places. Side pic coming for full roasting.
>>37143175
You can turn that body into something acceptable pretty quickly, anon. I'd just maintain weight for a while if I were you.
>>37143175
Lol.
>>37142968
Am I shadowbanned or something?
>>37143217
>Shadowbanned
back to red dit
Either way, you're too skinny, lack too much muscle for it to matter. Obviously you should bulk, until you have some muscle worth talking about, then cut, and ask again.
>>37143248
>>37143250
Thanks
>>37143195
Thanks. That's what I've been doing lately, just trying to stick around TDEE on average.
>>37125275
You've done really well anon. Ignore these faggots. I suggest you start by doing full upper body exercises like pull ups 3 to 5 days a week to build your upper body definition. And also give yourself a decent foundation on which to start building your upper body strength.
>>37143248
>I'm fat I feel horrible about myself so you should too.

You have zero definition in your calfs. You look like a rat on stilts.
I'm sorry buddy but your bullshit doesn't wash with me. If you're trying to bulk your legs should be looking large and defined.
End of story.

I'm cutting faglord
>Bulking

pick one
Here's a pic of me two months ago.
>>37144121
I'm saying you need to work on your legs faglord.
Listen to me. Muscle burns fat. After your arse, your upper legs are the largest muscles in your body, and also the biggest fat burners.
In addition to that, when you 'stress' your upper leg muscles, including your arse, you create the largest test burst and lactic acid build-up possibly, making bigger gains over all, without roids.
I can tell you ignored leg week. There are so many reasons for leg week.
Keep up the good work, but don't criticise others.
>>37144175
lmao
The amount of bollocks you're spewing is hilarious. What the fuck is leg week?
>Saying you need to work on your legs
I know I can only squat 2.5pl8 for reps, but like I said, I've only been lifting 6-9 months. And if you think that someone who looks like >>37142983, doesn't need to bulk, then you're a fucking retard.
>>37144230
You seem angry girly legs. Good luck with that.

>Posts shitty bait maymays with no reason
>Back to plebit
>Rat on stilts
>Bullshit
>Doesn't read my post and complains that my bulk (when I'm cutting) isn't making my legs defined (which it wouldn't anyway)
Either way, at least I posted a pic of myself, unless >>37144013 is you, which wouldn't be surprising.
>>37144282
I said your legs are shitty. Get over it faggot.
>>37144282
If you're naturally fat, then work on your legs. I'm not spouting opinions here. Irrespective of how upset you feel about it.
You'll make your life a whole lot easier friend buddy,,.
>>37144121
You should cut your toenails
>>37144304
No, you repeatedly told me to work my legs when I repeatedly told you I hit them twice a week anyway. You just have very bad reading comprehension.
>>37144359
>Naturally fat
Great meme friend.
>>37144359
>naturally fat
>>37144359
>If you're naturally fat, then work on your legs.
>Not an opinion
This is why /fit/ is going downhill. You're right it's not an opinion. It's just the dumbest shit I've heard in a while.
>>37144375
I said work on your chicken legs.
Work on your skinny chicken legs.
Your legs are skinny chicken legs.
Work on your legs.
Faggot.
>>37144396
See, still unable to read, and comprehend the fact I already said I work my legs twice a week.
You're just as bad as that 'naturally fat' guy.
>>37144396
Post body.
>>37144408
I don't think you work on your legs twice a week. I don't think you work on your legs at all.
Take a picture of your tensed calf to prove it.
I think you're full of shit.
>>37144435
Nah, I'm good. I've already posted two pics and told you that I can squat 2.5pl8 for reps. Whether that's good or not doesn't matter, as I'm still working legs. So I'll just leave you with this.
>I've got chicken legs and I feel horrible about myself so you should too.
Hehe.
>>37144435
>>37144520
In fact, who knows, you might get lucky and I might post a pic tomorrow, as that's my second leg day. Tuesday and Friday.
>>37144520
>confirmed
Ok.Good luck chicken legs.

bf%?

30 +- ish
>>37144734
that's what i thought appearance-wise, but my skinfold fat calliper readings always say i'm around 5-6%, so I must be using them wrong?
>>37144748
>>37144734
(I have a manual fat caliper, not an automatic)
>>37144748
>5-6%

Using them wrong. Bruce Lee was 120 lbs, 5.8 with a BMI of 25.
If you have a moment take a look at Bruce Lee for reference.
>>37144797
Someone's gonna pull me up on this so ye. Close enough.
>5%.
Nah.
>>37144820

>>37144777
sigh...time for me to cut then.
>>37144901
Starting lifting next week, getting my membership tomorow
I've been working out since I was I was a little kid, had numerous hard labour jobs since I was 13 years old until now in my late 30's and I look fit.
My BMI is 25.
I've always felt inferior and weak because of the way fat people paint a picture about how much they hate skinny people. This is exacerbated by the emphasis huge conglomerates like MacDonald's and kfc, wendys etc put on skinny shaming.
The fact of the matter is, there is a healthy weight to be. And we all know what that is. Also, there is a healthy amount of strength to have, which is as necessary part of being a man in general. Fitting a kitchen, fixing a motorcycle, cuddling your wife.
No amount of muscles will make you a man.
You have to be a man.
>>37143469
Thank you. What about my diet? Should I eat less while exercising, eat average or eat a lot?
>>37145076
That's a tough question.
If you feel like you naturally have a slower metabolism, and therefore find it easier to gain weight I suggest you eat normally but up your protein intake.
You need to strike a balance between carbs and protein.
If you're exercising hard every day then eat whatever the fuck you want. But get lots of protein rich foods in like tuna fish and milk and plenty of sleep in between.
If you're hungry ,eat. Eat mostly protein if you want muscle. Fish, milk, eggs etc. They don't convert to fat so as many as you want.
If you're sat on yer ass doing nothing then don't eat any of those things.
Also hate bernie.
>>37145076
>>37144282
Also ignore this guy. He's posting in this thread with the sole objective of making you feel bad.
Fact is, all perfect physics start with leg work. Something this faggot hasn't figured out yet.
