I don't know man. My boy had a legit skinfold for wrestling and he's around 12%. And he's decently cut.

Sorry to screw your thread up mayo but does it just take time to get that crease inbetween your pecs. I dont have that but I want it really bad.

I'm definitely not 10%... if i were to guess i would say around 14%... but i really have no idea... thing that sux is you can't just get lean where you want to... i feel a hell of a lot leaner in my upper body... but in my midsection and love handles it's a much slower process... i mean, i do see overall progress... but it's small and slow in coming...

Are you kidding me????

IronSlingah

how long do you estimate its gonna take you to get sub 10% from around 14% right now?

P-funk

it is pretty tough to tell someones body fat percentage by looking at a picture like that becasue everyone holds fat in different spots. You look pretty lean from the front but you may be holding some fat around you lower back, like I do, so that will throw you bf% off from what we can see. Some people hold more on their glutes and some hold more fat on their face. One of my buddis is at about 19-20% but he still has abs!!! He just genetically always has abs. It is really tough to tell but, you look like you are doing a great job man, keep up the good work.

HoldDaMayo

you guys are very kind, thanks, just to let you know, i think you all are doing awesome jobs as well... you all inspire me... the little newb that I am

Are you kidding me????

Hey mayo do you have any pics from when you first started. How much cardio are you doing now on your cut.

He who speaks least, think's most.

HoldDaMayo

2 days a week cardio... 30 minute sessions on the eliptical at about 75 RPM and distance ends up about 3.2 miles or whatever the measurement is on those things... after the 5 minute cooldown, 35 minutes total it ends up being close to 500 calories by the machine's calculations...

But, the only thing that really started DRASTICALLY changing my body was when I actually stopped cheating so much and really devoted myself to my diet... never going over 3 hours without eating something good... it's just completely changed me...

Funny, I used to read Jodi's posts and go... "this woman is crazy... she is way overdoing the whole diet thing" but she was soooo right... and I wished i would have started sooner... you know those adds where the guys like make crazy progress in a short amount of time... i can sort of understand it now... dieting makes so much of a difference... I'm still trying to perfect my diet... but I know it's really worth it...

I don't really have any pics before november 24th... not that show me without a shirt on or anything... I was too embarrassed... I fluctuate up and down around 175 now... I was at almost 210 Christmas 2002...

Looking at your front and back pics, I would have to say that 12-15% is dead on. This is, of course, without seeing your legs.

If sense were common, everyone would have it.

I'm gonna say 10-12%. You are pretty lean. You look like you are holding a little in the lower abs and love handles. A little Absolved and Lipoderm Ultra should work good for you!

I gotta give ya props here Mayo, lookin good my man.

I am at about 225lb right now, and I just started reading Jodi's posts and following a strict diet. You are 100% right, it changes you a lot. I have only been following the 5-6 meal plan for a week but already I feel better.

185lb is the goal by August, and I am doing little more than diet, cardio, and weights with high reps to get there. I hope I have as much success as you have.
