How long dose it usually take you as in yourself

How long dose it usually take you as you in yourself to loose 3 or 4% in body fat?

Im asking this because I measured today at 13.6% bf and Im shooting for 10% bf.

.... roughly...

i'd like to think i could drop about 3% in 4 weeks, 4% might take me about 5-6 weeks, i would not try and drop more than 3% in 1 cut coz i start to lose too much muscle dropping below 8-9%

peace

It gets harder as time goes on, I'd love to be 10% though.

that is a relative question, 3-4% to you may be 6-8 pounds, to someone else it may be 3-4 pounds based on body weight.

it's better IMO to shoot for 1 pound per week as a ballpark number. so, if you weigh 200lbs and need to lose 3-4%, or 6-8 pounds, shoot for 6-8 weeks as a goal. (I hope my math was correct )
