The math says the person possesses 32 lbs. of fat. I assume you're correct, but you lost me on the formula.
I get the bodyweight times the current bfp, but get confused with the proposed or goal bfp subtraction thing.
Where's Built? What are the odds of the OP losing only fat? How much weight would he need to lose to reach nine percent? Still 14 lbs.?
Maybe I'm asking a stupid question. I'm assuming they'll lose some lean tissue along with the fat loss.
you're right curt. it's just a simple formula which is not entirely correct but a good estimation.
His body composition and relative bf% will change to overall body mass. that was just a simple calculation to give a rough idea. And yes, the calculation only show the fat portion, not considering the actual muscle loss concurrent with the fat loss.
If you do it slowly and steady with some gear, I don't think he'd lose much muscle though.

It's interesting stuff. Setting a goal and stripping off the fat. Never been any damned good at gaining muscle, but trimming down normally works for me.
Although looking at my gut right now...

right....201 x (16-9) = 187 with the assumption that youd lose only body fat which is damn near impossible but it gives you an idea. Plus who cares about the number 9?, why is that important? (other than just a personal best or something?) Just cut till you're shredded and re test. You're not really going to know your true bf percentage unless you're doing hydrostatic or something?

Since we're on the subject, at what BF% before you start seeing abs?
201 * (1 - .16) = 168.8The math says the person possesses 32 lbs. of fat. I assume you're correct, but you lost me on the formula.
168.84/(1-.09) = 185.5
201-185.5 = 15.5 lbs
Thus, assuming zero change in lean mass, the OP will reach 9% at 185.5 lbs. I would submit this may be attainable if he diets and trains properly. Leaner than 9% he'll suffer loss unless he's assisted.
Good assumption. That's usually what happens.I get the bodyweight times the current bfp, but get confused with the proposed or goal bfp subtraction thing.

I also got this problem before. What is the formula of losing bad fats?And it ended me to always count on how many % do I have to loss, day by day I just think of that percentage. It doesn't give me any changes. Until such time I just think that I need to live healthy. Thank God, I have learned to make it a hobby. Eating healthy foods and drinking teas are more effective.

Most people say 10 percent. Average. I'm pretty decent at 20% Kinda depends on your frame and development if you ask me.
