can someone help me guesstimating my bodyfat %?

thanks!

i've been trying to bulk up without putting too much fat. being skinny fat is terrible.

nah i'm gonna stick with the 17% estimation lol.

how does it work?

hey guys... so i've been following this diet where i eat 200-300 kcal above my TDEE besides working hard at the gym. for the past few weeks i've been losing some body fat tho which i'm absolutely thrilled about even though i'm technically bulking. i guess it's body recomposition since i'm fairly new at the gym. i can already see some outline of my six packs especially at the top part of my abs. but i still have some significant fat on my love handles. should i lower my calorie intake? or should i just follow through with my current diet? i heard that the love handles are the hardest fat to get rid of. seriously if i finally get rid of my love handles i'd be the happiest person in the world.

congratulations on the weight loss, dayalan86! keep it up.

hi. one thing you need to be clear is there is no spot reduction when it comes to fat loss. you may want to lose those fat in your tummy but in order to lose weight you have to lose fat all over your body. hence whatever exercise you do works in fat loss as long as you sweat. more important than exercise however is diet.

all the best! at least you've been through the road before so you don't have to second-guess everything unlike a newbie.

You can use fat calipers to estimate your fat percentage. You can also use body fat scales but they're quite expensive.

I used to post my picture online and asked people to estimate my body fat instead. It's fast, easy and it's free.

Wow he is really inspiring. Love to see fit dude who are over 50's. I hope I will be like that too.

My elder brother and several friends are on it. It has become somekind of a trend now. How long have you been doing IF and how long do you intend to keep it up?

It's weed. I'm pretty sure it's illegal here.

For a 20-year-old you sure are very conscious about your health. That's great, but make sure you exhaust all the common methods to lose some of your weights before jumping into any pills/supplements/other trendy products/diets.
