Thought I would share two pictures on my progress so far. First one is in mid January and last one is now in October.

I think i was about 25% bodyfat on the upper one but unsure where I am now. I had my last caliper reading in August and was about 15,8% then. Not the best photos but atleast it gives a hint of what has happend during this time.

If anyone where to guess what percentage of bf do I have on the lower one?

First of all, nice work! The second pic is a little hard to see but you'd probably be around 10-12% I'd guess.

Thanks will see if can get a better one later on. 10-12 then the caliper or person handling it must be way off ? Because after that last reading which was after 2 months prior to this photo I skipped caloric deficit and went up to balance adding 600 kcal per day to my diet.

The calipers are good if you know how to use them. If you don't have a lot of practice then the calipers tend to overestimate the BF%. Stay away from the electronic BF% readers. They tend to be inaccurate and unreliable.

Great progress man! I would say you could be a little under 15%, maybe between 12-15%. Looking good!

That's baddass progress man! I'd say you're putting in that hard work. As fas as bf I agree with the guys, maybe 12% around there.

I have been training coming up on 6 years and have made some great gainz. I've done a lot of trial and error on myself as well as learned from others and through research online. I've come along way in strength and size since I've started. I will continue to learn and make myself better each day.

Looking AMAZING my friend! I am so proud of you!!! If you are interested in seeing what your body fat is, you should get a SKULPT. It's way easier to use than calipers and you don't need help from anyone.

This looks great but alas they don't ship to Singapore - just US, UK, Australia, and Canada :-(

I emailed skulpt yesterday to see if they might ship to sweden. Otherwise I have to keep an eye open on Amazon or eBay for one.

 

Thanks for the kind words and support from you all .

Adding a "decent" for been taken by myself back picture. No real flexing or anything just to get an idea on how developer or under devoloped my V-Shape is so far. I really haven´t got a hang on how to flex my back properly without making my shoulder blades look all wierd. I feel like most of my fat storage is located on the back which in a way is nice so I don´t have to see it myself

looking good man
can you post your macros and how much you weight in the 2nd picture?

I weighed about about 75 kg / 167 lbs on second picture now I have gone up some to about 76-77 something clean bulking eating 300-500 over my estimated 2700 bmr.

 

When i was cutting I ate about 1900 per day and macros was somewhere around

45% protein

30% carbs

25% fat

 

Now I eat 2900-3200 per day

35-45 carbs

35-40 protein

20-25 fat

 

divided on 6 meals with 2-3 hour between

 

reason is for so varying percentage in macro is my family dont wanna give kids odd view on food. But in March perhaps earlier I will start with deficit again so that I hopefully reach one digit body fat this summer or atleast only 10%. This time I thought I will play around bcaa/eaa only one day a week and lots of broccoli and chicken with dry oats only. I learned during my 9 months of deficit this year that I can still workout hard with as little as 120gr of carbs which made huge diffrenice in loosing fat for me.

Holy cow man! Great progress, that's awesome. My guess would be about 12% building muscle while losing fat is very tough to do but it looks like your gettin it done. Keep it up bro!
