Why do you say so high?
Not arguing just asking.

It's kind of hard to tell from that pic. My guess was 16% maybe 15%

Better?

 

[freakyfoot]

I would say 16-18%

No offense brother just my honest opinion I'd go with dialtones number of around 18%

You're holding quite a bit around the mid section which is why the abs aren't showing at all. Also I can tell you're holding quite a bit in your back from the love handles. At least you don't have a big ol beer belly or anything like that!

My suggestion is to go to the diet forum and get your diet point on. Thats gonna make a night and day diff in your physique. Then work out a good cardio routine and you should be able to drop the first 5% pretty quickly.

Thanks all, that sucks but it is what it is.
Back to the old drawing board.

18% isn't bad for a normal person. It's pretty average. Trust me, when you start dropping weight, you'll realize how much fat you actually have...it's always a shock to me when I diet down.

 

[BigUps]

15 to 16%

 

[DapperSapper]

18%

I am 18% (have calipers) and have quite a bit more definition but could be just that I have more muscle under my fat

I'd say anywhere from 16-18% as well. You are holding quite a bit of body fat around your midsection. Cut down with a proper diet and you'll be where you want to be. What did you think you were at?

This chart might help you. I'd say you are at around 20%, 15% seems way too low. The reason I say 20%, is because my roommate has pretty much the exact same body as you, and when he got his body fat calculated it was at 22%. He has one thing that you don't have though, which is a little bit of manboobs, so based on that I would say 20%.
