righto

so im 86kg BW @ 17.8% BF

currently doing a cal decifit etc etc

question is... How much body fat do i have to loose to get to 9-10% BF, and if im doing it at a steady rate of 500-600g per week, how long to reach my goal?

found this:

so i'd need to loose about 7-8kg?

thanks :nod:

Hmmm - at 86/17.8%, that's 15.3kg bf, lean muscle (86-15.3) is 70.7 kg.

Assuming you neither added nor lost lean muscle in the process, 10% bf on top of 70.7kg would be an additional 7kg of bf - so yep you'd be aiming to lose 8.3kg - ending up at 78 kg.

At 500g/ week, 16 weeks - just in time for summer :)
