When I turned 60 I was tipping the scales at 259 pounds. I am 5ft 9 inches tall.
I started "working out" and created a rudimentary gym in a room in my basement. I am not a bodybuilder, but I have gained a little muscle from light lifting.
Six years later I am currently weighing in at 205 pounds. My weight has stayed stable plus or minus 2-3 pounds for the last couple of years.
I am a goal oriented individual and have got it in my head that I want to get to 10% body fat, but I have no idea where I am at currently. I figure there is no better collective body of individuals who would be better at estimating body fat percentage from a picture than bodybuilders, so that is why I am here. If you could give me your very educated guesses as to my current body fat percentage, I can do the math and figure out how many pounds I need to drop to get to my goal of 10%.
I know people look bigger after a workout, so I took three days off in the gym before I took this picture.
Please give me your estimates and I will average them out, dance on the calculator and begin the journey.
Thanks!
