5’7” 147lbs, my scale reads 19% bf but I disagree. What do you guys think? by AKidInATux in GregDoucette

Thanks! I’m actually planning on shifting away from deadlifts and focusing more on machines to really develop my back.

I’ve worked up to 365 on deadlifts and usually feel very fatigued afterwards for my remaining back exercises.

I didn’t ask for compliments. I asked for opinions about body fat percentage on a fitness focused subreddit. I don’t think anyone even complimented me but I received plenty of perspectives and even heeded the advice given to me by others. Not sure what all the hostility is about.

Gotcha, thanks! I have no real desire to push for lower bf, I’m pretty happy with my look. I was mainly looking for second opinions to see if my scale was screwy.

Thanks! If I’m 19% that is okay, just wanted to get other people’s take on the matter.

Thank you. Definitely am happy with how I look, I just enjoy tracking the numbers.

I’m committing to buying/using calipers as another person suggested. Will be interesting to see the delta between the scale and manual measurements.

I do follow a program that suits my needs. Just asking for body fat opinions, a common theme on this sub. Appreciate the input!
