im 268 26.7% body fat atm...
what weight ill be at around 15%?
or what should i aim for ? like the normal % of body fat on a person?


If 26.7% of your weight is body fat, that means your total weight from fat currently is 71.5lbs.

15 (desired bf%) is 56% of 26.7 (your current bf%). Therefore, you are wanting to see your weight after losing 44% of your current fat weight.

71.5 x .44 = a loss of 31.5lbs. 268-31.5= 236.5 (online calcs estimate 231)

Keep in mind this is completely subjective based on how you plan on obtaining the fat loss. This is a purely theoretical representation of someone losing fat without gaining or losing muscle in the process, and assuming you plan on using some sort of weight training or cardio to obtain your goal, this won't be remotely accurate.

That being said, don't become infatuated with the numbers or aim for a specific weight goal. Set reasonable goals for yourself in terms of sustainable dieting at a caloric deficit and adequate exercise.

I'm just over here wondering how you got that percentage of body fat lol


Also this, 6'1 230lb @15% sounds quite heavy. I'm probably around 12-14% at 6'7 and am roughly 220.

You're still gonna be 268, because you're gonna turn all that fat into muscle, and be shredded as FUARK.

eat fruits and veggies, green smoothies, green juices. these foods helped me the most made me healthy and feel good. veggies with every meal. eat natural whole real food. nothing processed, depending on your blood type and genetics certain diets work better for certain people. i srongly advocate getting your food from whole plant sources. exercise everyday no matter what get your weight down. everyone is different. don't focus on whats normal. focus on becoming better everyday, little by little, in every way.
