For me the easiest way to tell is by seeing the abs, but I would place you around 8 to 10. That said there are a lot of shadows that tend to make you look a little more ripped. 10% is the high estimate. Youre definately no where near as high as 15 though

10%ish. It all depends as you could be like me and carry a lot of your fat on your legs. But meh, it's not far off me thinks.

Most of my weight is carried in my abdominal area. My chest is the only muscle that seems to grow. I have very small arms and legs for my weight and size! The Damn things refuse to grow!

Oi. Well make a thread asking about your workout split then?

Hell it may be your genetics. Some people just grow like weeds, especially in the calve area. That just means you need to work a little harder :D

Oh i work hard, however i'm very limited considering i work out alone in my basement. Working out alone makes it harder to get that extra rep in!

post pics that show your body better

based on what I see, somewhere between 11-15%

bodyfat is almost always underestimated because people don't know how to test properly

Use one of those abwheels trust me on this one. Give it a try for about a month, and ull see, I got an 8 pack because of it.

who cares
from the upper body i would say around 9.5 or so....but you said you have most of your fat concentrated in your abs so we also would have to see a pic of your abs for the guesstimation to be accurate.

If you know your own BF what is the point of asking the question in the first place?

I just got back from world's gym to have my bf measured and i'm right at 10% BF. Some of you guys know nothing about weightlifting, so why even reply to a post you know nothing about?

Why make a thread if you were just going to get tested for it?

'

Your pics were very bad pics for giving a good measurement of your BF. It should include waist and thighs if you want to have accurate guesses. All we can do now is to look at the definition between your muscle groups, veins and see if there are any striation on the muscles or at the base.

It's pretty obvious why you posted your pics though.
