Bf%

[Lifter74]

Ok so I am 5'10" 260. I'm going to say 22% bf. Maybe hair lower. If I drop to 230 while keeping exact muscle mass would that get me close to 15%. Excuse me if this is unanswerable but thought it was worth a shot just to get an idea.

You could try using this calculator:

Its not very accurate for people with higher than average muscle mass though.

Yeah I don't think that's for people with 20 inch arms. I'm a lard ass but not a 35% lard ass. Lol

20% BF at 260 would put you at 52 pounds of fat on your frame. The rest is water and lean mass. How much water do you carry is likely a function of genetics and sodium intake. That combo would be 208 pounds.

If you drop down to 230, and you're still at 208 pounds of lean mass and water, you've got 22 pounds of fat. That puts you closer to 10% BF.
