I would need a display for 1-2% to gauge accurately.

20% roughly now but I feel best between 10-15%. I have been 6-7-8% but couldn't hold this long and felt facially I looked older as I lost more and more fat and water weight.

Probably about 20 but hoping to hit 40 before the summer is out

I would say 20%... I have been maybe 16% at my leanest. Almost for sure 18% or under. I can't say 15%, based on that photo. But my stomach is a problem area, and my only bad spot. Other than that, I would say 15% in prior times [and very likely in a month or two if I stick with my diet].

Aside from genetic freaks, does anyone really walk around under 15%, from day to day.

Munzer, 3%. Second guy, 5. Third, 8, nine tops if he has relatively fat legs. Fourth, 12-13 tops. The 20% dude is more like 16-17%. The rest are fairly accurate.

Easily. 15% is NOT lean. And you were easily under that at your best, but I reckon you know that and are fishing.

You won't find many gym rats much under 12%, however, unless you're in a pretty hard core gym. 10 percenters will be in the top five percentile, and anything under eight is uncommon if not rare.

Anything above 8% and you're too fat to peel your shirt off at the beach.

Most people who live a fitness oriented lifestyle but aren’t obsessive freaks would fall into the 20% which I believe is much less. Anything lower and you’re continuously having to
worry about calories and macros.

In that chart, the difference between 15 and 20 is much greater than that between 20 and 25.
