How long would it take to from 18-20% body fat to 10-12%?

Till now I have generally been good at sports and athletics, jack of all trades at that lol, was avoiding weights till now, but going to join the gym this December, so how long does it take? Can I achieve it by next november?

Definitely can achieve it by next November man. Just eating healthy and a lot of protein helps build muscle and keep fat off. Try and go 3 times a week and do cardio and weights if you want to lose fat and gain muscle 💪 good luck man

Depends, did you bulk to get to 18-20? Or did you cut to get to 18-20? If you started heavy it will take longer than if you started light. By next year I believe you can do it, you need to eat perfectly and lift hard though.

i didn't exactly bulk, but my shoulders got wider anyway

4-6 months likely. I normally don't go over 15% and it takes me about a month or two to get it down to 10-12%. I have a fast metabolism.

4-6 months? No way. If you're half adding it then yeah. You can do it comfortably in 2 months with weekly running.

It takes a lot of dedication though. I'm was being realistic, this guy likely has little experience with dieting and working out. Not everyone can go into pre comp. mode or has the experience to drop 10% boyfriend in 8-10wks.

Do loss 1% body fat requires a person to burn off 8000 calories.
A good 2 hours of heavy gym work could burn 1000 calories so its 8 of those sessions for every 1% body fat

You could do that in 2-3 weeks if you train hard.
