I wouldn't worry about your fat estimate body fat, fat weighs more than muscle. Your body type is in a thin zone. I would say 13-14% that you're carrying.

Probably between 13-15% at the moment.

If you get down to 10-12% then you'll begin to see your abs and you'll have a bit more definition, however you're also going to be smaller in general. I wouldn't advise going below 8% bodyfat otherwise you're going to run into some health problems.

@Dah Muscle and fat weigh the same amount. A ton of muscle and a ton of fat both weigh a ton, the only difference is a ton of fat is about four times the size of a ton of muscle, yet they still weigh the same. If anything, muscle is denser and weighs four times more than fat.

I searched it up before I wrote that and what I said it said on the internet because I wasn't too sure what way round was right. Fat heavier than muscle or muscle is heavier than fat? You know more than me in that respective Fair enough!.

There's body fat calculators where all you have to go is get measurements of yourself, it's pretty simple and you'd be almost spot on with your body fat
