Would you consider 20-21% bodyfat as fat?

[FatmanO]

Besides my loose skin, would you say 20-21% bodyfat is noticable in clothes (not body, its not summer so I dont care much) ? I am asking because nobody has said anything about me getting fatter, just bigger muscle wise (which means I am doing something right). Of course I got to 20-21% by lifting and bulking, so take that in account.
My ideal bodyfat is 18%, about 10-15% and my chin just looks recessed and really bad, Thanks guys!

Can provide pics if needed

20% makes you look average cuz u got some muscle but u would look much better at 15% fr.

How does one measure bodyfat?

If you're muscular you won't look fat at 20%. I don't look fat and I'm like 22%.

i used a scale to measure it but it’s hella inaccurate by 3-4%. There’s no way i’m 19% with visible abs

Defo.

20% + is fat.
18% is average.
14% is lean.
11% is ripped.
8% is shredded.

You cant measure it, only guestimate it

20% makes you look average cuz u got some muscle but u would look much better at 15% fr.

At 15 percent my recessed chin gets noticed slightly more so 18 is ideal

u dont look fat anymore

Ok thank god, never though of that tbh.

Fatcels can cope with gym

Upto 5 years ago , definitely not

From medical standpoint , upto 20 percent for a man is average

From 2019 dating perspective? Yessir , anything over 12-13 percent is fat
