What BodyFat Percentage I need to Show Definition? - Sunday, February 10, 2008 5:46 PM ( #1 )
Hi I'm new here!:)  I just started weight training about 2 1/2 months ago and have noticed a change in my body, especially in my stomach.  I'm 5'3 weigh 125 and my bodyfat is currently 21%.  I've been dieting as clean as I can and do split training 4 times a week with cardio on those 4 days.  I began weighing 120 and am now at 125.  Like I mentioned, I've definitely have trimmed down but I'm curious how much bodyfat I need to lose to finally see some definition, especially in my abs, biceps and legs.  .

It depends on the person.

i would worry less about your % ages, and more about your measurements, and the mirror.

I am probably higher than 21%, but I can see 4 of my six, and my arms and back show definition.
