Post a pic for brutal honesty.
you can post a pic and we can help
My gym has a machine called ?inbody?
It measures weight. Body fat and skeletal muscle mass.
I won?t say it is 100% accurate cause very little is with BF.
However I have used it as a gauge for the last 2 years. By using the same machine every Sunday at about the same time of day. I have a good running log. I can see my improvement and disappointments along the way. To me this is my way of having a decent controlled experiment

Kinda wished you'd have flexed your abs but I would say around 10%.

I don't think you need to go lower than 10% unless you're competing. I like to stay around 12%. If I go lower than that my chick says I look like a crackhead.
BMI calc says I'm 3 pounds from overweight, various measurement types are all different, inbody or something similar would be the only way to know for sure I guess. No matter what it actually is I'm going to fight for 10 more pounds of Lean muscle! Easier said than done.
BMI is an absolute joke.
I am 53 6? 185 -190lb at about 8% bf and that crazy BMI says I am overweight.
That cracks me up. I do not think it takes in to consideration muscle mass.
Ignore that . You are doing great.
I have found a weight that I am comfortable and is easy to maintain. I can cut down to 7 real easy if I want or need too.
Find that sweet spot for you then just focus on adding muscle and work on the little muscles and definition..
Abs will show at the point you are at.
No it?s time to just build them.
Stay strong!!!

BMI is a complete joke for any of us in this lifestyle
honestly that is something thats just non existent in my world lol
Don't even bother about what it says. It doesn't takes into consideration your muscle mass. I'm normally in the 7%-10% range, 195-205lbs and 5'10 and it says I'm overweight also.

You're definitely lean enough in my opinion. You're in perfect shape for a bulk.
