How many pounds of fat needs to be lost to lower bodyfat every 1%

[JD2001]

Lets say I am 8% bodyfat and I wanted to get down to 7%. How many pounds of fat would I have to lose to lose that % of fat

Lets see.......

8% - 7% = 1%

1 % of your body weight.

So, take your bodyweight and divide it by 100 ...... see ..... that's how you figure percent.

And you will have the amount of weight, in pounds, that equals 1% of your bodyweight.

Simple. About 2lbs of fat loss on average would yield a drop of 1% if you weight about 200lbs.
