Hello all,
I am wondering if something is possible. Do to some encouragement I got rid of my old scale and got one that tell my BF %, I also got some calipers for BF% because I heard they were more accurate. Much to my horror I am sitting at about 24% BF (according to the calipers), the scale said a bit more which furthered my horror. I asked my self how did I get this way, but right then I knew the answer (two words ?desk job?).
I have gone through spurts where I have worked out very intensely and I can usually drop about 20lbs pretty easy. After that I get discouraged because the scale doesn?t move. Hopefully with me focusing less on weight and more on BF% this time will be different. I have started a journal to keep track over every thing I eat, all my body measurements, and my exercises.
My main question is: Is it possible to go (relatively) safely from 24 ? 26 % BF to 10 ? 12 % BF in 6 months?
This is my planed workout.

I know after a bit I will have to switch things up to keep things effective, but any ideas if this is a good way to get me to my goal? Really what I want is good abs. Girls love them, and got I love girls. = )
Any one here had a transformation like this one? Or does any one know at about what BF% you will start to see your abs?
