No it doesn’t. Your goal should be how you look in the mirror. Judges will not measure your bodyfat, nor will they get out a tape measure and check how big your arms are.
You have a very good natural shape, and I’d venture that you’re naturally lean as well. Still, at 8 weeks, you have work to do.

I know that a certain weight doesnt matter, but id think that at like 5% bf regardless you’d be lean as fuark, vascular, etc. And i started out 8 wks ago, and ive lost 16 lbs so far so i wouldnt say that im naturally lean lol.
Well thanks man, im going to keep losing 2 lbs a week. Thankfully my lifts have relatively stayed the same so im pretty sure i havent lost any muscle. And by the end of the prep, if im not lean enough then ill pick another show to do a few weeks after my planned June 23 date.

Sounds like a very good plan, and also that you’ve already been making steady progress on your cut. Keep going, and best of luck to you. Keep us informed how things are heading.
