Question for JC body fat....

JC....
A real question for you
I swim every night for at least 1/2 hour( most night 40 minutes)... Im
196 to 193... 6 ft and have about 30% body fat..... (188 seems to be a
very good weight for me)
In your world (not the stupid you are fat world) do me a favor and work
with me on this... What % fat, carb, and protein should I shoot for? And
what total calorie count for a day should I take aim at to reduce to
about 20% body fat.....
And what is the best way to track it.

Thanks
Warren

PS... you have a lot to say and I like what you say when you are not
being your alter ego. I try not to get hung up on the small stuff
because I am looking to learn, not debate.... so, if you are interested
in this it's in your court.....

I don't think JC would give you dietary advice - other than that you
should eat less calories to lose weight - but he'd almost definitely
tell you to start lifting weight.

I'll be interested to see what JC has to say. But on the off-chance you're
not a troll here's my 10c. At 193 and 30% fat your LBM is 135. If the LBM
doesn't change, and it won't unless you do some serious exercise, you need
to lose 23 lbs to get to 20% fat. So, buy the Atkins book and get with the
program.

No Im not a troll or anything like that.....
I swim everyday but to get to 20% sounds very difficult... so what is
realistic in your opinion....

Look, I'm not a doctor or a professional trainer, and perhaps you need to
consult one or both such people. But IMO based on the information you've
given you should aim to increase your LBM by quite a lot and reduce your
body fat to 15% or below. I bet you'd look and feel good at 200 lbs and 15%
fat. This'd mean a serious commitment to exercise, both weights and cardio,
and to following an appropriate diet. Whether you want to amke that
commitment is of course up to you.

By way of comparison, I'm male, 62, 180lbs and 10% body fat.
