I was wondering what bodyfat u guys like to b at 10 wks, 8 wks, and 4 wks out from a show. Also if you're ready early whats your protocal on that. Right now I'm 10 weeks out 10% bodyfat. But I feel I'll b ready 2-4 weeks early.

I lose about .5%bf per week. So working backwards (and assuming you've done your homework and will be ready 2 weeks out), that would mean 4% at 2 weeks out, 5% 4 weeks out, 6% 6 weeks out, 7% 8 weeks out, 8% 10 weeks out.

If you peak early, then either decrease cardio, increase fats/carbs, or both....basically do whatever will allow you to maintain your weight, so as not to risk losing muscle at that point.
