How do i lose bodyfat %?

Eat less.

Calories > macros > meal timing > supplements & everything else.

Keto = playing with macros. Whether your diet is low fat & high carb or high fat & low carb, it doesn't matter. You need to be in a deficit in order to lose fat/weight.

165 @ 6'0 is light. Losing fat isn't your problem. You need to gain more muscle. I would start lifting more days per week and for longer.

Fast for three weeks.

You probably know your required calory intake. Subtract 500 from it (less in workout days). Add some cardio to your regiment (can do it after weights or after waking up - on empty stomach).

HIIT is great for fat burning, but it's tough.

3 weeks is not a lot of time, you should start cutting earlier next time.

Realistically, losing 6 pounds in 3 weeks is about all you can do in a safe manageable way. And that's about a 1000 calorie deficit per day. So, eat very little calories over the next 3 weeks. Don't over do any days. Make sure you are getting your target calories. You aren't going to be able to gain much strength while you do this but continue to lift through it.

Get a weekly meal plan. Weigh your food Count your calories.

Hang in there, NOTHING HAPPENS OVERNIGHT

Obey the laws of thermodynamics.

Write it down on a bit of paper, get really drunk and then hide it somewhere. When you sober up you won't be able to find it

With cardio and diet in check , eating cinnamon could be really beneficial for fat loss

Stomach vacuum exercise makes your waist smaller but it is only noticeable if you are low bodyfat

And of course the vast majority of your lifts should be compound,and by compound I mean motherfucking SQUATS. HIIT is a great way to retain muscle while dropping fat but if your goal is to burn fat FAST you can't avoid losing muscle mass.

And be careful of what you consume,you may consume WAY more calories than you think. Everything but water has calories. If you eat salads because they are "healthy" and low-caloric and you combine it with olive oil,you can easily surpass your caloric limit for fat loss. Count E V E R Y T H I N G

165lbs and 6'0? if you just starting lifting go on a bulk for at least 2 years, before you even think about cutting. I'm not saying dirty bulk, you'll get fat. Go on a clean bulk. Lifting and getting your dream body is a lifelong journey don't expect much off of one bulk

Tom Platz (The QuadFather) once said to get in shape you have to get out of shape first.

As people have said, 500-1000 calorie deficit. However make sure you're hitting your protein intake or it could lead to stalling. That happens for me anyway.

1g per kg as a minimum. 1.5g/kg is what I aim for. So for your 165lbs thats 113g of protein a day @1.5g/kg.

I wouldn't worry about the next 3 weeks, think longer term of building a good foundation of which to work off.
