[mposster]

learned somthing intresting yesterday....my trainer pulled my bodyfat od scin calipers yesterday he pulled me at 5.7% i am 6'1 209lbs 2 weeks out from a show....i also had a dexascan done yesterday to see how close the test were....oh by the way the dexascan is like a x-ray machine and scans everything..tells you how musc bone wieght,,muscle wieght,,, fat weight...
i was 11.1 on the dexascan....kinda hurts the feeling a little bit....but now i can laugh when people try to tell me that there 3% BF....and realistically they are 10...makes you think...how lean am i really.....

The Dexa Scan is considered the gold standard for measuring body fat and provides a high degree of precision with a 2-3 % margin of error. Believe that one.

my favorite is when these tiny ass kids in my class are like "no trust me im really lean, im only like 3% bodyfat"...and im like okay where did u get it tested, and they are like "i just know trust me im not fat at all, i run alot"...it makes me wanna flex my arms, with their neck inside em

I go by the mirror, who the hell cares what percentage you actually are....I probably never been under 10% then, but I got abs and veins all over my arms..thats lean enough for me.

I agree, for those of us who aren't in comps, the mirror tells me good or bad.
