"that is not always true, i have been at 4% my whole life sometimes 5. you are right most of the time, but people who have very small frames simply do not hold as much mass and can have that low of bf. i test at 3 on a caliper and know that is a little low, but think of someone like kevin garnet who is 7 feet 220, he is probably 5% year round no matter what, thats how i am. makavelli just competed at 3%. a lot of athletes are 4-5% naturally."
dude no offense but do some more reading...im a nutritionist and i know for a fact that isnt right....
lee priest "i never have my body fat tested and i think thats a complete waste of time for bodybuilders. All these guys love to rave about how their body fat is this or that amount, but then you look at them and they're still smooth. bodybuilding is judged entirely by appearance, so you have to go by the mirror. If you look ripped, you will do well. people all seem to exaggerate how low their body fat is, too. On the message boards, almost nobody ever says that they're over 10 percent, but on the rare occasions that they post a photo-very rare i may add- its clear that they're off by at least an additional 10 percent. then if they can see a couple of abs and a vein or two, they claim to be down to three percent. Give me a fucking break. three percent body fat was like andreas munzer, looking like the skin was peeled off."
