If you carry enough muscle , and arent anabolichalo (by that I mean and have good genetics wide shoulders small waiste/hips) you can pull off the illiusion of being lean/shredded in clothes while walking around 10% bf.
people tell me I looking big and RIPPED...even when by bodybuilding standards most of the time Im a fat fuck. never below 8-9% bf...sometimes 11% bf.
here's a recent story- the other day at the gym some guy comes up to me and asks me what I do for my abs. I seriously lolled...Has anyone ever asked the bouncer or moneyshot what they do for their abs with their shirt on? I doubt it.....but there abs destroy mine.
If your 10% bf now, add 15 pounds of muscle and by this time next year, assuming you don't put on any extra fat your going to look 7-8%bf to the naked eye.
