Take a look at Dorian in Blood & Guts. How about Lee Priest shoveling down doughnuts w/ both hands in that fatburner advt.

It would depend on what your goals are. I would say in general that you probably wouldn't want to be more then 15% body fat.

Rim and Luv2: What %  BF  would you say Dorians at in that Blood & Guts Video?

Im no competitor. Fact is Ive allways had a hard time even try to get fat.
What Im driving at is the guys that REALY bloat up, seem to get more muscle in the end.
Is that a great idea for most guys? Prob Not.

I don't know. I've only seen it once & I can't recall what he looked like in it.

He was pretty bloated. To the point of BIG belly and real smooth, but when he'd hit a pose, that crazy muscle would just pop like unreal.

He could also be holding a lot of water.

I didnt get a chance to see that, but did like Yates. But I bet he would probally be leaner than the average trainer.
