Another Bodybuilding myth is that it is painful to be 3 and 4 percent bodyfat.

It is not. I operate perfectly as does this guy.

Do you think he has any problem doing what he does at 3-4 percent Bodyfat?

No. And his work and training is ALOT harder and demanding than anything a bodybuilder will EVER do.

What sort of training do these guys do? Are dumbells and barbells even necessary?

The last bodybuilding myth I heard was the one about the guy who claimed he could deadlift 225 lbs 112 times....

It's comparing apples to oranges, could Coleman pull off an iron cross? Doubt it.

I hardly believe that this guy could deadlift over 600lbs.

hilarious mental image. Ronnie would have his classic purple, glittery thong on, right?

I believe TA, I mean it isn't like he has a bad rep around here or something.

hell, I did 225 for 125 reps with one hand..it just so happens that my camera batteries died and there was no one at the gym to confirm it.

Oh yeah.... well I benched 435 at a weight of 180# with no bench shirt back in 1980!

I'm not certain it's even possible. Assuming for a second you're talking about using calipers they wouldn't compensate for intraabdominal fat, myelin and a lot of other places fat gets stored. Not sure what level fat levels can fall to that would interfere with proper physiology without overstressing the liver or destroying muscle. Guy did have great back definition but I really doubt that's 3% bf.

yeah...but one thing you probably don't know is that the Olympic gymnast in the pic is far away from being a natural

considering that bodybuilders generally only maintain that low bf for extremely short periods of time, it's highly doubtful a gymnast (or anyone else) would just sit around there all the time.
