That guy at the lowest could be 5%. Highly doubtful in that pic he is lower than that. Olympic gymnasts during the Olympics and major comps might get to 3% but not all year long. These guys throw up and are on the edge of being anorexic in some cases. They eat a ton of carbs. A gymnast training is unreal and blows any BB's out of the water. They have to be as strong as possible for their bodyweight. And please Apenis DO NOT compare yourself to this guy. He has visible muscle, you don't. Your muscles have no shape or size. Anyone including my fat ass if they were as skinny as you and never lifted a weight you will still see the muscles we are born with. You want to impress someone. Eat the way you say you eat (2600 cals a day), stay lean and gain significant muscle and strength. Right now all you are is skinny as hell. NO muscle and NO strength. Not a good mixture.

Getting there.

You have to be full of shit to work there.

Anssi is obese and out of shape. He won`t even post a picture. Dave Palumbo said he looks awful and is crazy. Like mentally crazy. Those are his words, not mine.

Actually everybody at MD feel you are mentally ill. Hope this helps.

Do you realize at 136 lbs, which he weighs,if he was at 5 percent, if he lost 2 lbs of fat, he would be 2 percent. Clearly he has done so as his weight has been as low as 133 on occassion.

A 2lb fat loss would bring him closer to 3% whereas 2% would bring him closer to a hospital.
The fact that he weighed 133 before does not support your assumption that he was 3%. He could have had less muscle tissue or been dehydrated at that lower weight.

What would you consider a valid reason for him to have a lower bodyfat level than 5%?

Meh. I did gynastics for years. Rings will build shoulders like that over the years. The exceptional biceps are more genetic. Some guys have them, some don't. I've seen enough of these guys to know that he is probably 5'6" or shorter, about 145lbs and his legs are not as spectacular as his upper body. Legs, besides the floor exercise and vault, are used mostly for balance, not strength, in the various events. Hope ya feel better about yourself.

Where did you learn to do maths?

At 136lbs and 5% bodyfat he has 6.8lbs of fat and 129.2 lbs of lean body mass.

If he loses 2lbs of fat he would have 4.8lbs of fat. 4.8lbs as a percentage of 134lbs equals 3.5 percent.

Indeed. Keeps the mind sharp.

I have a presentation to attend on the Theory of Everything. It just may tie up Hawkings loose ends. Who knows.

The only thing clear is that you changed your figures!
You offer absolutely no evidence to prove that his weight loss of 3lbs was due to a drop in fat levels. Have you considered dehydration, muscle loss or a different set of scales?
Can you provide the records of his weight?

Of course not. That is nitpicking.

The man could easily lose 3 lbs of fat if he wanted. Thats a mere walk in the park my friend behind the lens.
