*Interesting * body fat testing video
« on: April 24, 2016, 11:21:53 AM »


very interesting results. however, the calorie assumptions by the guy seem way off. TDEE for the guy is 3400 cals (with no training involved). i call total bullshit on that.

also, if he is 13, im probably 15 or 16 percent....shit

They don't factor in excessive water retention, it's just your total bodyweight and fat weight. So if he went back and held in a shitload of water, his bodyfat % will actually go down, while looking even worse.

Very interesting and comprehensive video. I guessed the leaner folks body fat percentage more accurately then the others.

His oversimplification of weight loss annoys me. It is very difficult to lose muscle mass if your diet and training frequency/intensity/volume is adjusted properly.

I found all of the "accurate estimates" to be inaccurate and very wrong. You have some of those fat asses without much muscle having more muscle than a Prime Arnold Schwarzenegger if you run the numbers.

Total bullshit.

That kind of study would be fun and beneficial for people wanting an accurate idea of their caloric need.

It'd be interesting to see what BF percentages the test gave for GetBiggers always claiming low bofyfat.

This is true, but most people are not interested in weight training or even athletic level training, they just want to lose weight. Some folks will take up walking or running to help burn more calories and be more fit.  For them, the advice given in the video is right on. Many bodybuilders are more concerned about muscle mass and somewhat less concerned about their general good health.

How about the guys that diet down on 2500 to 3000 cals and stop because they think they're losing too much muscle? lol. These clowns could eat 12-1500cals a day and not lose any muscle. They're delusional about the amount of muscle they have in the first place...

True. You gotta have it before you can lose it.

1000 net calories from daily activity (no exercise) is way way way too high, even for someone who weighs 222 lbs.  That's the equivalent of running about seven miles or walking about 15 miles.

BB related: how many of you would hit any of those first three wildebeasts he trotted out?

Plugged my height, age, and weight into a BMR calculator and it came up with 1800+

BMR and net calories from activity are entirely different things "doctor".

Rachel looked thick in a good way. Would hit like a wrecking ball: a big bang and over in half a second.

Did someone piss in your Cheerios little fella?  Why the aggression/frustration towards this harmless post?

Have my words injured you in the past?

I've observed him do this quite often, I believe cesspit has deep rooted insecurities caused by the massive shame he feels over the fact that he once suffered from anorexia, an illness normally only affecting women and fags, this manifests itself as regular angry outbursts on any diet related post

not ashamed at all, and like most people on this board and in the bbing community, i share a lot in common with women and fags.  

on the other hand, the haphazard numbers and nonsense advice that gets thrown around in these discussions certainly helped me along my path, hence my irritation.  hell, you don't even need a vo2max... anyone who thinks a 222 lb man will burn 1000 cals from a 15 mile walk only needs to spend a few days with a fitbit to see how delusional they are.

speaking of insecurities, i wonder why you, yamcha, and jeff enjoy insulting me for anorexia and, seemingly, no other reason?

ceph, is 1000 cals for a 15 mile walk too high or too low? Im under the impression that no one needs 1000 extra cals over their BMR even with weight training involved

Do anorexics recover or just go into a type of remission? Aren't anorexia and extreme bodybuilding both the result suffering body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)?

Nor should you be ashamed. You called it right for a lot of folks on this board and in the bodybuilding community. It would be interesting to know exactly what you feel they and you have in common with women and fags.
