11 weeks puts me waaaay ahead of schedule since I’ve been mostly dieting since the end of January. I’m 6.71 now, I stepped on stage and won last year at 4.8% and that was measured after I carbed up on Friday and Saturday morning the day of the show.

Jerry is right, genetics plays a huge part in fat distribution. My lower abs and low back are always the last to go and usually it’s gone the week of the show in the depletion phase.

I start dieting early so I don’t have to kill myself. The most difficult part of my diet is during the last week in the depletion phase (if needed)

For whatever reason I can’t load pics on here from me phone otherwise I’d post a pic where I was 251 with abs

Post by: joswift on June 21, 2020, 11:54:50 PM
the drier you are the higher your BF% because your water percentage of your overall weight is less

If you were 5% onstage dry as a bone then two days later when you have added 15lbs of water and no fat would make your BF% even lower, no one looking at you would say your BF % was lower they would call you smooth.

It seems everyone always overlooks this simple point
They claim Muntzer was 3% when in fact he was probably at around 6 or 7, maybe more due to how dry he came in.
A waterlogged guy would in fact have an overall lower BF %
BF% are irrelevant..its down to how dry you are.

Gotta love the critics on here that thinks I’m lying...lol. What do you use for a baseline to prepare for a show? I use two methods mainly and another at my Dr’s

1. 7pt skin fold

2. Hydrostatic

Sounds like when most people on here get ready for a show they’ll just “wing it” but at this point 6.7 isn’t contest shape and just started my precontest cycle about a week and a half ago.

But enough here. I would say if someone is going to talk crap or criticize, come do the show(s) with me.

Ontario; Toronto area still no open gyms.  I think the only way to cross the border now is by flying, but they still have a rule in place that you are supposed to quarantine for 14 days after visiting US.  Hoping gyms will reopen in  the next couple weeks, and border restrictions will ease up by August.

I posted a valid point which you chose to ignore...
I wasn't talking crap or criticising you

Your BF% is totally irrelevant to onstage condition if you dont get your water levels right.

And if you are 6.7% now what would it be if you dried out now for two days with diuretics?

That was dried out. If you read the first post I said this was within an hour of waking, no food, no water and the night before a thiazide. I was as dry as I could be. This is what I do every week. BF isn’t irrelevant. So I’ll ask you again, besides looking in the Mirror or getting validation from others, how do you measure your progress? How do you what your baselines are if you don’t monitor your progress?

If I stepped on stage now at 6.7 dry and someone else comes in at lets say 5.5 holding a little, conditioning wise and depending on the genetics, I’d more than likely get beat on conditioning

That's why a lot of bodybuilders will be surprised when they hear Jerry Brainum say when asked what percent a bber is at on stage, "A ripped bber will be anywhere from 5-7%, and I'm talking shredded. There are a couple of rare guys that can get to 4%..."

There is a lot of baloney in regard to BF percentage claiming 2-4% and the laughable Coleman claiming 3% offseason and .333 onstage. I'm surprised nobody in the bbing media has called him on this laughable claim.

Mirror and feedback from a trusted person..thats it, skin fold tests are OK as a guide that you are coming down in fat but as for estimating your % they are inaccurate
And you seriously go and dunk yourself in water to get a measurement that is also not that accurate, even the best tests can be out bu 2-3%

Fair play to you if thats what you do,. I couldn't be bothered.

With my genetics for getting hard, I just feel like I need to implement those guides. The hydrostatics are done at a college where testing is done with athletes everyday but I’ll only go in about once or twice a month.

I don’t (not that you or anyone else does) like to go into a show not thinking I did everything I could to win. I don’t have that mentality which is why I didn’t do the Nationals last year 8 weeks after I won the Cal. I’m not a big person and felt I needed to add more size to compete and win at that level. I can’t just jump into shows because I feel like it, it has to have a purpose.

so if you get up in the morning and look in the mirror and think "yep, bang on the money this week" and then you do the callipers or the water tank and it tells you you have regressed or made no progress what do you do?
Do you ignore what you see and trust the callipers and the water tank or trust the mirror on what you do next?

And for the record if you’re 6 1/2 or 7% on stage it just means you didn’t die hard enough which is the way most people are right now or at least these days it’ll train hard enough diet hard enough And flat out don’t work hard enough I don’t want to do the little things that it takes to win anything less is being done half assed.

Because you have no measurables or baselines to go by. And I doubt you look this year round. I’m 2 weeks post contest here and, no offense, there’s no way in hell you could beat me on stage which is what this is all about

I do look like that year round, I can post pictures anytime showing that level of vascularity and shape
If thats 2 weeks out then you are waterlogged

I couldn't beat you onstage, I don't have your size, but claiming silly BF% when in reality they dont matter is the topic we are talking about

This was my last condition in 2018 and i was still 6lbs over in my estimation, I was still soft in the hams and glutes

And for the record if you’re 6 1/2 or 7% on stage it just means you didn’t die hard enough which is the way most people are right now or at least these days it’ll train hard enough diet hard enough And flat out don’t work hard enough I don’t want to do the little things that it takes to win anything less is being done half assed. I started coming down in January so I’ve already been dieting for 51/2 months

Actually if one is 6% onstage it means he DID diet enough!

3% onstage is bro mythology.

Great physique. I don’t have the genetics to stay that lean year around, it would kill me especially when trying to move to another weight class. I start coming down usually at 20 weeks out so by now, 101/2 weeks I can cruise in. How old are you?

For the record, I take back what said, you could probably beat me.

Thank you
I have never criticised your physique I think you look fantastic, especially your earlier photos and managing to maintain that at your age is a credit to you.
I just have differing views on BF% numbers, I couldn't tell you what mine has ever been, pretty much the same for macros
I have been on a carnivore diet since Xmas I don't count anything, just eat meat dairy and eggs, Im never hungry and eat about 60-80gms carbs a day, it isn't a chore to stay in shape, in fact I don't think I could get fat on this diet even if I tried.

Good luck Coach, hope you come in razor sharp and blow them all away!

I've never found you to be witty or gifted with words, which is obviously your self concept. Instead, I think you are a half-wit who is desperate for attention.

if you're only eating meat, dairy and eggs are the carbs from the dairy?

how many times a day are you eating.  I recall anothe poster on this board (can't recall his name) went sort of carnivore but was still eating 6 times a day

Just curious - would you share what a typical day of eating looks like for you.

so basically a keto diet

I your only source of carbs is yogurt and cottage cheese I'd guess you're under 50 grams of carbs most days.

if Im eating carbs its not keto, I would say around 80gms carbs average, there is sugar in the yoghurt, its the only high fat yogurt I can find, 99% of yoghurt these days is low fat

depends on whether you're in ketosis or not
Probably not if you're eating 80 grams a carbs per day

I use this suff which has 6 grams of naturally occuring sugar per cup
https://usa.fage/products/yogurt/fage-total-5

I use this cottage cheese which also has 6 carbs per cup (and almost twice the protein as the yogurt)

trying to stay in ketosis whilst eating 150-200gms of protein is damn near impossible, your body breaks down the protein to glucose anyway and takes you out of ketosis

I dont ever count anything on this diet, I just eat when I  feel like it, I never have breakfast, I eat about 4 hours after I get up.
Im never feel like eating in the morning so the "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" shit always had me thinking I had to eat first thing, I do everything instinctively now, sometimes I go all day without eating if I dont feel like it.
I do have to be careful though because I seldom get very hungry, I could go days without food if I wanted to, I know its not good for my goals though.
