Fat also keeps the body warm. I observed that when I get lean I feel much colder in winter than when I am a bit softer.

Yes me too. I only competed twice but the last few weeks i was wearing a shirt under my work shirt because i was getting cold so easily.

It should be mentioned that...Jim Quinn said that they did a skin fold measurement which showed 0.0% bodyfat on Flex Wheeler at the Gold's in Venice one week before the 93 Mr. Olympia. He also said Flex was the only bodybuilder to ever do that.

he wouldve had to have a skinfold of less than 6 mm, from 4 sites

athletes rarely go below 30. I suppose 10-15 might be possible... but that's not 0% fat then...

I remember from school that the minimum is 3% because the human body must have some fat surrounding the supra-renal glandula or something.
