Nah I eat loads5'10, 70kg and 32" waist. I like my dinner more than Platypus

Then get rid of it. Come on Richie.
5'10 and hovering at 92/93KG. 35" waist, 46" chest, 26" legs. Roughly at around 16% bodyfat guaging from how I looked last time I was 16%. Dropped down to 81KG which was 12% bodyfat and 32" waist back in March.
Happy to do some bodyfat readings for people at the next strongman meet which would be a 4 site test with Harpenden skinfold calipers.

I'm pretty sure that going super low BF% makes you infertile and/or impotent.
I've heard it can make you homosexual and even start liking animals and vegetables

Haha. I'm talking sub 7% levels though Your balls shutdown when you start getting this low.

A super low BF% can kill you fairly easily.

0% bodyfat is a dead person.

Can't wait for another one to be organised.
Back OT. Visceral fat is more of an issue than general bodyfat in terms if health.

I will
Off the drink again this weekend meaning (apart from a couple tonight and last Friday) I will have been off the drink for 3 weeks
Dont congratulate too hard... Mates are working or away places so short of getting ****ed on my lonesome in the house (saddo) I just aint been drinking
Anyways, I now have myself a bike I can get out on it and do some. I kinda injured my knee a bit when I went for my first 5 mile run about 6 weeks back (running on road aint fun and I only ever went 3 miles tops before which was fine) so I haven't been out as I kept pulling something when I did
.Problem with this time of year is that its pitch black when I leave for work and the same when I get home so going out is more difficult
Bradley Wiggins got down to 4% last year.
Not a good look though: http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/slipstreamsports/3434625727/
God knows where he develops all that power!

I got down to about 6% and that was my lowest this summer (you can see the pictures in the other thread). Essential fat for men is 5% and for women 10%, although guidelines vary this is what I work with for myself and clients. Currently I'm looking to bulk up over winter so am sitting at about 10% right now.
