My weight is 80kg and I am doing fat loss. My current fat is around 15% and goal is approx 7%. So howmuch protein, carbs and fats per day I need for fat loss to reach 7%? Love from india 🇮🇳
Thank you very much for mentioning the Indian gentlemans height and weight at that low body fat percentage. I’ve currently dropped from 227 to 195, but I’m 6’4”, so worried about losing too much weight and being a skeleton. If he was in the 140’s at 6’1”, and looked like that, I think I’ll look good if I drop to 180. I’ll keep going and see!
It's really quite misleading to call it body fat %, because what it really is is just a comparative index. Nobody actually knows what a given % looks like, and our estimations could be way waaay off. Like more than a factor of 2 off in either direction. All we can say with pretty good certainty is that someone looks less fat than someone else
Total body fat % relation to a "fit look" is rather similar to BMI relation to "obesity". Generallly correlated, yet poorly indicative. 1. Your height, skeletal structure and muscle mass matter A LOT in determining how you may look at different body fat % compared to how other people look at exactly the same body fat %. Your body fat% can be quite low, yet you may simply look like a twig. Or it can be pretty high, but you look like a unit, because you pack a lot of muscle, have thick bones and have a wide frame. On the other hand, your muscle mass may be well developed in some areas and underdeveloped in others. 2.Body fat distribution patterns vary significantly from person to person as well: different people differ in how they preferentially store more fat in some locations than in others. Bottom line: 2 persons with truly identical total body fat % may look VASTLY different. Chasing a certain body fat% itself is generally not the best idea. It is more reasonable to instead focus on building more muscle and losing fat by setting realistic fitness goals to satisfy your aesthetic preferences yo the extent it is achievable in the context of/based on your particular genetics and overall body structure.
Well I would like an explanation my waist is 47 inches I am six foot tall and weigh 260 my biceps are 17 inches you can see the muscle separation and when I flex you can see my chest muscles calves and thighs my PR is 3 plates on bench and 275 on incline deadlift 365 my squat is 295 I did a test to see my body fat is 20% bmi is 29% it’s just my stomach is so stubborn to go down but legs and arms look somewhat ripped so was the test accurate?
@@BuiltLeanTV the one you hold in your hands they take your weight down age height then you squeeze the machine now the reason I believe this to be true is because when I first tried that machine I was at 32% body fat and weighed 297 and couldn’t do one dip or a pull up not one push up now I can do 60 push ups none stop I haven’t maxed out dips but I can do jump off the dip bar doing a set of ten or 25 reps normal dips I can last an hour in the stair master doing 3,300 steps
6'0" at 260 with 47" waist is not 20% body fat. The test you described is ridiculous. Using the army method, and even giving you a gigachad 18 inch neck (top 1% neck) it says you are 32.5% body fat, which is obviously closer to the ground truth.
@@Youknow-l9r Measure waist halfway between hip bone and rib cage. Should generally be slightly above naval, and should be most narrow part of your waist.
Thanks for this! Also, cool to see this was at my local park. It's been a hot minute since get ups have been in my repertoire, and this is a perfect refresher.
6:27 Josh was 20% body fat? Doesn't look fat to me... 7:39 How are we supposed to know Nick was 25%? We literally can't see his body at all in the before pic.
Are there any inherent health benefits from visibly vascularity? Like, does it mean better bloodflow or is it just a purly visual thing? I always had the idea that the veins showing means youre getting better blood supply to the muscles but im not sure how true that is.
Based off your video I'm like 30% body fat but when I had my body fat measured with the pinch thing it was like 22, unfortunately I carry all my fat in my tummy, my legs, arms, and back are lean but my belly is big but I think it's because I'm still trying to lose weight
