The Ugly Truth Of Extreme Fat Loss **negative side effects** 

Yes the people! Now I'm getting fairly lean (contrary to what my scales say), I thought I would put together a little video running through some of the downsides of being at a low body fat. If you have any questions, throw them in the comments and I'll get back to ya. The first track is XY Constant - Run (MORRT Remix) and the background music is Jarheed - Never (linked in description). Hope you enjoyed my sick acting in the re-enactments too! Lollzzzzzz x

This guy is a perfect amount of shredded. More than that and it’s to much, you can wear a hoodie and people won’t even notice, but if you want to show off you can wear a t shirt and look jacked.

One side effect you forgot to mention: Paper cuts are your true enemy

When I was ripped I experienced the feeling of "I've gotten what I wanted (in good shape) what now?"

When you eat 3000-4000 calories a day but still have a single digit bf% because your metabolism is off the charts.

Bro whenever i go mad binge eating, i feel like a failure and ask if it’s even worth to workout again lol.

Love how the only three groups of people with energy drink addictions are the bodybuilding/strength community, gamers and people named Kyle. I’m here for it

I remember when I dieted the hardest I became obsessed with cooking videos on RU-vid, to the point where I was staying up late watching them

I like how calm and relaxed the setting is, the jumpcuts and the overall volume/tone give off a documentary vibe.

One more thing: You can’t stay for long in water. I hate that. Really.

Refeed: One minute you're enjoying a donut, next thing you know you're lying on the ground semi concious eating the crumbs that fell off your third box of cookies, no regrets but half regrets

Recovered from an eating disorder overtime and I noticed better results in the gym and a higher libido

At first i was like he isn't even that shredded, then he took of his shirt

👍I smashed that like button the moment you said, “When you can’t perform literally your sole purpose on planet earth, I’d just order a pizza because shit’s gone too far.”😂

Keeping it real bro. This Chanel bro. You are the most honest guy I know on here talking about real life struggles. Watching this and saying yes finally someone else who is experiencing the same diet soda dependency and cravings as me. Keep up with this stuff bro.

Mad how so much of this is just psychological Great vid

This was all really solid advice! I'm definitely going to incorporate the track your binge mindset. I'm really only cheating myself when I don't. Thanks for being honest. Def gonna sub!

I’m not one to usually leave comments on videos but I have to say that I am absolutely loving the videos you’re making Joe! I’ve been watching your content for about 5 years and it just keeps getting better and better. 🔥 Thanks 🤘

Thanks for making a really honest video about the mental health side of the fitness hobby that we love. It's all we don't talk about it enough. Thanks, Joe.

I appreciate the real talk. Talking about the mental issues that come with a strict diet is much appreciated.

“If you can’t perform your soul purpose on planet Earth then I’d just get a pizza in man. Shits gone too far.” 😂😂😂😂😂

Honestly mate been subbed for a bit now and the quality of the videos is banging, become a lot more natural in front of the camera aswell, smashing it lad x

How have I only just discovered your channel. You’re so down to earth and realistic about fitness and I like what you mentioned about eating disorders. It’s why Ive never calorie cut because I am struggling with body dysmorphia but I would like to try it one day.

This is the most genuine realest video I've ever seen. Lots of relatable topics but I don't have an awesome physique like you! 👍

I notice I'm cold all the time when my body fat gets below a certain point. I little bit of fat goes a long way at retaining body heat, apparently.

Love how Joe gives you useful info while also making you piss yourself laughing

That was really helpful! Also nice to understand andy objectively explained. Thank you for sharing your experiences!

Joe, live vicariously through me! I got back from my holiday last week and was like, yeaaah, back to the gym Monday! I sit here over looking my overhang (stomach) on my fifth day of bingeing following work... I am defo ok! Haha! Back to it tomorrow, defo, defo, DEFO!

Issue number 3 is the most reliable thing ever. I just want to eat everything all the time.

Number 3 is so true, literally had the unhealthiest relationship with food of my life. Just viewed everything as a number and not substance

I love how very real you are. Funny and honest. Thanks for that. :)

Loved the editing style, very well done

Great video this, I think people presume just because it's you cutting, that you don't experience any of these issues and it's a walk in the park. Good advice on tracking your binge as well!

Food isn't an issue for me, it's the exercise i'am finding hard between tight joints stiff hip flexes and bones that constantly crack and pop, still going strong now for four months 15st down to 12st.

Hey Joe, 3 months ago you blessed me to fist my alevels and I ended up getting my firm choice, thanks 👌

Highlighting eating disorders was so so appreciated

Your point about body building and mental health is an important one. I see a lot of RU-vidrs from the body building space who obsess over food, joking about their eating habits when they eat a simple croissant etc. To me this defeats the point. Body building is supposed to perpetrate a healthy lifestyle, but when it consumes your life and thought process so persistently, it can be mentally unhealthy. I think RU-vidrs could do more to raise awareness of this, like you have touched on in this video. I read a research paper recently that said eating disorders in women often manifests itself in the form of anorexia. But in men, it is most often with excessive bodybuilding and body-dismorphia. Often I see RU-vidrs (not you) who obsess over very small parts of their body that aren't (to them) perfect, when as to an outsider they're absolutely ripped. More discussion around these issues could be done, and I urge you to do so given your position of authority and outreach in the bodybuilding space. Thank you - Alex.

Joe: "It's not particularly difficult to go 2000 kcal over your maintenance" Me, struggling to eat 3k a day: "Whaa?"

Glad this channel showed up, good video m8

Hi mate. I like your content, your british humor is rly helping me through hard times( or as british call it, just humor) . You have my subscribe

After watching, all I have to say is FOK. FOKIN AY MOIT.

I feel like when you get that shredded it's not even meant to be attractive to women, but rather to impress guys and yourself.

Your vid came up in my recommended choices. Great vid. I'm now a subscriber 🤙🤙

Another great incline walk watch 👏🏼

Sick video mate

Good advice, liked the #trackyourbinge concept. Quality seems to be improving, keep it up!

Great video, sage advice. Nice job.

Great video thanks Joe, quality content 👍

3:53 just watching muscular Vsauce in the corner

Sweet new excuses not to get in shape, thanks

I just discovered your channel and I have to say im binging all your videos but this one hits hard. I have been on a diet last 3 months, currently going on 2200 cals per day, and shit man i can totally relate to everything in this video :D I'm going to definitely try the things you suggested because .... its getting more and more difficult.Cheers and keep up the good work, love your content.

This video is EVERYTHING!!!!! :)

I feel you bro. I've experienced all these

damn bruh, you look amazing mate! perfect proportions. im tryna get like you bro!

i like you no bs approach, good stuff man

Top lad, great content

When I saw that hummus I lost it 😂😂😂😂

I was a fan for sure... but after seeing the Coors Light stash, I just plain respect you.

Thanks for the inspiration Joe, was 22.4st in 8 months down to 18.1 st still another 6 stone to loose before I am out of NHS type 2 diabetes zone lol. Enjoy your videos you have a good sense of humour sir.

Amazing content and delivery

Side effect: having too many hookups?🤷‍♂️

nicely edited video. quality.

Hello Joe! This is the first video of yours that I've seen, but man is it accurate. I've dealt with most of the common issues you talked about since I started counting and cutting calories a year and a half ago with a starting weight of 397lbs, or 180 kg. I've cut 82 kg so far and hope to cut another 8kg or so. I didn't take a refeed day (what we call cheat days in the states) for the first year of cutting, but I'll start including a regular one now for sure. My cutting progress slowed down when I went back to school, but I still want to get to my goal weight and hit some non-scale goals. If for no other reason, I think this video helps me feel a little bit more normal about the issues I've seen since I started this thing. Thanks!

Class video mate 💪

Watching this eating the chilli I just whizzed up from your recipe. Hope I turn out this shredded I’m gonna be eating it for weeks. Joe Delaney is my hero

Literally feeling the same way as u Joe, on a 800 calorie deficit and currently at 7% body fat and I literally think of food all day, constantly thinking of my next meal and how many calories it’s gonna be

Thank you I really needed this information

Dope format

When I am dieting, when I find my self wanting to eat, or thinking of food all the time, is almost always due to not enough fat. Try swapping some carb calories for fat calories such as avocado, bacon, or sausage. Ive found that half an avocado, 4 slices of bacon mixed in with about 1/2 a pound of sausage for break fast has be good for a solid 5-6 hours before food is on the mind again.

Sick video Joe, nice one lad

This was a great vid!!

Loved the video! Thank you for this. I was wondering could you do a video about how to approach fat loss with exercise and HIIT that won’t cause strength and muscle loss, and nutritional aspect of that too. Thanks!

Manifested the secret!! I love it 🤭

Thanks for keeping it real

love youre content bro!

Great vid!

Hey man, I thought it was cool that you own up to your binges, I liked the bit about where you said "i'm not particularly proud of that... but I'm here to help than look cool" You could have played it off that you're disciplined all the time, but you didn't. Good job on the vids.

Next level content lately

Thank you for this! Really interesting :)

This was really helpful thank you.

« Look great, feel like shit ! That’s bodybuilding son ! » 😅😉

summary of my 5 days fast: day 1; got really hungry around dinner time, managed to go to bed without eating. day 2; no hunger. day 3; spent 2 hours looking up recipes on Pinterest. day 4; no hunger. day 5; woke up, stayed in bed watching a 12 hour Gordon Ramsey cooking compilation, slept dreaming about food. day 6; ate a steak, not hungry anymore, but I have 4 gigabytes of food recipes sitting in my subconscious, dancing around.. day 7; testing three of those recipes.. honestly, I just wanna have chicken breast and broccoli and I'm full. day 8; normal eating day 9; I want to fast for another 3 days! it was soooo goood!

Underrated RU-vidr.

Such a great vid! 😃 Although I'm new to MyFitnessPal and lifting and wouldn't exactly call what I'm doing a cut (as I've never even bulked), I can relate to most of this...but I'm still wondering if this stuff applies to men more than women? As women don't typically get to as low a body fat percentage as men, or at least it's not healthy for us to do so. Also, just be glad you don't have that Time Of The Month to contend with or your binges would probably be happening far more frequently!! 😂😭🙈 It makes staying on track so much harder!

Hard part for me is the social aspect. I have to forgo meeting for dinner out at restaurants as well as limit partying, drinking etc.

Aldi salted caramel ice cream is life 😂

Love your physique bro you look great 🤟🏾 bet Ibiza was sick

Surprisingly honest and informative video - good job! But, have you thought about intermittent fasting?

You literally have the best body I can imagine other than maybe a tiny bit of volume and still be that shredded idk if that’s realistically possible tho but 😮 wow!

Refeed days helped to keep me sane during my previous cut, without them I wouldn't have been able to sustain the deficit. Some of them did end up becoming binges though ngl. Thanks for the vid Joe

Sick vid mate

Massive shout out to Joe for considering mental health / eating disorders and the ways that they manifest. It’s important to have balance in life. Don’t become too obsessive about calories and the way you look. Consider all aspects of your wellbeing and look after yourself.

Why don't you combine gym with intermittent fasting? Avoid all of the negative side effects of low calories and stop feeling hungry while reaping the benefits of increased HGH

I was pretty lean during the summer and overall just felt hungry and tired all the time

wow can relate. good video man

i love he just uses that green knife for everything

7:52 you just hit your protein goal!

I found this video unexpectedly funny

Great advice thanks dude

I am SO glad ive found your channel and even this video. I was 'Obese' and started dieting a couple months ago. Now down to 14 stone which i'm feeling great about but heavily addicted to energy drinks! I drink these Reign drinks (any other caffeine BCAA style drinks), because they are zero sugar and calories which have helped me cut out added sugars completely but i cant break this damn addiction :(. So close yet so far. Anyways, keep it up Joe, you are inspiring me!
