I mean is it legit just not eating alot and you can get to 8%? Is that how it goes?

 

[pizza]

tryharding yes

 

[lutte]

eat clen, tren hard etc

 

[SkinjobCatastrophe]

Yeah if you stop eating or eat very little you will get to 8%. Seems really inefficient and bad though when you could also exercise and lose fat quicker without starving yourself

10-11% is ideal, i want 8% purely for self gratification

you're going to feel like shit.

 

[TsarTsar444]

you're going to feel like shit.

I would just do it for like 1 month at most, purely for having it achieved while im still young

 

[isis_Bleach]

it took my friend a couple months to be 150 8%
so i would diet to 140 if u want it quick

Fat loss is 85% diet, 15% exercise

 

[TITUS]

Cardio helps.

 

[nastynas]

do 400m runs, best way to lose fat trust me.

 

[Bewusst]

it's literal starvation for most people

 

[datboijj]

it's literal starvation for most people

My definition of starving is when the body has no more fat reserves
and starts actually fully eating it's own organs
this only starts at 2% body fat
so generally almost no one ever starves even if they do a 50 day water fast

Forget about one digit bodyfat, even bodybuilders with several exp struggle to do that,instead aim for 12-15% with 80% clean, 20% junk food and workout 3x times per week

8% is tough unless you are really dedicated. 15% is enough for most people and even if you are a person with a bloat in face problem 12%-13% should take care of that. Also staying below 15% probably slows down adding muscle naturally if you are trying to bulk some.

Yeah but you will look starved and not good. So wouldnt advise it

 

[ratiorichard]

Btw girls prefer man with 15% bf

The most attractive male body-fat percentage: is it possible to be too lean? — Foxhound Studio

The main scientific theory explaining why we find certain traits attractive is that they showcase genuine advantages (study, study, study). For example, the healthiest body-fat percentage range for men is between 10–20% (study), so we’d expect that amount of fat to be considered the most...

I am losing weight by eating in a deficit, fasting intermittently and walking. But I need to do weights too

getting there is a matter of time if you have the correct diet. Maintaining it is the complicated part. I was an athlete before and I was 10-11% bodyfat. The best way to maintain is to exercise a lot or become a literal athlete

8% is not possible without roids no matter how you go about it. What ends up happening is you get stuck at 10% until you look like a skeleton and that’s when it drops further to 7%. To get that muscular look at that low body fat you need roids.

Yeah, you body can't function properly at such low bf, so it'll keep shedding muscles and replacing them with fat until your emaciated. You need healthy amount of bf (as little as you can have without exercising, at least) to produce hormones (unless you get them some other way.
