Bioelectrical impedance scales and stuff like that typically are not that accurate. To begin with, they run into a host of minor issues, but they also depend on hydration status and electrolyte levels. We have seen people off by more than 5% in a single day.......off of a baseline number that is already off. Hydro densitometry(underwater weighing) and air displacement plethysmography are still the most accurate results along with DEXA scans. None really come cheap, however you can probably get a full body comp test at a local university if they have the tools for a decent price.
Personally, I wouldn't steer below 7%. I was surprised when I was 7.54% and have kept it around there. We have had anorexic patients come in and they are <5% and anything under 5% is deemed unhealthy. Those shredded body builders that you see at shows are typically at 3-4% for a show weight, but they do that temporarily(still dumb) and then are back up to >7% the remainder of the time for the most part.
buddy if it was bs i wouldn't have even posted it, as i really hate liars or show offs. if you had contact with anybody that knows me around here you would know it's the truth. my mom, grandma, sister, sister's husband, and a few friends have watched me do it.
@acezeesawtooth i don't hold weights i just do the elevated situps theirselves, i hadn't really thought about holding weights with them. i just got a treadmill not long ago and i have now been running 1-2 miles atleast 2-3 times a week on it. do holding weights really work better and does it make it alot harder? i'd like to know a little more on it.
only proof i would be able to give you is a pic and that really wouldn't prove that i do 800 elevated, but it would prove i do them. my sony camera crapped out on me about a year ago and i've been using my mom's camera (which doesn't record, i've tried numerous times to make quad and dirtbike vids)
ran/jogged 1.5 miles jumped rope, sit ups, hit the bag. few bicep curls and 2 sets of bench press. then .5 mile cool down run. today havent exercised yet but will by 9 so check back on that one guys. still working on my workout chart and calender hopefully by next week for that one
Last night I had no time to exercise. Work and school have to come first. Tonight I have lots of time though
i started my workout on jan 26th (wednesday).
i will be weighing myself every friday afternoon before working out.
last friday i was 254.8lbs.
i dont care about the body fat percent as it doesn't mean sh*t to me
i will also take a pictures every wednesday. didn't take one before starting this workout.

Today is painting, picking up RXs, going to work, brainstorming with the blaster, dicking off, then going to go lift for 1.5 hours then get in a 20 minute run.
