Thread: Body Fat Question

    Body Fat Question

    What is the ideal body fat percentage I should reach prior to cycling?

    I am 28, 6'5 280 pounds and currently 28% body fat down from 40% over the past 2 months of training. I have not trained consistently for about two to three years; however, prior to that have cycled a few times and have been very big and lean about 265 lbs @ 14% bf. I am adding clen to my diet and cardio routine and have no problem getting down to what I need to before starting.

    I am going to stack whinny and something, just not sure yet. Just trying to lean out and get hard again.

    Any thoughts appreciated.

    IMO..cause I was FAT before
    I started,I was also up in the
    high 20's%. Its best to get down
    in the low 20's even upper teens
    before starting.
    Winny stacked??

    Its best to have a couple good
    years of training before hitting
    the sauce,need to work those
    muscles before sticking IMO

    I would have to agree with this. Running Winny at 28% IMO will be a waste for you. The only thing that is going to make you really drop weight is diet, cardio, and training. The Winny will help harden you up, but not unless you are under 15% to start.

    I echo this, at least to 15%, your aesthetic benefits will be much greater.
