bf%

[dooie]

Hey guys

I just did a fitness assessment and the scales (just normal scales) read 17.9% bf WTF last time I checked about a year ago on a different set I was around 11? R these accurate? Can someone please give me a reasonable estimate? I'm 83kg and 180cm

Also I want to do a natural bb'ing comp within the next 2 years! Do I have a good base? I don't really know where to start? I live in Aus. Any Tips or anything would be very much appreciated!

9-10%....not where near 18%

[zaggahamma]

agree ....closer to 10%

[auslifta]

Yeah around 10/11. Didnt you do a cycle of sust before?

Yeah bro, about a year ago. Not that you can tell lol, Only did 10ml, was pretty much useless haha,

[dooie]

That wouldn't effect me doing a natty bb'ing comp though will it?!

[auslifta]

It's a moral issue. I personally don't think you should, natural is just that. You will always have an advantage having done it.
It should well be out of your system by then.

that photo is pretty average to give you a decent estimate on your body fat %. and as a natural lifter / bodybuilder myself id say that your not natural anymore. im sure you think it didnt do anything or its out of your system ect. but to be honest as soon as you stuck a needle in you your not natural anymore.



youve got a good base and im sure with the right diet youd come in well..

[dooie]

Ahh I see where your coming from! But I'm sure there are ALOT of 'natty' bbers that get on the gear! Like you said auslifta it's all about your morals! I'd like to see how I go in a natty comp without anymore gear, just need to be pointed in the right direction! Have u done any comps in aus auslifta???

[auslifta]

Yeah 2, natural ones. Not saying where or when though. Goodluck, it's all about consistancy. Keep on top of it.

[zaggahamma]

Well said

yeh for an anus

[dooie]

I was wondering when they'd be banned

Dooie I'm in Aus too... what scales did you use? Pinch test is most reliable for availability, thos scales are crud. Said I was at 24%, where I would more likely be at 12%. It asks for my height and weight and if you were to put me up against the BMI I'm overweight - so I recon the scales just do that.

Thanks for your honesty too (re. using roids a year ago and going in a natty comp). I think that if you aren't using them as part of your conditioning for the competition then you are natural - to many bb'rs use roids and go in natty comps.

Those scales sux. They read way too high for me too.

same they say i have 20% bf while i have 14%, you look around 10-11% bf.
