it has duiretic properties but wont "keep you ripped year round" simply drop a little water
low bodyfat gives the.look you are looking for sub 12%
what is your current bodyfat as a matter of interest?
and i do know a bit about it but havnt personally used it so therefore cannot advise you on amounts, but i think you are going to be disappointed with results from it to be honest
unfortunately there is no.quick fix for the look you desire just diet cardio supps etc
What does a below 12% bf look like. I thought I was lean enough but this trainer at a gym made me hold a sort of device and she read the numbers on it and said "good, you Only have 16% bf" I was surprised to say the least. I have no belly (can see most of my abs). Am lean and hardish - do not have a roundish look, 'pressed' muscular chest etc ...what is going on ?
You'll have to post a pic. We're pretty good at estimating BF based on a pic.
At 16% a fairly pronounced belly would typically show up on most guys. Maybe suck-in-able at best. So I'd say her numbers are off somehow.
From my personal experience I've always seen single digit bodyfat is where the layman will start calling you ripped.
sub 4 % is ripped. i have seen guys 6-9 % with cuts not showing. everyone is different in this regard.
Yeah 16% , not me. I do not have a belly or a rounded look to my ANY AREA, be it lats, midsection, chin etc. I would think a 16% would be what a layman would say that "he just started going to the gym - we should see some changes soon".....Quote:

myth
meaning it does not work practically speaking ?Quote:

Bottom line is diet and cardio is best for that 'ripped' look. Thermogenic foods will help but the different will he so slight I wouldn't put any time or effort into them. Spend that time running up and down stairs!
