    I just wanted to point out in my avatar, I am 5'8" 192 lbs and mid 20s bodyfat.

    The reason I bring this up is because originally I was in in the upper 30s and it destroyed my confidence when I was told I mid 20s, only to lose 25 lbs and find out my bodyfat is NOW in the mid 20s. It seems like I make progress and then lost it all. But in reality the numbers were wrong and I have to use the mirror as a progression meter. I got down to about 174 then back up to 192 when I started on TRT.

    I wouldn't rely on the bodyfat measurments too much as progress, they'll let you down for sure. Thats all I am saying.

    Thanks for the compliment, at least I took it that way. Keep in mind
    That pictured is flexed and tanning appear to make me more defined than I am. Thats why I have it up.

    Estimates with that pic were in around 23-25% average from this board.

    My point is not to argue bodyfat % but just to suggest not to rely on those numbers that much. Some clinics will give you bogus numbers to make it appear you are better off than you are, to keep you coming back and spending $$.
