Most people in the USA should watch this video instead of watching another copy of their preferred media. Thanks for being real in today's plugged-in world.

The guy has the ethics and the courage to contrast his real life and non-photoshopped pictures with an author’s totally crafted pose and modified front cover picture. That’s a steel man comparison.

Grant, I would’ve never guessed that you weigh 220 I don’t know who the hell could think that you’re chubby at all. I totally get what you’re saying it’s great to be strong and lift but you still have to have a life. You can’t do something that’s unsustainable for a long period of time, and be happy. And that’s the byproduct of being stronger, it creates an overall better sense of well-being, because you feel better and are stronger.

Im 5'8, 220. According to that same chart, I'm "supposed" to weigh 154. A recent dexa scan has me at 20% bf, which means I'm carrying 44 total lbs of body fat. If i could cut down to literally 0% bf, i would weigh 176. That means that, according to that chart, at 0% body fat I would be 22-lbs overweight. I got out of the Navy in 1993 and I thought that, for sure, the military would have had all of that stuff updated by now.

@Jdm5299 Жыл бұрын

Details scans are wildly inaccurate. Give yourself enough 5 percent. For you go be a low bodyfat you'd probably have to be 160-165. Not zero. When you lose weight, you inevitably lose muscle. Truthfully, you'd probably be more like 12 percent if that if you went down to 160-165 pounds.

@dard4642 Жыл бұрын

@@Jdm5299 My point isn't about practical fat loss and actually cutting to 0% bf. My point is that, considering only my lean mass I am still overweight according to that chart. Also, every technology we use to measure body fat -- including hydrostatic weighing -- has an error measurement. Then, each individual machine or apparatus within each technology has its own tolerance measurement. They are no more likely to weigh you too heavy than they are to weigh you too light. That's not how standard deviation is interpreted.

@bigmitch7901 Жыл бұрын

Great to hear. I'm also 5'8, and my goal is to get to at least 200lbs between 15-20% bodyfat. I wasn't sure if this was even possible genetically. I'm 170lbs atm. May I ask, what is your wrist and ankle circumference? Do you have thick bones?

He called Grant chubby 😂 these aesthetics/body builder types have the most ridiculous expectations of what lean and healthy looks like

They don't actually have concrete expectations. They're beauty pageant contestants who call people fat to be bitchy.

Love this posting. The words "enough," "average," and "normalcy" have vanished from the vocabulary of this generation. Instead, they have been equated with being a "loser." An exaggerated emphasis on aesthetics has led to mental illnesses. What truly matters is being there for your loved ones, not just having six-pack abs. That fleeting glance from someone at the beach won't have any lasting impact, no matter how defined your physique may be. It's an illusion to believe that you are the protagonist in other people's lives. Work hard and train diligently without pushing yourself to the brink of exhaustion. Maintain a clean diet while adjusting it according to your goals and feedback. Give yourself sufficient rest. Be hopeful but also relaxed at all times. Find contentment and satisfaction within yourself. Seek balance and modesty. Focus on building your character, as it is far more valuable than having a superficially attractive body for a short period.
