What are you using to measure w/?

is this normal for you to be at 3.7 with still 5 more weeks to go? Serious question...it just seems like 5 weeks is a damn long time to have to maintain or drop that to 3.3, are you normally this lean with 5 out? I have no clue what that must feel like to be twice that BF btw
Mad props

Actually great question! No I am not this low usual;y and added a meal yesterday to slow shit down some. It is weird because I am eating twice as much as last year on my comp diet. I think trying to make the LtHvy class and starving shut me down. I also added a 3rd carb up meal per week for a bit.

Wow, the lethargy must really be setting in, Quad. Really weak at the gym too? It's going to be tough to maintain that for five weeks, I'm sure. Admire your dedication to what you love.

To all that gave props thank you! A lot of my ability to get suck low % BF is becasue I have been doing it so long. Seems to get easier to get low when you have been there already. I use lang and skindex calipers on a nine site reading and my GF who has done 1000's of BF reading does it. Answering groups of questions due to stamina issues!

Yeah its rough but I have done it so much. Workouts suck ass but at this point you are not growing so its moot anyway.

How many weeks have you been dieting ? What were your stats at the starting point weight, bf etc ? I am 14 weeks out 225lbs 10-11% bf, just started my diet yesterday and did my first dose/injection last week ( I wish I would have never come off ). Being that low with 5 weeks do you think you might peak to soon ?

so far 11 weeks. I was 6% something at start 228#. As I said earlier I upped my food to slow things down.

Actually yes in my last several shows and a Lt Hvy. I had to diet so hard to make weight I could not fill out and have a crisp look at the same time. Why I moved back up.
