I've been a member for a while, but rarely have posted. From what i understand from past threads is that a large sodium consumption results in the body retaining water. So if you have a low bf% then taking in lots of sodium wont get you the ripped look.
I got a bf% of about 28% so i dont really worry too much of the sodium intake yet. But i still drink 2 gallons of water to flush most of it out of my body.
Hope that helped.

"3. INCREASE SODIUM INTAKE"
"Im not kidding. sodium is an essential mineral that is an absolute must for muscle growth. Sodium has a bad rap because it can cause water rtention-anathema tp contest ready bodybuilders. On the plus side, sodium enhances carbohydrate storage and amino acid absorption while improving the muscle's responsiveness to insulin."
hope this helps you out!
