Right - here goes. I know I should have done some other shots of back, Quads etc but I am new to digital photography and am computer illiterate......I will be amazed if this actually works!

6ft tall
205lbs
26%bf according to my scales!
Was bloody shocked when I found out I was 26% BF......diet time for fat boy I think!

Mate

Dont use scales. I had the same shock when i 1st braugt some, thinking i was around 13% at the time.

When i got on the, i was 31% BF!!!

I emaild the manufacturer about it, and they responded telling me that the scales are not made for body building type athletes.

I got some calipers and i was actually 12% at the time, not the 31% the scales told me.

Yes i also have to agree those scale things are rubbish.....any of you lads tell us where we can get a good set of calipers

mark · 16-02-2005, 01:54 PM

Thank fcuk for that! I knew those scales were crap!!!!! I still need to loose some fat though cos my abs are non existant...... I always miss hitting a more cut look for summer and just look big and bulky- this summer gonna try to cut a stone of fat to get ripped....... scared though cos last year lost a stone for summer but recon it was muscle!! Clen and ECA time.......

I'd also like to know where to get some calipers....... ones that lie on the right side!

TYSON · 16-02-2005, 02:05 PM

Those calipers sound great lol, im using clen and diata by chef x to great results so give that a try a slow process at 2lbs loss a week but it will be gone 4 summer and you wont loose muscle

megatron · 16-02-2005, 02:32 PM

Just get the diatia diet. You won't need the drugs, you don't even have much BF anyway.
