I wonder why does vag think 15% is "natural" for him at his age, build etc? Who said you need to be at 15%? You could probably improve on that.
Yes , by natural bodyfat i meant how i am built, like giving an estimation of where my body wants to be under 'normal circumstances'.
Some people are naturally lean&ripped , some others are not. I belong in the latter.
I don't need to be at 15% , i need to be as low as i can maintaining strength.
But imo it is important to have a realistic view on your body/abilities. A guy like me freaking out and orienting his training to get to 8% would make a big mistake.
Anyway , were getting way off topic...
Yeah but - are you doing everything exercise and nutritional-wise to keep it low, and you end up with 15% as being the lowest while maintaining/gaining strength? That's my point - if you could manipulate training/nutrition in such a way that you could get the BF a bit lower while at the same time gaining muscle (muscle that will need more calories and that, in return, will help prevent fat build-up).
