“Maybe abit leaner than the normal person” this is the problem here Joe, you’re comparing yourself to other people who go to the gym, that’s not the normal person. Take a walk into Tesco and take a look at everyone there and see what the real normal person looks like.
The only test thats super accurate aside from my lazer eyes is an MRI. The deca scan is not accurate. Id trust hydrostatic weighing over a dexa and depending on the skinfold caliper test being used and the person doing the testing id go with the skinfold over dexa. What you can do is if we use 3 or 4 testing methods. Cancel out the lowest in highest results and go with the middle number
@@pyroshock2789 no but this is the most reliable method of getting an accurate measuring. You wouldn't get 5 tests telling you 11% bf and 1 test saying 8%, and then go with the 8% one. if you were doing an actual experiment, youd take the uncertainty of the 5 tests and 1 test into account as well but thats too much work for this video.

@@lils8005 hi, I’ve been stuck for 4-5 weeks always being between 83 and 81, but now I’m at 79 without really changing my plan, maybe I went up with cardio a little. Because my training is: 2x strength, 5 times cardio including 1x HIT; I think I was stuck because my body was so used to be between 81 and 83 kg in past 3 years that it thought “Na, we rest here now like before”; Before 3 years I used to be at 73-75kg
Great video Joe! These tips are super useful. Question for you... have you ever tried Next Level Diet? I got a fat-loss meal plan from them that's worked wonders for me.
I used to do the skin fold caliper every few months back in university with my trainer. It showed that I was at around 12-17% body fat, depending on the time of year or my general condition during the measuring. I did not look like I was in that range. My conclusion over time was that if your goal is aesthetics, look in the mirror and determine if you need to cut or bulk. Even if you hit a numerical range that you're going for, there's no guarantee that that'll be the aesthetic range you're going for. Remember, our bodies are all different and fat shows in different ways on different people. Go to a mirror, strip down, and use your eyes. Just make sure you're not getting too skinny or too fat. Not because of visual issues, but we just don't want you to get sick.
I love how the guy went from "The skin fold calipers are probably the most unreliable method" to "The only way we can get a precise measurement is if we cut you up" after he saw the Dexa rate a stage ready bodybuilder at 15.8% lmao
I use the us army body fat calculator. In my view as long as you use the same method each time you can track your progress. Also, if you are happy with your look…that’s all that matters😊
Hey Joe, your videos are amazing, and you’ve become one of my favourite channels on UA-cam. Not only have your videos inspired me to keep on working hard in the gym, but they have also helped me through a really difficult time in my life right now. Thank you.
You are without a dought the best fitness rolemodle og youtuber out there. I have been following you for a long time now og every time you upload i can't wait to watch it.
This was the video I needed to watch. Been tracking my bfp loss over a few months on a scale, currently on 16.8 (probably more after holidays) but I still look chubby. Great job as always Joe keep it up lad ♥
Awesome video, keeping it honest and giving great advice/information like usual, keep up with the great work, closing in on a million subscribers (you deserve it)
Hey Joe my name is Steven I live in Missouri in the states you rock dude you're food budget program that your mother helps you figure out I've already benefited from that....What I just watched about the body fat you're so right about that. ..with body fat a mirror is the best way to handle it. I'm somebody who Is over 25% body fat I've got a long ways to go to burn this fat off but I've started my weight training 6 months now so thank you I've benefited so much from this I would love to support you and subscribe to this financially it's not something I can do financially but I can do this I can let you know I believe your information is very right on take care and and don't forget Jesus Christ is our savior thanks again Steven Kramer USA
disappointed because i thought this was a video on how i could lose bodyfat, cuz I'm on a similar journey to you, skinny, to dirty bulking chubby, now I'm leaner but not us much as i want to be, would love a video on how you dropped your fats without losing muscles. (oh and i should say the video quality was as always informative and entertaining loved it i was only disappointed cuz it's not what i expected but always a legend joe!)
calorie deficit (200-500 below maintenance) with the same training and high protein. Cardio is optional, just helps to increase deficit. Don't focus too hard on the scales as day-to-day factors can drastically change it, just remember to stay consistent and look at your physique for any changes
You need to give yourself more credit and claim what you have accomplished being so humble and almost denoting your progress is not helping anyone just belittling yourself mentally , you are well above this “average person “ shit ,love your videos keep them coming
Joe I don’t frogging believe that dum scanner man, I agree you must around 9 to 12 percent body fat.💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼. Thanks for sharing all this brother. Greetings from Chicago USA. Your newest sub.
@@davidvarga5010 well if your tracking your progress by say taking a photo every 3 days as long as your consistent it doesn’t matter So if you tensed your abs in every photo you are keeping it consistent
@@matthewbailey8001 yeah ok, but what I'm saying is IF we track our true body fat percentages by tensing our abs, then I think the majority of people are at a lower body fat percentage than they think they are. And I think that tracking that way is cheating, because I don't think that's how you are supposed to measure it. But I don't know
Please do a online bodyfat calculation with the online marine body fat calculator. You have to enter among standard details (gender, age, length, weight) also you waist and neck diameter. From that it gives you a figure. I think it is very precise. Interested to see what your findings are.
Here’s an important thing to remember: You might not look much of anything like one of the images but still be in the body fat%. I have about 15 percent but not as much muscle that is normally shown at 15 percent because I have a lot less muscle than that.
The thing is, most of these methods like the caliper for instance and just looking at your body only account for bodyfat directly under the skin. Fat is however not only stored below the skin but also between your organs which we can't see or measure with these methods. It might be an explanation as to why the Dexa scan is a bit higher, but most likely it's just very hard to measure bodyfat in the first place.
Glad you're uploading this after your mental struggle video as it shows you're comfortable with showing off each of your sides. The chobby and lean! :)
Normal people usually are at a low to high levels of fat but mostly in-between I would say to just take some creatine and perhaps eat some spinach with whey protein. Because what your calling "fat" isnt actually fat at all it's just your skin doesn't have enough collagen to create connective tissues. Your abs and your ribs are the only thing with good collagen levels, since the purpose of collagen is to create connective tissues and the purpose of connective tissues is to divide the muscle cell into different groups that would appear as "ripped" or "define" and it also gives you somewhat of a glow naturally
Joseph, is there a reason for the shorter vids? I’d love just a solid 20 minute vid, similar to that of will Tennyson from you. That’s probably a lot more work, but 5 mins isn’t enough fraze for my fix 💉! Some cool vid ideas would be trying the typical diet from different nations 1) UK 2) Ireland 3) France 4) US (good luck lol) 5) Canada 6) Oz Etc Or make anabolic versions of traditional dishes
This dude has some serious dysmorphia, he really said "looking about average, maybe a tiny bit leaner than most" as if 95% of people ever saw their own abs.......... very sad, hope he improves.
