    My ab journey (with pictures)

    @dawn16 Have an up vote. I was doing moderate carbs and my pooch would not budge. Went low carb and IF and suddenly progress with similar calories.

    [DEXA] 24F, 5’9”, 140.5 lbs., 28.2% BF

    @hoganwynne Congrats on your great progress! You really look fantastic. Don't be surprised if the scale goes sideways on you for a while. I think you're going to see your body rearrange itself quite a bit as you get used to weightlifting. Keep in mind that smaller may be heavier and that's...

    DEXA Results: 24 y/o, 5’5”, 142 lbs, 31% BF

    @7an13l Am I the only one who doubts she's as high as 31%? I know there is a margin for error, but she looks leaner than me and I just scanned 26.3%. I suppose my scan could be too low. Edit: here's the photographic guide on muscleforlife…

    I think someone took a video of me at the gym

    DEXA 6'2"/32/187 lbs 38.7% on the bright side I have great bone density 👍

    DEXA 6'2"/32/187 lbs 38.7% on the bright side I have great bone density 👍

    @prophecy7777 I'm having trouble believing your DEXA. I think you're significantly leaner than 38.7%. Have you seen the Muscle For Life photo guide to bf%? Scroll down a bunch...

    I feel I’m too short for my gym’s power rack

    @magnusnr If you decide to squat outside the rack, practice failing with an empty bar. There are videos that teach the technique and your practice sessions will encourage your gym to invest in more accommodating setups since this is a noisy activity.
