Physique Standards & The #1 Mistake of Top Fitness Models
💪 A huge mistake a lot of the best natural fitness models have made is that they get to a point where they look really good but it’s for them and they want to keep growing (past their natural limits).
💪‘Naturally’ they grow frustrated, impatient and expectantly, turn to drug use. And they trade their great looking, natural physique for a drugged up body.
What Is The Ideal Body Fat Percentage?
Anywhere between 6-10% body fat for maximum aesthetics.
Cut – 9-10% body fat
💪 9-10% body fat is a good looking level of leanness. Generally speaking, people will consider you to be in great shape. Your body and face will take on a much leaner and more angular look.
💪 Over 10% body fat and a lot of your muscle will be blurred from fat. The quickest way to look amazing is to get your body fat to 10% or less.
Chiseled – 8% Body Fat
💪 8% body fat is really the bench mark for the Hollywood physique. That’s where you’ll have very visible muscle definition, slim waist and chiseled face. At this body fat percentage, your abs pop and look down right amazing.
💪 Leaning down isn’t always enough to reveal an amazing six pack, you have to incorporate some type of v line abs workout into your routine, to really develop a great and powerful core.
💪 Fasting, training three days per week, and hitting a good balance of proteins, fats and carbs from satiating foods, will keep you extremely satisfied and solid social life at 8% body fat.
Shredded – 6-7% body fat
💪 Getting to 6-7% body fat is where you’ll look amazing for photoshoots and on video. It’s very low and probably not somewhere that you want to be all year round.
💪 Testosterone, training performance and muscle building potential may be comprised at the 6-7% mark.
💪 Below 6% body fat is not healthy and it looks completely overdone.
