Enough of your bulshit Ani, just get some calipers and measure your bf%.

As much logic or fact as your side may have, it's still Ani's recount on what he saw and observed happenned to him. As "incorrect" or "making no sense" as it may be, I think "bullshit" is a bit harsh a word to use.


What's the consensus on "having some fat on you so you can burn it during workout"? I was wanting to burn off my fat as first priority before building mass. Lean mass, and not too much. I still want to fit into most of my current clothes.

Burning fat quickly will be 95% diet related, IMO.

Yeah. I plan to do that. I've heard rumours that it's good to leave some fat on you so you can use it during your workouts, so I don't know if I want to be that extreme in the diet department or leave some padding for "energy". It sounds like a wive's tale to me, but perhaps there's some hidden reason that I'm not aware of.
