Would you all say 10-12% body fat is ok to maintain for life or is that stressful to body?

That's absolutely okay.

Really, 17% is probably just fine, too.

I want to stay 10-15% for life.

yeah thats fnie

Yeah, I feel good at 17% but it’s a vanity thing.

over 15% you might get estro side effects

I don’t have the abs popping.

@ronin Interesting.

So, for one, as long as you have this level of activity, don't slip below 126 g of protein.

I’ll drop to 15% and see from there. I measure using these calipers from Amazon.

I measure using an impedance scale.

i think for ideal hormone levels/libido/mental mojo

I take the metric every day.

13-15%

20g of carbs is keto

im talking bf

So, 126g protein minimum, 20g carbs maximum, mix and match fat g until you figure out how you feel great.

ye and a caloric deficit

or maintenece

you won't even need a deficit

in keto

it just recomps your body

For me, because I'm more or less a sedentary fat fuck, my break down is 107g protein min, 20g carbs max, stop fucking eating fat, you have enough on your lard ass.

maintenence or slight deficit for faster progress

It sounds good I just honestly can’t do keto right now. I feel off competing and training.

Yeah, keep it in your back pocket, man.

fat doesn't make you fat tho

fat is thermogenic

carbs make you fat

No, but if I consume too much, I won't utilize the fat on my body.

wrong you will

thats how the body works

It's easy for me to eat 200g plus of fat in a day.

thats good

ofc the right fat

animal fats

I literally can't lose weight.

not oils

and shit

Yeah, I know.
