Well my point wasn't so much you not knowing the specifics as it was pointing out the variability inherent to such forms of testing. Technique error is extremely common in skin-fold tests and, moreover, this method has proved to be less accurate than once thought. All I'm saying is, you may not be 25%, but you may not be below 18% either, which, in either case, disqualifies the ripped to the bone adage. I'm not trying to pick on you, I'm just trying to put what some of the others have been saying into perspective.

^ I wish I would have come sooner :bitelip:

Lurker, your arms are huge but they look like crap with your body because your so out of proportion. I think you need to stop training your arms, lose the bitch tits and then build up your chest (by far) and then back.
.

wrong they make symmetry because they are not big from the front and looking again at my chest and back i don't know what you guys are talking about i see them fine both my chest and my back and gonna try to upload another pic with my arms together with my body so you see what i talking about

He's not going around making false claims, though.:gaysign:

We aren't saying you are obese. We are just saying you aren't as lean as you claim to be.

That would be a good idea. Hit some real poses like side chest, side triceps, back double biceps, lat spread, abs and thigh, most muscular.
BTW, is English your first language?

You'd be surprised at actual bodyfat levels when measured with accurate measures, which calipers and other common measures are not regarded as being. I posted a paper or two a while back that showed competitive professional BBers in Brazil were coming in at an average of 6% or there-abouts. There have been some similar figures for other competitive BBers that show the "3% on stage" is just rubbish. You can also have abs at higher levels of bodyfat than stated in most BBing circles because most levels cited are based on measures that can be out by 8%. Realistically low teens is lean and where most people would aim to sit year round.

And, as usual, my point falls on deaf ears until Tim comes around, though his point will likely fall on deaf ears as well.
