I'll try that, could you take a look at diet - see if theres anything else you could suggest. I don't eat the same thing everyday but this would be about typical of the breakdown of diet. Cheers.

I've changed diet slightly to incorporate more fat (healthy fats) so that for the last 2-3 weeks it has been 40% protein, 40% carbs, 20% fat (or thereabouts).

Don't feel I've made any really progress though shifting the stubborn fat on chest and .

Any ideas?

Hamstring Injury

Want to try and make sure I am fit for the weekend. Have been restingit and is feeling better but I can't stretch it fully yet. Should I keep resting...

Cheers.

Was aware that they might not be completely accurate, was just using them to see what fat I was losing.

Gone from about 170 (8.5%) to 165lbs (7%). Don't want to lose any more weight, just the fat.

Got the percentage from scales I bought that measure it. Maybe they're not accurate. Weight is 165lbs and about 7%. Abs starting to show which I understand is normally at about 7-8% body fat. Do lots of sprints, playing football twice a week. Weights 2-3 times a week. Eating plenty of healthy fats, ...

Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply.

Read the articles. diet is around 2200 cals, recently has been 170g protein, 280g carbs, 50g fat.

So the split typically has been about;

35%, 55%, 10%

Is the fat too low?

Fat in diet

Hi, Is it bad thing to have too little fat in your diet. Typically I am consuming between 40-50g (about 10%) of fat a day in diet. I am trying to reduce the carbs slightly and from meal planner this would drop fat levels to below 40g. I don't want to do this if it would have an adverse affect? Thank...
