My diet in progress

I still want to see these pics of 110-115kg lean naturals Mick is talking about.

110-115kg at 186cm and 15% body fat gives a FFMI in the 27-28 range. Well above the limit said for natural lifters. Not sure where Mick is seeing all these genetic freaks walking around.

Someone at 120kg natural and the same height is likely to be well into the 20%BF. Not what I would consider lean or healthy.
 
Mick you said add 10kg WEIGHT, read the fucking post.

I did not only read it I wrote it, unfortunatly you only managed read half of the sentence, and decided to ignore the second half

Just for your and others reading this information I have quoted it again, may be this time read the whole sentece in it's entirety. I have even bolded the part you did not read or fully understand.

Personally at your height you should be aiming to put on 10kg not lose more weight, but obviously make that muscle not fat

unfortunatly I remeber reading that eggs can also spike insulin, but this can be reduced by having fat (bacon??) with the eggs.
Best bacon justification ever!

Muscle about 1.06kg per litre, fat about 0.9kg per litre..18% difference only

Don'y have any interest in trawling through persons stats, pretty much look at and footballer over 6 foot or may be look at the US American Footbal Players.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesse_Williams_(American_football)

This guy does not look obese yet he is 147kg

http://t.mensfitness.com/leisure/sports/fittest-nfl-players

Or these guys all over 100kg, all very lean, check out the abs on Terrel Owens, at 6'3" and 230lb, really he is super obese
 


Oh yes because you can so easily make 100% of your weight gain muscle.

You also left out the part where you said that at 96kg you can't be fat. Lol.

I like how you avoided my posts about your examples being outside what it is accepted that humans can obtain naturally and I even used 15% BF which I don't consider lean.

Someone 100kg 6'2 and actually lean is a going to look big, despite what Mick says. Not all of us want to be a quarter body fat.

Never considered as an excuse to eat bacon, but hell I will use it now.

Would have throught the difference in weight between fat and muscle would have been more than that, you live and learn.
 


Lol mick. NFL players. Natural status is very dubious, as far as I remember the nfl doesn't even test for growth hormone. Drug use is rife in the nfl and lower ranks.

Jessie Williams would be well into the 20%BF. Not lean in my books. No muscle definition from the pics I saw. Next.

And to top it off how many of us apart from your god like self Mick have the genetics of the elite NFL players. Lol.
 
Well who here has trained hard enough and dieted strict enough to find out what genetics they have??

So I guess now that you have seen plenty of blokes over 100kg and lean, you are suggesting they are drug cheats or just gifted.

So I could show you a hundred photos and you would still come up with an excuse as to why you can't get to that weight.

This is the issue here isn't it, your own lack of body/muscle mass?? Just beacuse you can't do it, so everyone else that has must be fat or cheating

Joel is shorter and looks pretty lean and build from what I have seen and keeps himself over 100kg, not sure what his drug use status is though?? (not accusing him of anything, I just don't know).

Mick the research done on limits of natural muscle mass was done on elite bodybuilders in the pre steroid era. It's very well accepted. They were hardly mugs in the muscle mass department. Even more recent research hasn't been able to find natural lifters going over this but you think you know heaps of people that do. Lol.

Here is some reading but there is more.

Like I said all along I count 10% as lean. Mick you seem to count 25%BF as lean. That's probably where our differences lie.

Edit. Oh yes Mick I can't get to that weight. I got to 113kg with top abs still showing. I look better and am much stronger now. Lol.

Unnecessary.

Will have a read of your link when I am not at work, always keen to learn more.

Re what I consider lean, for me it's when you have visible abs, but not neccesarely shreadded like a body builder on stage, so probably around 10-15% body fat depending on your build.
This guy looks like what I would consider to be very lean for a day in day out physique:



oh oh looks like Bazza is also on Mick's does not lift list

He is number one on the list.

what's your waist measurement [MENTION=8428]Big Mick[/MENTION];

At work and don't have a tape, but pants are generally a size 92 depending on make, legs is really where most pants I buy give out, I went to buy some dirt bike pants a few weeks back and they would not go over my legs, the ones that did were way too big on my waist, I usually wear shorts and cargo pants 98% of the time.

That FFMI is interdasting.

Mine is 21.9
Worked out I could potentially weigh 90kg @8% for 24.9. Haha.

Current LBM(if I can hang on to it all) will get me 90kg @ 17%.
Plenty room for improvement!
