My bodyfat isn’t really that low, especially not now. I’m hovering around 15-18%, probably higher given the tendency of people to underestimate BF%
Under 16% is considered too low for women, and most people do underestimate body fat percentages, EXCEPT people who are purposefully not eating enough - those people frequently OVERestimate BF%.

Sound like glamping or car camping. Wine weight too much to load in a back pack!
@bulldog9899 I often feel like this on here

@Frank_C @anon96032531 what do you think of the elimination rounds format for the CrossFit Games this year? I confess I initially hated the idea but, after watching Thursday and half of Friday’s individuals events, I’m warming up to it.
Two staples of the Games, Cole Sager and Noah Ohlsen, both said in interviews they’re enjoying this year’s Games even more than the past, so maybe CrossFit didn’t completely screw the pooch with the format change.
So here’s a funny thing: a user who had a real bee in his bonnet about who was or wasn’t using PEDs in powerlifting because he doesn’t and worrying he couldn’t cope with losing at a local level to someone who does (when he’s never competed before) suddenly starts a thread where he says he’s using steroids but is amazed at how much some guys on reddit say they’re using.

Yup. Saw it too. Felt the exact same.
Taking steroids to win a sport you’ve never played before…there’s gotta be a word for that level of absurdity, and I bet you it’s in German.

If there isn’t a word, just stick a few together to create a new one

I’m saying that the Germans most likely have the word for an act that absurd, just because it seems like a language that has words like that. Similar to the word schadenfreude.

I got that, I was looking for another level to the joke. Maybe I’m just being too much of a smartass for my own good.
I got up 30 minutes ago: I am most likely missing it, haha.
Was that the thread I wrote out a rule of thumb regarding use in tested and untested Fed’s? Or a completely different?

I got up 8 hours ago and am definitely decaffeinated enough to be missing it.
Today was total crap.
We visited relatives for a feast and got 1/3 of my daily steps. I still have a good hour to get in more before bed, but nah…
Looked it up… the word your looking for is Blödmann
I have said it before I am not anti gear use for those that actually are trying to compete at the extreme high end of a given sport. I can get the mentality . I get it for someone that is at a pro level where performance puts money in ones pocket and the risk /reward ratio is rational. Never understood the use of gear when in some cases it nothing but putting a band aid over someones low self esteem or trying to impress the bros next to them.
