Make me a counter offer then. Maintaining the tub for hydrostatic weighing isn’t cheap, and I need to make ends meet. I want to get you the most accurate measurement possible.
No no no silly. He’s not interested In accurate measurements. He just wants you to guess, then he’ll be happy. You need to take you fancy pants machine that actually tells you the real BF and GTFO
And because I commented and owe a guess to our new BF wizard,
17% good sir, thank you for the opportunity to guess.
Is this like one of those “guess the weight of the pumpkin” games? Do we win a prize if we get it right?

Dude. It’s not even 8 am. I don’t have the energy for this yet.
No, it’s not normal to ask a question, get a dozen replies answering the question while harassing people to give even more answers, then wait four months to ask the exact same question again while expecting different answers.

How long have you been consistently training for? I’ve seen your pics and you look phenomenal and you’re strong as fuck to boot. You look better than many of the guys who pump a metric ton of gear at my gym.
You have my goal physique tbh, I know genetic discrepancies dictate shape to an extent; and because I’m on the shorter side (with a broad, blocky frame) I’ll always have a stocky appearance. Wish I could get my arms to catch up to the rest of my body though (proportions).

@bulldog9899 Breaks my heart, haha. Bragging about genetics when you haven’t done anything with them is like bragging about the Ferrari you’re going to own when you haven’t passed your driving test.
@unreal24278 I appreciate the kind words. I’ve been lifting weights for 21 years, with no significant interruptions. Even when I ruptured my ACL, I train my upper body and good leg. I am on the shorter side at 5’9 with a blocky frame as well. Bodybuilding isn’t in my future, but you can still always be big and jacked, which is pretty cool.

Thats what I found ironic… I don’t believe the Op mentioned his own actual competition history.

Guys! I finally found a thread that’s more of a shitshow than my log! 
@unreal24278 regarding genetics, I assume that I have great genetics to cut out excuses for myself. It helps me build the mindset that any lack of progress or failure to reach goals is my fault

I think he might be at 12%. It’s hard to tell on people because of fat distribution and amount of muscle.
Lol, I was just about to mention that there’s no way of telling, because he’s not holding a shoe. You beat me to it!

Someone has to one day tell me what the shoe story is about.

Lol, some others on here may remember more of the specifics, but about 15 years ago (give or take), there was a guy who went by eliteballa3 who asked what his bodyfat was based on a picture of him holding up a shoe. As things happen around here, it got spun up and became a running joke. Unfortunately, the original posts were lost during site migration several years ago, but if you search his name, you’ll see it as a running joke since then.

I wonder if usernames eliteballa1 and 2 were already taken. I mean, eliteballa is a pretty dope name, so it wouldn’t surprise me. Both of my dogs and my goldfish are named that.

Do they have T-Nation accounts? Because:

Not yet. Collucci keeps blocking his accounts, so one of them (eliteballa 1) asked me to post this and ask:
What’s my bodyfat %? (if it matters, he’s been running 531 for the last year and is currently taking anabolic steroids).
