Reply With QuoteIn Tom Venuto's book Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle there is a picture of him. Underneath, the caption says he's at around 3.7% at that point. That's the leanest I know of.

The lowest body fat %
Just a bit curious, whats the lowest anyone has ever got their body fat % down to on record?
i know bodybuilders get to about 4 - 5 % but has anyone gone below that?

There is a limit on what you can get it down to before dying. Even Tom Venuto doesnt keep his at 3.7% for too long or he'd run into problems.
His is one of the lowest ive heard of/seen though.http://www.getlifting.info

Clarence Bass used to get down ridiculously low. I've seen pictures of him; he claims hes a bodybuilder, but hes too fucking lean.

watch somebody you love battle anorexia and have panic attacks when they sit down to a bowl of cereal or a fucking sandwich, or do excessive cardio and situps until they're in tears.
you won't tell me to shut up then.

I was at the Minnesota State Fair and I decided to get my body fat % tested. Somehow they came up with 2.6% body fat. Haha I don't know if that was right. But they put my name up on a big board that said Lowest Overall %: then my name. I felt special
