Re: body fat question
What is your current body fat percentage. There is no way u can get your body fat to 5%, especially if you are 14 and weigh 154 pounds. 5% body fat is body builder and marathon runner's kind. a normal lean kid who does cardio regularly should have at least around 7 percent body fat for health reasons. its simply unhealth to have 5% body fat at your age man....
Doing cardio activities isnt enuf and i wouldnt recommend biking because it's a high intensity cardio activity taht trains for muscular endurance. I am guessin that you are doing VJB to jump higher huh? Well endurance training decerases V.J. An average marathon runner have an average of 12in vertical (from teh VJB).
I would recommend doing some high intensity skill work related to the sport you are interested, basketball, football, or what ever sport you are playing. Also, high intensity power training also burns a lot of calories. The P90X program is an excellent example.
Lastly and probably most importantly, WHAT R U EATING? From now on if you want to lose body fat, drink 16 cups of water a day minimum cuz fat tend to dissolve in water. second, no more chocolate, chips, pop, junk food, McDonalds or anything containin lots of fat and unwanted sugar. Fruits such as strawberries are good to satisfy the suguary cravings.
Those ar basically waht i did to get my body fat to 6.7% from 13%
