Really appreciate the response on this vid, but never intended it to be about whether or not this number is possible haha. I hoped it would just help teach everyone about how they do these tests and the general risks of having super low body fat. Yes, you should question people (even us doctors!) 1.6% certainly is a number that seems impossible and maybe i should have been more up front about that, but it wasn't what i was trying to help teach you all in the video. But as always, I appreciate people watching, commenting, and i hope you are all still learning something!!

That may not have been your intention, but it's really an unavoidable part of the topic. The truth about body fat measurement is that there is no precise way to measure it. They can come up with increasingly more creative ways to come up with a relative approximation of a body fat percentage. But there is no legitimately accurate way to measure it, period. And it's also just plain stupid to think that number is even remotely close to being accurate. Your body requires fat to maintain proper health and performance. There is no way possible anybody could be that low in body fat and not have a whole host of health issues, let alone be able to perform like an elite level pro athlete.

The 2-3% was cited in a Sports Illustrated article on Heisman Trophy winner Charles White at USC. They included that info in the article because it was so abnormal. That was in the early 80’s and body fat was becoming a popular subject in the world of fitness and gym culture. They mentioned in the article the trainers at USC had never heard of anyone testing below 7% and that world class marathon runners are around 10%. It was the first info I had ever read about body fat. There are always exceptions.

Anybody who knows bodybuilding knows that this guy definitely ISNT 1.6% bodyfat. This is literal deathbed levels of body fat. Bodybuilders in competition are usually around 4-10% BF but there is a reason why in their offseason they are more like 10-15%. This level of body fat is not sustainable for a long period of time, or isn't healthy for that matter because as mentioned test goes down, hormones are out of whack, you feel extremely fatigued, etc. With that said, it wouldn't make sense why a football player would diet down before a combine. Because dieting down to single-digit levels of body fat will decrease your performance, while in a combine the objective is to be at peak performance. Without a doubt, the guy looks very lean, but definitely not 1.6% body fat. Being 6'3, 227 lbs makes that even more suspicious. I would guess around 10-11%. People don't realize that 10-11% is VERY lean and 6'3 227 lbs at that low body fat is really quite remarkable period. It makes me think that perhaps this number was embellished or that they did this test wrong or that it isn't as accurate as people say it is. But I think whoever did the test probably messed up. pbs.twimg.com/media/D0hk5o3X4AA5wYB.jpg This is Alberto Nunez, bodybuilder around 4-6% BF. Yes everybody looks different but a person this low will see extreme vascularity, even vascularity in the abs, chest, head. I think it's pretty clear that Metcalf isn't on that level. You also have to consider visceral fat. fitoverfat.com/wp-content/uploads/alberto3.jpg

@Adrien Perez The typical "he's a (insert profession here) so he can't be wrong" defense. Can't tell you how many times I cringe when somebody says this. As if doctors are incapable of having their own biases, can never be wrong, have missed out on certain points. As if there aren't crazies in the industry from Dr.Oz who literally got called out by the senate for misleading and lying to people, Dr. Jason Fung who pretty much denies what has already been established as pretty much fact. Not implying the Dr is one of those guys in the industry, he is right about the effects of having a dangerously low body fat. However what was quoted was one SINGLE study that showed on AVERAGE it was 2% off from other methods like DEXA. This does NOT mean it couldn't be off by more than that. In fact that same study showed that the Bod Pod could be off by as much as 6%. Other studies show that hair, temperature, moisture significantly affects readings on the Bod Pod by as much as 2-3% on AVERAGE. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15059287 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11346675 The study contained in this article which compares DEXA and the Bod Pod also notes that differences were measured as high as 13% BF! Also of note is that the Bod Pod tends to be way less accurate in very lean individuals, such as DK Metcalf. examine.com/nutrition/an-accuracy-thing-measuring-body-fat-percentage/ Bod Pod is also terrible at tracking changes over time. A friend of mine did the Bod Pod 3 times in 3 months. Gained a few lbs and somehow he went from 14%, 14% to 8% BF. I did Bod Pod and DEXA and I got measured as 12% and 16% respectively (the DEXA was probably more accurate IMO). DEXA scans use a 4 compartment model as opposed to a 2 compartment model which the Bod Pod is. Well known in the nutrition/fitness industry as a top researcher in this area, this is James Krieger's conclusion of Bod Pods. He has a masters in Exercise Science and Nutrition, and coaches clients on weight loss management as well. An actual researcher rather than a general MD. weightology.net/the-pitfalls-of-body-fat-measurement-part-3-bod-pod/ If a doctor told you to jump off a cliff because it is better for your health would you do it? You're one of those guys that just blindly follows what anybody says without question because they are a so called professional and incapable of researching a topic, using logic and coming up with your own independent thoughts. Stfu if you have nothing to contribute lmao. I only speak facts here while you just troll and blindly follow whatever anybody has to say.

I don't doubt the Bod Pod. I doubt the human beings recording and reporting the data. I have a strong feeling a decimal place was missed. Just looking at his recent pics, he looks like he has 11.6% body fat. Which would be in line with what he actually looks like visually. Someone messed up when they recorded his data, and another person didn't bother to think critically and question the data. I don't even think it's actually possible to be less than 2-3% and still be alive. Correct me if I'm wrong, you need that much just to be able to make the different components of your cells. Your body's cells are partly made of lipids. At 1.6% body fat, I'm not sure your body would even be able to undergo enough cell division to completely replace it's cells, let alone create energy stores. This reeks of human error, not machine error.

So, once hit carbs were burned away, the body uses fat storage for energy. Due to Reid having very low body fat, his body was burning away his muscle as the rounds went on. His fatigue was very noticeable. If I remember correctly, he was fast tracked to a title and then retired after about 20 pro fights.

I'm not about to get in a spot where I'm calling out the NFL or the doctors monitoring things at the combine to say they are lying or have broken machines. Of course it's practically impossible to be that low and alive, but I'm not the one there running the test and checking it out so that's why the point of the video was to focus on other things. Like how the test is even done and what the dangers are of being low.
