Do you care about your bodyfat level if you're just lifting for health?

>>76477770 (OP)
I'm mindful of it, I'd like to get down to a lower bf % at some point, just to have more definition - but it's secondary to trying to get bigger generally.

Glory to God in the highest.

I do because of its interplay with insulin regulation and I'm bordering on diabetic. Also knee and foot issues run in my family so trying to keep the total weight down.

Jesus be like

Jesus was not a god, but he WAS jacked as fuck.

Yes, optimal body fat percentages for hormonal output is slightly above looking cut, this is like 16%bf~

>>76477770 (OP)
for health you don't need (or should) get to 8% but being below like 20% is definitely important

>>76477770 (OP)
Yes. If I’m lifting for health, why would I have other behaviours that detract from my health? Why would I make running and climbing more difficult by carrying excess fat? Why would I fuck my hormones by carrying excess fat?

>>76477770 (OP)
Yes because having an overhanging gut isn't healthy

As long as I can see my Adonis belt I know that I'm about 12%
Other than that, don't care, lean enough.

This, but lower body fat levels are also bad for hormones.
Any time I diet down to 10%, I have unpredictable morning wood, I like waking up fully erect so 12% is good for me.

Maybe if I got down to 10% at a glacial pace I would change my mind, largely agree with you

Jesus was a jewnigga thoughbeit

I'm close to hitting my goal of having abs, I was obese and made sure to lose weight very slowly while lifting so I'd get no loose skin. Once I have abs the goal will be to stay athletic. I'll eat intuitively and try to keep the abs

20% is ideal for strength and fertility.

Jesus is a scam artist

What benefit does He get? He don't even have any earth material possession in His name. Repent heathen His name will be forever remembered for eternity
