Getting below 12 percent body fat.
I have been trying to reach 10 percent body fat and it seems rediculously hard to do as of recent. I keep losing weight and at times my body fat percent has gotten to 10.6 percent but it keeps bouncing back to 12 percent. I'm using a hand held body fat calc (I use it right after I get up in the morning) but was wondering if their is any other problems. I've lost about 6-7 pounds and have flucuated between 10.5 and 11 percent but always keep bouncing back to 12 percent. I was curious why this might be. I was wondering if it could be a thyroid problem (I am not having trouble losing weight though). Or if my carb cycling adds the fat back on when I carb up twice a week. I am not having any trouble losing weight at all (atleast 1.5 lbs a week). Its just my body fat percent has seam to stay the same (12 percent) for the last 5-8 pounds I have lost. Any ideas?
