I highly doubt you were at 5% body fat. Yes a picture would help

i estimate 37.2%
any other guesses?
Edit: now that you've added a pic i'd say 10-12%
i doubt you were at 5% though. not doubting you just the measuring device...

to be honest I really don't know the difference. I played alot of sports in high school but was not very nutritionally savy. so, after I gained my freshmen fifteen i came across the carb cycling diet and started to cut down. now i want to bulk up and i was curious about my bf before i started. like i said still do not know much learning as i go. thanks for the support. i can't wait until i know enough to belittle people via the internet.
