It's been a long time since I've been out there.
Yeah, because we got on the houseboats and we drove it to a place and we'd anchor down.
And then people start pulling up next to you and there's a lot of characters out there.
But I was like 7% and I just felt healthy.
And I think I looked the best.
4% was just, it was like okay for pictures to look dramatic.
But I don't want to look bad.
Two things I did that I noticed because these are like aesthetic things.
So you're not going to build β this is not a general β well, maybe it is for core.
So here's what I do with my core is I train them to build them.
This made a big difference.
Like to build β
My abs and obliques, not just train them, not do like a thousand reps and do a lot of twisting exercises and just to like, I'm like, I'm, I'm actively going to try to make my abs bigger because I know when they're bigger, you're going to see them at higher body fat percentages, huge difference in the way they look.
So I used to, before this, before I figured that out, I would have to get down, I would get down like 9%, 10%, which is, that's like what they would call six-pack territory, right?
Yeah.
But if I wasn't flexing, you could tell I was lean, but you couldn't really see my abs.
And I would see sometimes guys at the beach flexing.
Or, you know, even at the gym that really built, like, I remember one time I seen this dude who had, he had like a tight, it was kind of like a spandex like vest on and his abs were sticking out of his shirt.
I was like, damn, you can see his, he's not even flexing.
Like you can see his abs.
