In this super transparent and honest talk Steve Hall (revive stronger) and I share our experiences about the harsh realities about getting down to very low levels of body-fat.
Personally, I have flirted with the single-digit body-fat levels before, and recently have dug into them to a generous extent. Meanwhile, Steve has took his body-fat down to ridiculously low levels for bodybuilding competitions. In either case, we both have experienced how it is like to actually fight against your own body, versus just deal with a couple of minor cravings and be tired of controlling your food intake a bit more.
We touched on many sensitive and touchy subjects, like being irritated by your loved ones, having no sex-drive, and many other things.
This can be a truly eye-opening conversation for anyone who is thinking about getting down to very low levels of body-fat.
