I’m about 2 years in.
don’t know my exact body fat at this time but I do know its high. I’ve put on considerable muscle mass throughout the last 2 years. I also obviously know that getting the BF down is the primary concern.
I only recently took a little concern to the sleep apnea thing as I heard it mentioned briefly whilst listening to a podcast.
I understand what you guys are saying, that it’s not worth worrying about.
Just to help me get an idea of when one would have to worry though it helps for me to form a picture hence the example I brought up. I want a good figure like everyone else on here, and for me that means considerable mass and reasonably shredded. I don’t mean professional body builder mr Olympia size, I’m talking more (I know it’s cliche) like some ripped guy on the cover of men’s health or some thing lol. Chris hemmsworth or Hugh Hackman for their movie roles were the first to come to mind. Would an individual with that figure need to worry is my question. (Wish I could post a pic but I’m sure you guys get the idea)
Thanks guys!
You mentioned in the above post that you have a high body-fat percentage now.
That was what I meant in my post about if you your goal is to build muscle and lose fat, then if you have a high body-fat percentage now, in terms of total body-weight then you have a lot of weight that you can lose in terms of offsetting the total body-weight with muscle weight.
I hope that makes sense.
In general, the average weight training male that is not using AAS would likely never build enough muscle even with many years of consistent training to have to worry about sleep apnea.
Btw.... I'm not knocking you for having high body-fat, I'm in the same spot right now. My total body-weight is much higher than I would like for it to be because I've gained a lot of muscle back in the last couple months. I'm at least 20+ lbs. heavier than I want to be, but I'm not long term worried about it because my plan is from between now and February to lose 30 to 40 lbs. of fat, so my total body-weight will level out.
