If you gain muscle, your body fat % will go down (since more of your body will be composed of muscle rather than fat).
How are you measuring it? And how tall are you?0 -
i got it measured in the gym before i took a break and im 5 ft 10

Almost all ways to measure body fat % are fairly inaccurate. If they used the calipers that's just a ball park figure. 4.2 and 8 are in the same ball park.0

i wouldnt be worried too much about it ghenie hit one of the nails right on the head, the other reason is b/c your still eating your metabolism is still very high so the weight loss process is still continuing.0
