[quote=Anonymous]Yeah, I did this when I was 39-40. I did it by accident-- my weight wasnt too low-- I was around 135 at 5'8. I felt great. My running felt great. No issues with how I felt. People made comments to me that I looked unwell and some people thought I had cancer, but I blew it off. For a health screening with a dr, I had a body composition test and I was 16.7%. The dr advised I gain a few pounds of fat. I asked why and he said that if I got sick, I would have nothing to burn through. The fat is like an insurance policy. Quite honestly, everything did feel best at that very low bodyfat point, running wise. For weight lifting, nothing changed. But, a few pounds more wasnt a big deal. I ate a bit more at dinner each night til I hit my weight goal, took about a month. [/quote]
