In the latest episode of The Supra Human Show, we pull back the curtain on extreme fat loss and ask the ultimate question: How lean is too lean?
While social media pushes the narrative that leaner is always better, the physical reality tells a very different story. Push your body fat too low, and you cross into a zone of diminishing returns where your health, performance, and mood take a massive hit.
Join us as we outline the real physiological symptoms of sub-10% body fat for men and sub-15% for women. We explore the psychological obsession with food, the hormonal shutdowns, and how to define a sustainable "sweet spot" that allows you to look great without sacrificing your quality of life.
