Tom Aspinall Shares his InBody Scan Report Results

[MMAMidwit]

"Almost as"


I agree that 11% is bunk and the inbody scans are known to flub bf %, but not by some absurd amount, he's probably at around 15%

15% looks more like Mir when he got lean for Lesnar 2. Aspinall is definitely closer to 20%. His fat is pretty evenly distributed so even though he carries a lot of muscle he has zero cuts whatsoever.

 

[Ibm]

Bmi does not always equal obese. The dude is a big man. If it's distributed well no issue.

 

[Söze Aldo]

Well, we know Tom is never getting Adelaide Byrd's vote in the upcoming fight.

Moneyberg is only claiming 1% lower bodyfat than Tom, my statement was not as crazy as your response makes it out to be.

Now that might actually be close to 11%, but most likely still higher....

No no Andrew I'm not calling you crazy, just laughing at the concept of anything Moneyberg is claiming having more validity than anything else on the planet

Chain mail big papa pump was the juiciest of the NWO era imo

And he was so scary at that evolution. He was probably laughing at steroids in the milligram range, just railing GRAMS of gear, and was probably ready to go to suplex city on any random person nearby.

From what I remember what my personal trainer friend said, they are often incorrect by being 2-3 percent lower than actual bodyfat. So 11 percent could mean 13-14 (at least in the bodyscans in Australian gym)

Similar to what I heard


Whether it's 11 or 15 he's still a big boy, a naturally athletic heavyweight instead of a big fat guy.
By the way, good to see you around again, almost didn't recognize with new av!

Yeah, in way better shape than most modern HW boxers/MMA fighters. Usually fighters who are massive and at his size carry a lot of fat as well, but he is relatively lean, which is impressive as he is not even training to be a bodybuilder

 

[The XL]

Unless he's significantly leaned down, he isn't 11% body fat.

 

[spinup]

Because he's not. Those dexa scan are not super accurate at gauging bodyfat. I've never seen Tom with visible abs, he's closer to the 15% range, which is still quite good for a HW.

It's not even a dexascan that he shows, it is a glorified impedance scale which are notoriously inaccurate.

 

[MRudi]

I was analysied by the same machine(at least the same spreadsheat) and I got result of 9? when I was clearly around 20% bf.
Aspinall for HW is pretty fit, but he ain't anywhere near 11% bf%.

 

[SuperAlly]

Looks like solid data for Team Gane to analyze. Maybe take Tim into deep waters to see where his heart truly lays.

He ain't fighting Sylvia

Waiting for Andre Golota's thesis on this
View attachment 1114002

Golota only slightly unbalanced?

 

[SuperAlly]

Haven't seen him with 11% yet.
Usually he looks more around 15+%.

Lol at thinking you guess someone's body fat to that degree of accuracy just by looking at them

Also, everyone knows bioelectrical impedance isn't super accurate

So, yeh, probably not 11%

Dexa is just about the gold standard, short of chopping up a cadaver

You mean inbody and other BIA methods are not super accurate

 

[SuperAlly]

What’s the benefit of being at that low of body fat when he’s not even hitting 265lbs?

Whats the benefit 9f being a higher body fat just hit 265lbs?

Think the national level rowers I worked with could vary as much as 8-9% from inbody to DEXA, but it wasn't a round consistent number for every athlete. Some varied by a smaller degree

InBody affected significantly by hydration status because of the nature of the test. Hence why it's not a flat "DEXA is 10% more than InBody"

 

[SuperAlly]

It's probably just a measure that is automatically one of the things that is calculated, not anything they specifically selected. Obviously, it's not very relevant for athletes.

Exactly this

Those inbody reports just have it as standard
