I cannot believe she tried to claim she was only 24% bodyfat at her highest in that video today. It just goes to show how defensive she is. She says it wouldn't matter if she had reached that obese category, but she likes to let us know she definitely didn't (even though go look for someone who got a DEXA at 25% and they look far different and far leaner- it's fine she was higher, just don't lie ffs). Lol I know how she arrived at those numbers. She uses the "athlete" setting on her #sponsored scale (she no longer flaunts/advertises because it no longer reads out super low numbers with crazy low bf%). I have one like that and right now and if I use the athlete version it tells me I'm at like 13-14% bf which is ridiculous and clearly untrue. On a related note, I'm tired of all these instagram lifters who have almost zero strength/performance goals calling themselves athletes. I guess Stephanie doesn't that much (if at all), but she released a program for "advanced" lifters, all while only being able to demo the upper body stuff with like 5-10lbs. And don't get me started on her joke of a home program. She was telling people to use RPE 8 on everything in the 8-12 rep range even though she said it was with home equipment and advised light dumbbells (water jugs as a substitute) and band type equipment. On moves like deadlifts where a lot of people who have been in the gym for not that long would easily need well over 100 lbs of resistance to get that RPE in that rep scheme.
Ugh, I honestly think she does look healthier, but this all in thing has been surrounded by lies and covering up some serious past issues she put out for the whole world to watch (and try along with her). If she'd just admit she was HAES now and point to some corresponding literature maybe I'd respect her more. Instead she acts as though it's true science with her experiment of n=1.
