Footballers without abs

This doesn't make any sense at all. Fat and running (stamina) isn't really a problem. Being sharp and sprints suffer due to weight and fat. That said the difference in him and Ronnie has a lot to do with Ronaldo being top conditioned all the time and never carrying any xtra weight through out his career Rooney has had weight issues most of his..

Ahh, the time he was sent to fat football camp.​

First time, it was indeed one of those fancy machines. I did not know that those were wildly inaccurate, as I said I've never actually cared about looking cut, so finding out which method of measuring body fat is the most accurate isn't something I've bothered with (besides, don't they measure the composition of planets using microwaves? shooting electricity through your foot seems plausible enough). Second time they did a multi-point pinch, but the internet leads me to believe that those can also be wildly inaccurate.

Would have thought they'd have mentioned that when I specifically asked them about it. More importantly: Does this mean I'm secretly a fatty?

Calipers are ok but how accurate they are depends on the person using them. The most accurate is a DEXA scan but that's beyond most people's needs.

Examples of bodyfat percentages:
