David Getz, in his fifties, has less than 10% body fat. Although it might seem like that he does not eat much to maintain that figure, it is wrong.  He announced that staying lean is not about sacrificing food; instead, it is about discipline.

The fitness enthusiast who does not compromise with the food he loves takes people through his daily diet routine, and it is certainly not what you might expect. However, Getz also gets much disregard from the fitness community, as no one believes he can be natty with that physique and diet at his age.

In his latest Instagram post, Getz shared what he eats throughout the day. He begins his breakfast at 7:30 in the morning, where he eats an egg white omelet and oats with Greek yogurt. Then, almost an hour and a half later, he treats himself to a snack: a skinny salted dark chocolate latte. He finishes his lunch by 1 p.m., where he has a cajun prawn wrap and an apple with zero-calorie syrup and cinnamon.

Getz follows this with another Skinny Latte as his snack, and then for dinner at 6 PM, he eats a Mexican Taco Bowl. He also gets himself another snack two hours later: Boom Chika Pop popcorn with dill. He finishes his day with protein ice cream at 9 p.m. The bodybuilder wrote in his caption, “Staying lean year-round doesn’t mean sacrificing all the food you love.⁣ You can maintain your physique year-round with a little discipline and planning.”

Looking at his eating habits and pondering over the fact that his age and body fat level do not seem very natural, many fans started showing their doubts.

One of the fans argued, “u forgot the 100mgs of anavar/winstrol. u dont get better w age this is gear and a lot of it.”

Another fan talked about how his face looks rather old while he maintains his physique, “Yeah, he’s super lean, but look at his face toodrawn out and gaunt.”

Someone else commented, “What about your T cycle?”

While another asked him to confess, “Be brave for few seconds and tell them what u inject.”

Yet one other fan also wrote in the positive lights, “Gotta love the need to believe this isn’t possible without injections… get outside your bubbles bitter ones. There are parts of the world where men live in agrarian cultures still who have never seen the inside of a gym and look like this. I should know some of them are elders in my own family.”
