sure its healthy. its a bit on the low end but if you drop below 5 percent then its unhealthy. once you get to 6 percent it pretty easy to maintain. as long as you don't go on a eating craze. i maintain my bodyfat at 5.7-6 percent for about 2-3 weeks already. i do very little cardio only like 2 days a week. i do a jump rope pyramid for my cardio and rarly run a few miles. i do how ever strength train in no particular order and do not have a any spacific routine. some day i do 100 pull ups a day and a quick abs in the morning and everning. other days i do barbell pyramid and forearms. somedays puchup, hanging knee and leg raises and i don't go to the gym eaither. its a waste of time and time is precious and should be used for other good deeds.
