Body Building and Height

[jm425]

5'7, 230, 14% bf. Need to def cut during the summer. Also, while short guys have the advantage of looking bigger, I believe the taller guys have the advantage of obtaining larger muscles overall. For example, ronnie being 5'10 has 23 inch arms at contest weight while a lot of pros who are in shorter (5'4-5'8) tend to have smaller arms (22 inches). That's just my opinion on this.

 

[MightyJohn]

5'9"

5'6 but wish I was 6'0 If a person can fill out a 6'0 plus frame in my opinion it looks much better and plus girls generally are not huge fans of guys that look all bunched up.

I like being tall, BUT

at a little over 6' and long ass arms, it seems all I'm ever doing is trying to get my pressing movement to catch up with my pulling movements! Its taken me 20 years to reach 224 at 12%...dammit!!

when you look up bodybuilding on a budget in the dictionary there is a picture of me so no im doing everythin on my own from here on out, in the future IF i work with anyone it will be phil hernon!

hahaha! Bodybuilding on a budget, I like that. Some friends of mine and Phil you know Andre have some shirts they made that say: BLUE COLLER BODYBUILDER...

Oh yeah I am 6ft and no change. And a Blue collar bodybuilder myself..........

im about 6'4 and i think i will grow more cuz i im only 17 y/o.Thats sad. Its really hard to gain something, i wish i was a little shorter. My goal is to look something similar to lou fergino one day

 

[buselmo]

5'7...

6'2", about 290, pretty lean. Most of the builders I know are short and suffer from the LMS too.

Which Ive always felt was an interesting point. To me, Little man syndrome IS roid rage. Basically, a small fellow with a bit of tude', puts on 50-100 lbs of muscle, still has the tude'.... perhaps?

6'-2"

I'm right at 6'2 now or a llittle under. Used to be a little over. My feet are growing and I'm getting shorter. I think I'm "smushing" into the ground. LOL

I also have relatively long arms, good for dunking, shedding blockers, not so good for "peaks".

Most of the guys who have the "look" I would want are well under my height.
