Trust me, with you height/weight, you will always pull more bitches.

It definitely does suck that we have to go further (as in use more because we need more muscle) than others to get the same kind of look.

That being said, I don't think anyone would prefer the shorter bb'er over the taller one when the amount of muscle is visually the same so comfort yourself knowing this.

The BMI chart is what most docs go by. It is brutal to bodybuilders,lol. At 6 foot I should be no more than 180 lbs. I don't think I could ever weigh that now. Maybe if I never touched a weight in my life. My father was 6 foot and about 175, never lifted heavy weights.

According to that chart you should be somewhere around 190 lbs.

Most life insurance companies will laugh us right out the door. In my case they were right though, heart attack at age 38.

I got in proper shape only once in my life. Dropped from 238 to 200. The cruel lesson for me was knowing how much muscle I thought I had but didn’t.

Btw: glad you’re still with us bro

 

[snowpatrol]

I'm a little over 6', so 220-225 on stage wasn't cutting it..."good shape/proportions, get bigger kid"

Trying my hand at classic right now (last weekend and next weekend)..max weight 220

If I go back to bodybuilding I won't step on stage until I know I'll be in the mid-230s, peeled

 

[Bser1776]

I'm a little over 6'2". I'm ugly and have no arms. Most women have better biceps for me. Around the 205lb mark most the time.

Lol I know that feel. but again when you cut and get below 6%, you’ll be so flat.. once you fill out and dry out; you’ll know exactly how much muscle you have.

6% is beast mode. I am looking for better than dad bod mode at 10%.

 

[et121176]

I'm 5'4 compete in the Heavyweight division

 

[beverast]

6'5", long extremities. I was never going to make it in any figure sport. Or any sport for that matter (I'm also lacking athletic ability).
I'll never look as good as a bulky shorter guy standing by myself. Put us next to each other, that's a whole different affair.

 

[concreter]

At 6'2" 255lbs" I still was Never Big enough for the Stage..
Always tried hitting 270 @ 6%
Gotta settle after 10 yrs of trying.
260lbs of muscle is About All that is Attainable by Anybody!
Figuring Ill be around 245 @ 5-6% as I started Aging at 51....
