Size Based on Bodyweight

I proudly nominate this as thread of the year. Very entertaining.

Please continue.

I guarentee, if I changed up my profile to say I was 6’2" and 260+, but looked the exact same, you guys would be lining up to blow me. [/quote]

Really? I think I look slightly more impressive than the picture you posted, and I have yet to receive any blowjobs from the T-Nation crowd.

Maybe if I post my pictures in a thread??? One can only hope. I DO love blowjobs.

This is T-Nation, so here is my honest summary:

I checked out his pics, and they are not impressive. You have little to no definition whatsoever. So you’re 15 inch arm is probably more like 14 when decide to lose your “bulking suit.” Using your logic, my grandmother has 22 inch arms, shall I post pics?

I dont know what is sadder: 1.) The fact that you have pics from 15 years ago on your profile. 2.) you speak of lifts you did in the “past twenty years” or 3.) in 15 plus years of lifting weights this is what you have to show. Either way, talk about being deluded and living in the past.

For someone who talks so much negative shit to people that are clearly much more advanced physiquewise and not delusionial, I was disappointed, I expected to see a much more impressive physique.

Oh, and whoever loves T-Nation say “I”. First body fat calculating shoes, now this…a great website.[/quote]

Hmmmm…we’ll have to take a vote on this one. Alan? Should we let him in? He’s a bit on the tall side. He could be one of those short guys that weighs 200lbs and makes the rest of us little guys look even smaller.

Haha, not quite…I promise to stop at 195lbs. Deal?

I’ll tell you guys what. I was thinking about this while eating my post leg workout chicken thighs earlier. I’ve always been fairly tall and thus don’t know what it would like to be short, but I really don’t think I’d care. How tall someone else is sure as hell doesn’t affect how I view them, why would I care if I was short?

I will say it might be a little weird if my wife was taller than I was.

All my girlfriends have been taller than me. It’s not an issue. :wink:

How about someone who’s 5’6.5" and 235, albeit a little chubby at the moment. My arms and calves suck, so based on those points alone I should be able to join…please.

Doesn’t bother me either. Although, it seems to bother a lot of women and men how short I am. Would I love to be taller, sure but mainly for vanity reasons. I’d actually like to have my athletic/size genetics but at 7’1" so I could make 200 million like Shaq.

I vote yes. I think the cut-off should be at least (most?) 5’8" though. Maybe 5’7".

My brother is 5’7" and he didn’t get the short jokes nearly as much as I did.

My mother is 4’10", so I can always find someone to feel tall next to. :wink:

This has been a hillarious read.

I love these height/weight threads.

I want to start a club too. Guys who are completely average- 5’9"-10", 160-180lbs. We don’t meet anywhere and don’t do anything special.

Just dress in white buttondowns, brown slacks, and rob banks every so often.

Well at least I can be the getaway driver. You DO need an Italian getaway driver you know. :wink:

Sure, but none of that silk shirt Armani stuff, O.K.?

Remember- average.

Sorry but 170 isnt alot even at 5’6", especially if you are working your wheels. I’m 5’6 170 and got gained 10 pounds in the 2 months i have been working out and i know i’m ridiculously small. Squats and milk, wait til you get to 200 pounds before thinking you are big, sorry its just the truth.

Man, that one inch must make a huge difference. If this guy was one inch taller, he’d have to gain 10lbs just to be considered big…[/quote]
Ah, Freddie Ortiz. He is a great example of a short BB’er looking great. Hell ,he would be great at any height looking like that.

Hi everybody, my name is Todd, I’m 5’6", and I’m an Aries. I like chess and blowjobs. I’d like to apply for the van driving position. I have a lot of experience driving vans. I used to own a van – Chevy G-20 – and I’ve watched a lot of A-Team.

What the hell do all you miniature people need a club for anyway?

At least you guys can fit on a friggin’ airplane seat without having to rest your cheekbones on your kneecaps…

Guess my weight

Arm to Waist Ratio = .5

Neck to Thigh ratio = .67

Height to foot length ratio = 5.75

Trying to demean me for being 5’5", and having no control over that, would be like me trying to demean you for being black. It was how we were born, we can only make the best of what we have. [/quote]

You were born 5’ 5"?

Your poor mother.

I’ll guess about a buck ninety?

(I’m lying. I checked the profile.)

I’d guess the arm to waist proportion to be @ 17/34.
