Today in my step aerobics class at college, we had to take a waist and hip measurement. I don’t think the little gal that was measuring me probably did things quite right, but my hips are 37 inches, and my waist is 36 inches.
I am 5’10 and 195. We are supposebly going to take a body fat percentage measurement, but is it bad that my waist and hips are that big?
Well, why are you in a step aerobics class in the first place? Answer that and I think you’ll unlock the answer to the question you posted.
Maybe he’s in Step aerobics cause he’s a fatty fat fat. Huh, Fatty? You like aerobics, don’t ya fatty. Ya fat fatty.
But seriously, if it ain’t muscle, must be fat. I’m 5’10, 225lbs and got measurements 2 inches off I believes. But again, i’m a fatty fat fat like you
I am in a step aerobics class because
A. it is full of very attractive women
B. My shithole university seems to think that I need to take a phys ed class, even though I had to have a phys ed class at my community college.
My choices were weightlifting, swimming, cardio and aerobics. If I took a weightlifting class, then I would be following a mass produced program that probably doesn’t include things like deadlift, chin up and squats, and probably thinks the smith machine is a gift from God.
I dont like swimming, and jogging is non conductive to gaining mass. I could wait another semester to see if anything comes up, but I am trying to get my bachelors when I am 20 1/2 , and I can not take anymore hours next semester.
This is about a six month old picture of me. I haven’t changed much.
Bullshit, real man would have taken weightlifting and showed those weakling ups
You’re not the fatty fat fat I thought. You’re in a decent/good shape.
The hell is with the mustache. Look like a ex-porno star trying to get out of the XXX business. But at the same time, the mustache makes you who you are.

Your waste looks like it’s around 30"-32" in that picture.
Was this just another opportunity to show off the hair on your upper lip? Everyone isn’t going to have a 32" waist or smaller. Even at lower body fat percentages, my waist measures about what your’s does.
There is no way you should be going off of the measurement alone. Guys with smaller bone structures will obviously have lower measurements. You aren’t fat. Perhaps the Abercrombie Fitness boys on this site have given you a complex?
I’m digging the stache…keep it up man.
As for whoever said you looked like an x-porno star, my response would be “What’s wrong with that”

It depends on his bone structure. 34" on some people is very lean. Everyone isn’t built the same. Some taller guys especially would have a larger waist than 32" in some cases and still be lean.
Yea, seriously man. Haha. I’d be worried if you honestly think you’re fat.
Did the dumb ho forget to put her hands on the outside of the tape when she was measuring?

He has thick obliques. I’m assuming you dead and squat frequently right?

I deadlift very frequently, and heavy.
Squats are thrown in some, but not a big focus.
I think the girl probably measured me wrong.
I wear 33x32 pant size.
The mustache is gone, unfortunately. I got a state job that requires I be clean shaven.
while you might wear 33x32 pants keep in mind you wear your pants lower than your waist (your waist is up near your navel). Also, while pants might be labeled 33 inches, the actual circumfrence varies depending on the cut (traditional, relaxed, etc.)
That being said, you aren’t even close to fat. Waist size doesn’t really mean all that much except that people who go by waist measurements are too lazy to track bf.

That would make sense. Many guys who lift weights might be lean but could never fit in a 32" pair of jeans. One of my legs nearly measures that much.

Dang, X!
You really ARE my hero!
You should have looked into their weightlifting class. Might have been what you’ve been doing. Now you are possibly waisting 50 mins or whatever the class is of working out time. Now you are doing the a-robics class and that’s going to be counterproductive to your weightlifting as well.

It won’t be a waste if he scores the softball chick.
hey barney how does your training routine look like?
My routine is as follows-
Monday, wednesday and friday-
Barbell bench
behind the neck press
leg press (I would squat instead, but all that the gym has is a fucking smith machine, and cleaning the weight up isn’t really gonna make my quads grow. They have a hack squat machine, I though about using it instead of leg press)
Incline bench
Tricep Press downs
(The only thing I enjoy about MWF is the tricep pressdowns, and maybe the benching. passed that, I just don’t feel motivated to do anything on this day)
Tuesday, thursday Saturday- (I get everything done that I listed down there in the space of an hour and a half. I just can not seem to pull myself away fromt he gym on this day, I absolutely love training my back and my arms.)
Pull-ups
Overhand Cable rows
Chinups
Hammer grip cable rows
Posterior delt flys- on a peck deck type machine.
Lat pull down
Preacher Curls
sitting alternating curls
Laying prone on an incline bench curls (it was an excercise from one of those weekly testosterone updates)
Machine curls
Hamstring curls
On sundays I deadlift
My rountine used to be different, but I just moved two weeks ago to go to Washburn University, and I am using machines and stuff now. Before I didn’t have access to machines, so I deadlifted three times a week and did bent over rows.
Any ideas, I am open to suggestion.
