Dieting or no dieting. No natural has gained that. [/quote]
??/ Wait a second, how is this even allowed to be written without being laughed at?
No natural person on planet Earth has ever gained 80lbs of muscle?
Are you serious?[/quote]
79 is the highest, once u hit 79 ur body stops building muscle and builds only fat
it’s like a glitch in the matrix
unless u use steroids, then it increases to 37PIGolden Ratio
how people got above the magical 50 lb limit no one knows… i’m just surprised the four horsemen didn’t show up once people starting exceeding this number
And remember we are talking about “Normal Weight” which means 170-180 lbs lean(because 170 + 80 = 250-260 lb Dorian Yates). It’s not like 130-170 are “Normal Weights” for someone who is 5’10 or anything like that
but yeah lets keep bringing up these limits without the preconditions “X height, Y Bodyfat%, Z weight”… it’s really useful to know these limits that can’t be used or applied by anyone because they are so vague

130 pounds for a 5’10" man would indicate a BMI of 19, which indicates underweight (<20). 170 IS normal for 5’10" considering the normal bodyweight for an untrained man is 149 to 183. No, these standards ARE NOT the be-all-end-all or set in stone, but they serve as gauges to things we’ve seen over and over again!
Keep babbling. I’m going to a natural pro qualifier this summer. I’m sure I’ll see some heavyweights with 60 or more pounds of LBM.
Care to talk in a coherent fashion when speaking with me? Perhaps then I’ll know what you’re getting at and be able to go back and forth a bit with you.
Actually, take the “I don’t mean to be a dick here” statement above. It’s clear you’re being dismissive and rude in your posts. Perhaps if you care to engage in a intellectual conversation and not dismiss me as some ignorant and uneducated simpleton I’ll do likewise. By the way, I REALLY, REALLY dislike bringing up academic and professional accolades, nor do I wish to be genuflected to because of them, but you’re talking to someone who’s exercised in some form or another since 12 years old, has a master’s in nutrition and exercise physiology, undergrad in nutrition, and dietetic internship, and electives in kinesiology and biomechanics. My thesis professor used to write for THIS site and is the cofounder of the largest sports nutrition organization the world.
I don’t say this to be hostile or arrogant, but I take it you speak to me as if I’m an imbecile. Look at the fashion in which you speak to me.
