You don't look 235lbs, but even so that puts you at 28.5 BMI which is classed as overweight, and only just.

However, you look pretty built to me - again kind of invalidates the need for BMI which is known as a generic tool for the 'average' person to judge if they need to lose weight. Clearly you do not.

28.5 is nearer to obese (30+) than it is average (20-25)....im fairly thick set perhaps, but not massively so?

I'm still waiting on that citation, fella

Daily Regimen (7 days a week):
5am: get up and go for a 3 mile jog
6am: come back home shower and go back to bed (great workout for those huge legs of his)
10am wake up: eat oatmeal
12pm: do ring work (10 rounds of sparring) and
Slip Bag – 10min
Speed Bag – 10min
Focus Pads – 10min
Heavy Bag – 10min
2pm: have another meal (steak and pasta with fruit juice drink)
3pm: more ring work and 60 mins on the exercise bike (again working those huge legs for endurance)
5pm: 2000 sit-ups; 500-800 dips; 500 press-ups; 500 shrugs with a 30kg barbell and 10 mins of neck exercises
7pm: steak and pasta meal again with fruit juice (orange i think it was)
8pm: another 30 minutes on the exercise bike then watch TV and then go to bed.

i would say that is mainly cardio focused and mainly bodyweight exercises with 1 barbell exercise of only 30KG, 30KG shrugs is not proper bodybuilding.

what about Drogba, i doubt he has to do much weights for football.

Maybe they should modify the BMI to match real england

Below 35 - Thin
Above 35 - Get to the gym and put down the chips lol

(This comes from a guy who's BMI is 40, I have put down the chips and do go to the gym though, but you can't lose a stone in a week)

Ronnie coleman is not natty, if you think he is then....yeah.. :s

MoNkeE · 9 Feb 2012 at 16:59

Bodyweight exercises at that weight will be pretty heavy lest we forget, and still counts as weight training. How is 30kg not "proper bodybuilding"? It is suitable for his goals, consider what his goal is. What a ridiculous statement.

D'ya reckon he didn't touch any weights when he was in prison etc?

My BMI is 25.2, looks like I'm overweight

I'm around 28-29. Yay to fatties! LOL! :rolleyes:

The girl in the OP is overweight. She's not even pretty.

And LOL @ Psycho Sonny still going on about genetics > training argument. Sure genetics help, but they aren't the be all and end all. Why don't you just start getting your arse down to the gym and stop throwing a tantrum because you're not able to get into shape?

it's muscle size that is the problem not weight, my legs are genetically huge, my upper body the opposite.

i want more mass on my arms mainly, my shoulders and abs are fine.

MoNkeE · 9 Feb 2012 at 17:03

Uh-huh. Ofcourse.

Jay794 · 9 Feb 2012 at 17:05

You'd think that fat people would have massive leg muscles because we have to carry around the weight, I know it's true for some of us (like me, I actually have musclar legs)

Just want to get rid of this gut lol

no they aren't, the genetic condition that causes excessive muscle growth/high levels of muscle affects all skeletal muscle equally, you'd have a huge upper body if you where myostatin deficient/resistant not just legs.

back on topic,

you would need a crow-bar to get me off that,

i just like big girls i suppose :cool:

Hows the <30g protein diet coming along? you making awesome gains?

Jay794 · 9 Feb 2012 at 17:22

Everytime I read the word "genetics" I think of Captain America, Hulk or growing super-humans in jars lol

no they can't.

Genetics don't apply to specific groups, you can train specific groups but the genetic condition that leads to more muscle is a full body thing the protein affects all muscle equally otherwise you'd need a different version of myostatin for every single muscle group.

do you even lift?

Do you even understand genetics?

:/

Are you a chubby chaser or a feeder?

LMAO...just spat out my water

Meh shes fat simple as that and then shes not even that good looking...size 16 is fat...to me size 10-12 is about right for women even 14 isnt too bad as well but 16 and above is bordering on obesity in all honesty.

in terms of aesthetics, such as shapes and sizes, definitely. Perhaps genetics isn't the right word, or perhaps it's nothing to do with how well you build muscle overall, but in fact the muscles themselves.
