Title: Body mass index.
Post by: The Sheriff on 11 November 2014, 19:43:40

Just had a look at a bmi chart. You are smack bang in the 'healthy' bit, as am I. But, apparently, your waist measurement also comes into it now.
I suppose a man the shape of a tennis ball could fall into the healthy bit with just height and weight.......... ;D

They always feel that they need to say something, so too fat, too thin, too whatever, and half a chance and they stick you on statins for life.

I'm off to find one of these . . . . . . . .  :D

Those statistics only make you  an apprentice fat bastard, Mr Gonads. ;D ;D ;D

You need to weigh in excess of 25 stone to be considered a 'proper fat bastard' ;)...........and in the good old US of A where they know a thing or two about fat people, 25 stone counts as undernourished. :y

Judging by all these posts I must be a freak of nature as I am 6 feet tall and weigh 8.5 stone (not changed since I was 14 which is now 50 years ago).  I eat all the wrong things such as a whole ginger cake in about six large bites and plenty of chocolate etc.  Needless to say it drives my wife mad as she only has to look at at a cake to put on weight.  Must be high metabolic rate or good genes as my grandad was just the same.

Unfortunately STEMO it is true, ginger cake is one of my many weaknesses and I just wolf it down, my wife hates it and will leave the room when I start on one.  In fact she reckons that I must have a monster tape worm in my gut as nothing canl make me put on weight.  When I was young my parents even tried something called Complan as I was so underweight but it was a waste of time.  It's a bit of a sod getting sand kicked in my face but I am used to it now.

The only way to measure correctly is to use body fat calipers.
I,ve been working out for years and know exactly how to drop weight without losing muscle.
Its not easy and take's a lot of will power.....
I,m 6' 1" and started my 12 week cut about 4 weeks ago now.
Started at 16 stone 4lbs with 28% body fat (the beers and crap food had taken its tole over the last year)
working out 6 times a week (got my own gym in my workshop at the bottom of the garden) and eating 6 small meals a day 40% protein 40% carbs 20% fats.
I,m now at 15 stone 5 lbs and 13.63% body fat.
Abs come in at around 10%.
I,ve been down to 5.8% before.
The workouts are killers as every 2 weeks I drop 150 calories and up the cardio by 10 minutes.
Worth all the effort though as you feel amazing with mega high energy levels.
about 9 weeks in I start to add the calories back in.
Give it ago anyone can do it if your strong willed.

I went to the gym 3 days a week for 2 hrs each time years ago for a year , lost a stone then put it all back on  in muscle  :( Its hard work keeping fit and in my case did me more harm than good .. Once you build muscle you have to work harder to keep it , then if you drop the routine everything turns to fat very quickly  :(

5'11" - 12st 6lb.

Reasonably physical job, lots of heavy lifting, but also lots of driving which also means lots of Breakfast Rolls and Burgers.

Physically, I look reasonably fit - I bet my Cholesterol level is massive.  Add to that I drink 4-5 pints a night, and on a weekend that is more like 8 or 9 pints.

I'm 32 years old.

I can't believe 90% of this forum is over 6' tall..... and the vast majority are fat bastards too!  ;D

Look at how bored the average OAP is - they'll go on bus trips to different ASDAs for a fun day out, and discuss their clothes washing routine in minute detail (interspersed with fond reminiscing of how much better washing powder was in 1955)... Drunk and young sounds much more appealing ;)

I don't drive a Mig anymore because I got bored... I've had 4.

I popped over to see my little brother (he is 31) to show the new ScAAB.  His wife said quite brashly, "You are such an old man Ross".

I just like lardy 4 door barges.  She would have wet her knickers if she opted to pop out for a spirited drive in it.


As for the Cholesterol - I keep myself fit 'enough'.  I like a beer or two.  Meh.  You only live once.  Life is too short.  [add a million and 1 additional sayings here]
