[rd070707]

hmmmmm 2% bodyfat is physically impossible unless you werent being literal lol.

[Jonny81191]

Bloody hell haha im only 163cm just to answer the height question lmao

YES!

I'm no longer the shortest on the forum

I'm 5'6 and just a shade under 9 stone, eat what I want and don't go to the gym.

[Matt]

2% body fat? But you look nothing like cj

[Marcus1991]

I'm 6"6 and weigh 13 stone, I wanna gain more weight but in on my feet all day so its near enough impossible!

I'm sure the guys only about 5"11 maybe 6ft and about 16stone muscle hahahah pretty sure his car tipped to one side the other night when he got out!

[Kezzer30]

No 2% was a test result we did a school in wasnt accurate tbh as a body builder has 6-7% but i had without dowt the least in the few classes that did it and yeah about 5ft 4 so about 165cm pretty much haha

[Kezzieboy]

Yeah, just the fat surrounding your organs takes you up to about 6%!

[Seb_Ryan]

I'm 6'5 - 6'6 and 14 stone and sorta athletic build lol

[Toms306]

How is 'body fat' calculated? Is that BMI or something else?

[Rich306]

I'm kinda lucky atm, i started putting weight on when i left the army last year but only got up to 10st 5ib
These days i go to the gym 3 -4 times a week and am trying to get ripped. Kinda difficult when you have a high metabolism and you also happen to enjoy high cv sports like Squash lol!!

[Tom]

Im 5'9" and 15 stone lolz :/

[MrsMidnight]

My question is...how do you guys put weight on ol.Ive been just over 7 stone for years now, no matter what I eat


...it will soon catch up though

Alcohol and millions of calories! Lol


And just to add myself, I'm 5ft 1 and 9st 9!

[Ruan]

I'm 6'6 and just over 13 stone and yeah, I'm lanky, but I'm relatively fit, I can quite happily run a few miles, but that's left over from rowing I think... I can still pull just a shade over 7m for 2k...

I'm a typical hard gainer tbf, I can eat all the "right" things as much as I like and I still just feel hungry and even though I go to the gym, I never seem to gain as much as I'd like... But oh well..

To do it accurately you have to use a DEXA scan, with a couple of x-ray machines to measure body tissue density, which I'm getting on Tuesday

It can also be done using skin-fold test, but is less accurate, and by electrical resistance through the body which is less accurate again.

Niall, how the actual f*ck do you weigh 15 stone?

I'm on 5 meals a day, I'm 6' 4" and fairly big boned, work in a manual job and I weigh 11st 8lb... Same issue as you really Ru...

[lolsteve]

Switched over to Quorn a lil while back , help cut back on the fat intake and started seeing the improvement

Thats a good weight to be even at your height, although i do believe the government guidelines (like with everything else - have a different opinion).

At the end of the day you're the one that's got to be happy with what weight you are.
There are people who do go too far though with being heavy!

[Niall]

End of the day, what difference does it make? Look at body builders. Some can be almost 20 stone and not have a ounce of fat. This is why BMI is shite. Technically, im border line fat....errr dont think so somehow!

[MrsMidnight]

Bmi charts are shocking tbh...my weight states I'm over weight for my height but bmi doesn't consider muscle or boobs lol

[Rich306]

Boooobs - Oops, Got a bit distracted there.

Exactly my point, but it becomes relevant to a degree when somebody is 'visually' overweight.
It's up to a person to get out there, be more physically active and eat reasonably well, What really takes the biscuit is when we have to start paying out of our taxes for somebody who cannot control themselves and put a huge strain on the NHS.

This. Same with smoking and drinking related illnesses. No one needs to drink so i think if you go into hospital with a issue caused by either of these, you should have to pay for your treatment. simple!

[rd070707]

If you wanna gain weight you gotta eat more, its cals in over cals out
