| ANHEDONIC Uncensored  User ID: 23579473 United States10/19/2012 06:24 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am a 5 foot 11 inch tall male weighing 155 lbs. I have more muscle than not and no bones sticking out except for my ribs, which have always stuck out a bit. Am I too skinny? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24552466 The reason I ask is because in high school I used to weigh 210 lbs. Since then I started going to the gym and eventually lost the fat. I stopped going as soon as I hit 165. So, being fat for a crucial portion of my life has made me look back and wonder if I am in fact healthier. So, is 155 lbs too skinny? Just right? Should I lose more? You are whole/complete/fine just the way you are.  "Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond to it." |

If you really want to know, take your wrist, neck, chest, waist measurements. Then find a "body fat calculator" and "BMI calculator" and plug in your stats. Then look up some height-weight charts for your frame. Ideally, you'd add around 10 pounds of muscle and 10 pounds of fat; and weigh 175ish. For reference, the average UFC fighter in the 5'10"-6' range fights at 170-185. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 25573358 United States10/19/2012 06:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | skinny but not too skinny. At 5'11", 145 would be too skinny. 165 would be ideal. I'm 5'9" 162 right now and I'm working like a devil to gain muscle but it frustrates me that I can eat eat eat eat eat to 164 by bedtime and then wake up at 161. It makes no sense and the entire day is used to catch back up to 164. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 25573358 I wrestled at 165 in eighth grade... 5'8"ish, my body fat couldn't have been above 15%, I would guess less since cardio was a huge part of my workout schedule at the time, plus hockey. But I think I do have a very large frame, people never think I weigh as much as I actually do.. |
