maximum weight

[romulux]

is there a weight that is too much? cause im 185. is that too much?

will i still be able to do things at this weight?
thanks in advance.

[Kimimaro]

In muscle or fat?

[anfeyd]

Shit...I weigh more than that.

I've fallen off the deep end.

Make sure you stay away from large bodies of water. At 185lbs you will sink like a stone!

Once you hit 190 you will have tremendous difficulty walking.

My friend hit 190 once; he got stuck in his computer chair eating Bugles and playing MMORPGs.

Antoine is a good example of someone at a higher weight that can trick just fine. Fattricks is probably another even though I don't know his weight. There are more.

185 is fine, 195 is fine, unless you're >5'4 that is.

You've confused your signs. I believe you mean unless you're <5'4. Wouldn't want to confuse anyone into height dieting.

[Karlnold]

I'm currently 206 and I feel as light as a feather...

What I meant was if you're smaller than 5'4 while having a weight of 185+

[PaRaSiTe_X92]

Yeah, you wanted the < sign :)

And I assume you're all talking about pounds and not kilos?

[Honken]

< Less than.
> Greater than.

[Rahf]

Right, I messed up on that one. My point was if you are 5'4 or below while weighing 185+ then it might be too much.

I stand corrected and I am ashamed.

[Karlnold]

Yeah, you wanted the < sign :)

And I assume you're all talking about pounds and not kilos?

No, I'm 206 kilos...

Ever thought about it being a fat suit?

[Kimimaro]

That IS a fat suit. lol

I can't make up my mind on this whole weight deal. I've never weighed 210lbs in pure muscle so I don't know and can't assume I do. But personally I'd prefer to be built like a gymnast.

The question is, can someone such as Antoine, at his size and weight, be as agile as someone built like James Yu or Anis Cheurfa?

Also I'd like to see a body builder switch to a straight gymnast workout regimen. Having plenty of running/sprinting, calisthenics, and tumbling for about 10 months and see what kind of transition that person's body makes.

Read all the comments on that video. Just because he is a body builder doesn't mean he has a pro body building body. If he was pro he'd be twice that size. He was actually pretty small in my opinion. I myself would say that guy had a functional physique that even I might aim for.

haha yeah i know it is, but i was just making a point that i dont think size matters at all, it may restrict you, but never say never!

yeh but i bet he weighs a lot more than the average trickster. If you look at some of ryoukos more recent videos e.g http://youtube.com/watch?v=D3CdaCMdD0g&mode=related&search=
(i know its not recent but its more recent than the bodybuilding one)
then he looks a lot bigger and hes still tricking

[Kimimaro]

Well what matters most is figuring out which physique is more functional for tricking. Hmm..actually it depends on what style of trickster you are. Personally I'd like to be swift and agile as possible for comboing and the such.

[MasterSyrup]

I weigh 156 lbs Lost 2 lbs

[romulux]

haha alright thanks guys. well, i hope most of the weight is muscle. im 5'10". you can pretty much see my top 4 abs, and im workin on the lower ones now. but i took one of those tests with the handheld thing that uses electricity through your body and it said i was like 23%, but i dont think thats right.

[Swartz]

I can't believe I was off the forum for 2-3 days just to come back and read this kind of bullshit.

[compleks]

I missed you.

[Rahf]

If you have so called "love handles" then you are +17% BF, give or take a few percent.

[romulux]

oh alright, thanks guys.

[Swartz]

Yeah go back to romulous or whatever, Romulan

[rockmonkey]

is there a weight that is too much? cause im 185. is that too much?

will i still be able to do things at this weight?
thanks in advance.

don't be too specific about you question

dont go above 186, you will find doing things physically impossible

[Steve]

I'm currently 180 because if I get up to 185 I can no longer breathe, my chest is so heavy

[Scott]

I haven't been able to walk for the past two weeks it's been awful...god I hate weighing over 185

[Steve]

If you've ever played the Elder Scrolls games then weighing over 185 is kind of like when you exceed your weight capacity, and you have to drop some stuff before moving again.

[Scott]

SHIT IM OVER MY ENCUMBERANCE LIMIT *drops Daedric Claymore*
aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh

I was playing Oblivion yesterday, hooray.

[shengoikee]

unless you cast feather

[Scott]

Or wear boots that enchanted with it!

[Lobo]

Or cheat.

[PaRaSiTe_X92]

Or fire all your arrows at anything and everything.

[Scott]

Fuck arrows, who uses arrows? It's far more manly to charge in with just an iron shortsword and no armor.

I feel so macho talking about video game glory.

[Swartz]

Yeah fuck arrows and stuff and whatnot.

[Lobo]

I find arrows satisfying.

[Scott]

I'd rather conjure up Syvoran and have him kill my enemies

[PaRaSiTe_X92]

Fuck arrows, who uses arrows? It's far more manly to charge in with just an iron shortsword and no armor.
Surely you should go true to the RPG and go iron claymore and no armour (with a "u" damnit!)?

[tricker_d]

Fuck arrows and shortswords. Chain and balls are where its at.

[PaRaSiTe_X92]

Like Spawn of Soul Caliber 2? I think anyway...

[Scott]

Fuck arrows and shortswords. Chain and balls are where its at.

Too bad they don't have those in Oblivion :dead:

[shengoikee]

oblivion is excellent haha

i was actually pretty disturbed at the corpses on the plane of oblivion. they have their peepees torn off :agony:

[Scott]

I never noticed that, next time I get sucked into that game I'll check it out.
