6 feet 2 inches. My weight is normal for my height and age. I eat a lot of carbs , love that Italian and Chineese food, you know we got the best kind in N.Y. My pops is almost 270 and we're the same height, he's a beer belly though, I'm trying not to end up sloppy like him. If I could cut down on my body fat and I'm working on getting more ripped and my goal is around the lower 220 pound mark. It's just hard for me because I gain weight fast and I can't go a day without Italian or Chinese food.

It's ok we have the weight thread for that now. I'm still going with superfat.

Crossfit is pretty crazy.

agreed we have fantastic food in the city but i don't eat it often because i find it hard to eat healthy when i'm not preparing my food. anyhow, that weight is normal for your height but still on the heavy end of the spectrum. you don't sound fat or anything but you could probably be 200 and be normal too is my guess.

And then he threw the bills right in Trump's face/hair! Then Swamper and his entourage of 30, who were all wearing TA monogramed Rolexes, left the room and flew to Hawaii for a few hours because Del wanted fresh coconut. To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

wow 100 is tough to beat

im pretty sure i can condition myself to do 40 wide grip consecutive.

at my peak shape i could do around 30 something. I used to do them with 90 lbs strapped on (but i would only pull off 6 to 8 at that weight.

keep in mind also i weigh like nothing so not much of a feat.

and dieting was a major fail.

couldn't sustain training 2-3 times a day on a low carb diet. cardio and strength were zapped. gonna try an aminoacid supplement, plus a protein powder and some vitamins, but at this point, it's pretty much sealed i have to fight in the heavyweight class.

there's chance there'll be a 170-200 weightclass, in which case, i am golden.

On low carb diets there's a period of a week or two where you'll feel less energetic until your body adjusts to the new diet. That's what I've heard, anyway.

Not even. 3-4 days.

this i know. however, i'm doing it to fight at a lower weightclass at a jujitsu tournament, but... my cardio went to SHIT. i got dizzy. as in, i can't walk straight dizzy at one point. i was about as strong, for a one-shot. but i couldn't go full power for too long before gassing hard. i've done the diet before, but my training was way less intense than it is now.

i can def do the diet, and lose the weight, but i have to be JUST AS strong, fast, and explosive while doing it, else i'm not going to be able to train at the level necessary to ensure competence at the tournament. i only knew about the tournament 1 month in advance, next time i would need to be nearer my target weight, come tournament preparation time.
