Official WF Health/Workout Thread 2.0

Christmas Day weight 197.8lbs. I honestly get mad every time I weigh under 200.

To get under 200? That's a great goal for anyone but I wanna be a wrestler and I wanna be a more traditional big dude lmao.

My bodies been weird with bloating; and stress. SO I don't if it's time to start a big shred cyle.

I was 203 a few days ago. If I don't eat 5 times in a day I lose 5-7 pounds. Having a fast metabolism just means you have to eat until your jaw hurts to maintain or gain weight. 

nothing wrong with being proud of what you got as long as it doesn't go totally to your head.

luckily my gym has dodged this lockdown so I'll be staying busy over this winter.

How tall are you?

Haha cool, 200lbs is a lot more reasonable expectation then. 200lb @ 6'1 =/= 200lb at 5'9 lol. That said I'm not a huge huge fan of specific bodyweight targets. I'm 5'8 so the actual #'s here are going to be veeeeeery different than they would be for you, but outside of weight class based sports the #'s themselves can always be super misleading/pointless. I got up to 200 at one point, but did it too fast and there was too much bodyfat. Looked much better @ 180ish and measured bigger too. Only so fast your body can pack on muscle without enhancement, and I definitely tried to put it on too fast for that. 

You'll get there; you're doing good at 16. 

I was 168 Lbs when I shredded all my fat at 16 going into 17. I didn't start bulking up until the spring of 2018; then I met my girlfriend and I got pretty fat by spring of 2019. But I drastically jumped from 180 at the start of the summer to 200 by the time  I put my cap and gown.  I was 207; and started very big shred at the Late of 2019. And I only actually lost 7 lbs. Even though I was pretty damn narrow. I started to lift heavier; and then I started bulking this Summer and got up to around 214. I tried training heavier being that I worked at a county jail as a officer. I  started to shred; but something just suddenly happened where I shot up to 227 with more Muscle and just size by my 20th birthday. 227 at 6ft. I am tall for being Italian; lmao. I never; cared for abs. I's have to get to 190; for Abs. I just want my stomach to taper; big arms; wide frame. Just big fit dude you don't want to f*** with. And I don't care for all the hard work of balancing macros; and scheduled meals. I hated it; especially working at a Jail it was so damn hard to eat on a special routine. 

The only thing i'll tell you at some point your metabolisim may slow down and you may get a bit chubby at some point. And I will say; get in some cardio if you don't already. I usually run 1.5 miles then break into on and off running and walking than a Spring; but I only do so much because I have a naturally fat body and I have to be able to run to codes without feeling total death lol.

Just some high stress intense fat burning calorie session would help; like crossfit. I hate cross fit; though. 

So your body is going to give you lots of free gains as you age. At 16 is only the start of them; I think I am done. But; I'd love one more by 21. Since some of us can keep growing till 21; I wish I could by like 6 ft 3. That would be my perfect medium; and about 240-250.  

But I'd say expect a good won some point before your 18; and few good ones after 18. You're most likely going to be total animal once you hit 20. You already sound like a animal for 16; lmao. 

17" arms at 16 is pretty damn good bro. lol. my arms are that and I'm twice your age.
