Originally posted by Racer X 69 I'm at 188 today.
I stopped growing at 6', but as I have aged the soft tissue in my spine has compressed. I have lost nearly 2" of height, and now stand at just over 5'10".
But my doctor says I need to be closer to 160.
I'll see how I look and feel at 175, eh?
13lbs to go.
Well when i was in my best shape of my life (skiing for a living at 19-20) i was 165 and virtually no body fat, not much chance 37 years later to ever be ale to say virtually no body fat lol i'll settle for a lot less of it
the charts say 132 to 173 lbs. for our height so maybe i need to shoot for 165 again
tbh at 57 if i get to 170-175 i'll likely fall in the top 10 percent for my age
