Height or weight is wrong


I was looking at the cover of his Muscle & Fitness photo and it said shredded 148. I look for height here and see 6' 5" and know it isn't even remotely possible so tell me I misunderstood something.

LMAO, the cover says p148. You know, like turn to page 148.
Understandable mistake considering the "p" is pretty small on the cover image on imdb:

My guess is the guy as at least 100kgs, don't know what that converts into pounds..maybe 220?

But yea, an honest misunderstanding.

Im surprised he only weighs 220. Looks more than that.

As for his height hes at least close to 6'5.

reply

I saw him at Comic-Con and he is atleast 6'5 maybe 6'6 and 230lbs

I'm been lifting for 27 years and I'm 6'0" 234.

That's because lifting naturally caused muscle density from the repeated trauma to the muscles, and so you will get quite heavy as you grow over a long period of time.

However, if you're on steroids the drugs cause your muscles to retain fluid and "boing" out, making you look like you've been working out for decades, and making all muscles stand out. So, you will have giant size but not the weight to go along with what appears to be muscle. Actually, it's a kind of swelling.

When the steroids are stopped then all the size is lost because it isn't actually muscle.

Refrain from worshiping these people.

Yeah but the height has a lot to do with it too because my grandfather was 6'7 and looked like a pole and weighted 225.And the dr said it was because of his height

And the muscle that they are showing on the cover of that mag looks a little fake because in person he looks smaller than that.I think that they made him looked bigger than what he really is

Right, a 6'7" guy with normal muscle should weigh about 225, but if he had bodybuilder muscles from years of lifting he'd be around 300 or over.

If the guy's body is just a trick them the steroid argument is out, but so many actors are on them and inflate and deflate rapidly I wouldn't be surprised.
