The man was pure muscle. Hardly an ounce of fat on his body.<BR/><BR/>They had to run a battery of tests to prove that his weight was okay, like looking at the guy, who could have a collision with a truck and look the fresher of the pair, wasn't enough.<BR/><BR/>There is no universal weight for a height.

HA!<BR/><BR/>Congrats on the orientation toward health and fitness, Janine. How do you feel? That, it seems to me, is as least as important a measurement of such things as the numerous external factors that are purported to be.Emeraldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00819037087504004841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281925592595958318.post-39458897191373358122009-03-27T20:10:00.000+00:002009-03-27T20:10:00.000+00:00yeah, methinks the Wii folks are missing the boat ...yeah, methinks the Wii folks are missing the boat - just think of the possibilities...Erobinticahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03367086200542648795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281925592595958318.post-79507359802542897362009-03-27T13:17:00.000+00:002009-03-27T13:17:00.000+00:00Lol!Ah, you're so cool guys.

How can there be a unique "ideal weight" for all the different people who happen to be the same height? There are so many other variables, right? My non-medical diagnosis is that that's pernicious bullshit.<BR/><BR/>I would suggest scrolling through the Wii menus until you find the GO FUCK YOURSELF, WII item. (It's got to be in there somewhere.)<BR/><BR/>Anyway, big kudos to you for doing the fitness thing!Jeremy Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01980177431018869829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281925592595958318.post-6808025808475708692009-03-27T10:20:00.000+00:002009-03-27T10:20:00.000+00:00Ah, you must be the same height as me, Janine.Now ...Ah, you must be the same height as me, Janine.<BR/><BR/>Now I can save my money and buy your next fifty books instead of a Wii Fit (which I was considering).

Muscle's heavier than fat, so you *should* put on a bit of weight as you get fitter. <BR/><BR/>As for women's mags, I'd prefer Playboy (if it didn't have so many weirdly hairless women in it).Nikki Magennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07085757122187578766noreply@blogger.com
