What is with men and obsession over weight?

[thealphamaleishere]

Guys are obsessed with being overweight. It's like guys today equate having extra weight with being tuff... when it actually makes you are most likely fat.

When I tell people (they always guess heavier) that I am only 166 lbs at 5'10 they act as if I need to gain weight. Even though aesthetically I look better than them and they in fact assumed I was heavier from my build Lol...

Let's put this into perspective. Richard Sherman, a world class athlete and defensive back for the Seattle Seahawks is 6'3 and 195lbs. He would drop kick most people across the room and has a great physique.

So why is it that I at 5'10 should be in the 180s or 190s...

Has the forever bulking crowd taken over? What is with this shit? People realize it is harder to look good and be athletic than it is to eat and lift Lol?

Men care about the scale too much

Men need to be heavy

I've always heard men feel they should be heavier than what is actually most healthy and the opposite is true for women. I think its because of the idea perpetuated that men are supposed to be bigger and stronger than women. This is generally true, but can be taken to extremes. I know that at 5'7 and 135 lbs I feel like I need to be smaller. But a man of the same height and weight would likely feel they need to be bigger.

Also my ex was 6'1 and he looked his best around 180. And while it does depend on your build of course, I can't imagine someone 5'10 looking their best at that weight unless they were super jacked.

[thealphamaleishere]

If I was super jacked I would be around 175... I don't do that forever bulk look. Nothing but lean here.

I don't think they want to be overweight. Their goal is to build muscle which weighs more than fat. The more muscle they have, the better they feel. I don't think their goal is to gain fat lol

My bone structure is "broad" and Im 5'6 and 190lbs and I'm a little fat but mostly I look ridiculously "buff" even though I never really exercise I look average actually when I'm relaxed but if I stood properly my chest looks "bulky" and my back just looks wide. It is just weird genetics. I actually don't eat much and drink water or tea not soda.

Guess his non competing walking around weight fuck boi?

[Illusive_Man]

That doesn't even make sense.

[thealphamaleishere]

Yes it does dip shit. (plus you are some out of shape little punk so why I am entertaining this I don't know lol)

You know shit about how much people actually weight when they are in and out of competition. Or how much they actually weigh on stage.

Furthermore, this pick mean shit. BECAUSE none of you fucks, skinny or fat, look like this guy... No will you. So it makes no sense to post the picture. Your idea of these guys being 210 to even 220lbs is hilarious.

[Illusive_Man]

Do you even English brah?

[thealphamaleishere]

Stop trolling man. You are a couch jockey talking about nothing.

[Illusive_Man]

Hey what do I know lol
I ain't called the "alpha male".

[thealphamaleishere]

I know you either have a slight obsession with me or inferiority complex.

[NotJustAnotherGuy]

Don't worry man. This guy can't hurt you.. his picture of strong is a cornerback (lol) and he weighs the same as me at 3 inches taller and I'm betting he has a higher body fat % than I do. The Asker is weak as hell. And his first comment made no sense whatsoever, fyi.

[kheserthorpe]

Most guys imagine they are carrying around like 15 lbs of fat, and they're actually carrying around like 65+ lbs of fat.

[thealphamaleishere]

lmao sooo true

[peachblossomluck]

You sound healthy to me.
