Am I too skinny for my height?

[Anonymous]

I'm 5'10 or 11 and I weigh about 130 pounds.

A little. Not dangerously skinny I don't think.
As a skinny guy myself, putting on a lot of weight is hard. In fact, I still haven't figured it out. I used up my two questions, but I'll probably ask that as a question tomorrow.
If you can, just eat a lot more than you already eat. Scientifically, that's how you gain weight. But that's easier said than done, and some people already eat a lot and are skinny.
Lift weights maybe. I don't know.

According to a BMI (Body Mass Index) Chart, at about 5'10 to 5'11, you're right between two categories: 'Healthy' and 'Underweight'. If it doesn't bother you, and if your're healthy, then I'd say it's nothing to worry too much about. If it does bother you, or if you feel like you're too skinny, try researching on how to safely gain weight or bulk-up.

Yr looking at the chart for adults. Bad idea.

For teen girls, the adult chart isn't too different, because women don't gain tons of lean mass in their late teens/twenties.
For boys it's a totally different animal, though.

OP is under 18. Most men don't totally fill out until late twenties. OP is almost certainly fine.

OP, by the way, this is the critical period of yr life during which to get some heavy weightlifting under yr belt. Between ages 16-25 is most important, and between ages 25-30 is next-most important, in terms of encouraging optimal musculoskeletal development. That's true regardless of whether you think yr "too skinny" atm.

It really depends of your body type, a pic would help*

That sounds really skinny but as long as you're healthy it shouldn't matter.

[WeComatose]

yeah dude, i was 6'2 and 160 and was considered skinny fat, and thats just like 3 inches difference, like yeah build some muscle

[jwhit]

Yeah you sound a bit underweight, but you're still growing so just eat right and stay physically active and you'll be 150+ in no time.

[takumii]

Ya boy I am same height and weigh 150, I am skinny.

[Blueeyes81]

That's pretty thin. You could probably stand to gain 20 lbs.

[justbanANNAz]

130 is very light. eat more proteins.

[Wanderingheartbeat]

Yeah you are pretty thin but that ain't a problem.

[bvvvt]

[Penwomanship]
