Height. - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

It would be interesting to see how tall everyone on here is. You can see the build of a lot of us on here from our avatars but you can never tell how tall people are from them!

I'm 5ft 9 and my training partner is 6ft 4. He reckons its easier for us smaller guys to put on muscle as we have a shorter distance to move the weight.

Thoughts?

I'm 6ft, it is easier for shorter people to get noticeable results, but I think a taller, filled out person looks better than a smaller, stockier person, even if it's a bt more work.

Your mate's wrong - smaller guys have to put on proportionally less muscle volume to look big, so they look bigger sooner...

I'm 6 ft BTW and effectively 137 kg/300 lbs.

It's a bit of a cheek to call yourself weeman. You're seriously built and average British bloke's height! You're giving me a complex!
