Is a 5 foot 5 165 pound chick fat?

[Beev]

I'm 6'1 and about 160 and I think I look average.

I'm 6'1" and about 290 and I think I look totally beefcake. Small is FTL.

 

[krylon]

Dude, I'm almost 250 lbs at 6'1". I acknowledge I need to lose weight, but the only way I could lose 80 pounds would be to have absolutely no muscle on my frame. 169 at 6'1" is like hipster level skinny.

Agreed. As for me--well, if it wasn't for my fat dick, I'd be right on target for my height.

 

[RbSX]

Yes, that's a chunky bitch.

Your concept of what's 'normal' vs what isn't normal is messed up.

If you're 6'1 and 160 you're grossly underweight, your age might explain a few things though.

When I was 18-22 I was stuck at 160-165. Now I'm around 185-190 (hit a high of 210 a few months ago) and I'm 6'2.5 and that's about right.

 

[IAteYourMother]

Supa fat.

 

[AyashiKaibutsu]

I'm a guy and 5'5 130 pounds... She's a good bit overweight, but atleast she carries it well.

That could be true as well. I'm currently 25.

 

[RbSX]

That could be true as well. I'm currently 25.

You might be running a bit late then, but I would suggest eating more food.

All my weight was added mostly to my arms, neck and shoulders, I got super broad.. and some went to my stomach (can't help it, so busy with work).

 

[nick1985]

yes

 

[AyashiKaibutsu]

People massively underestimate the fat they're carrying around. I was 215 at one point and most people didn't think I was too bad. When I was 160 pounds, people swore if I lost 5 more pounds I'd only be bones. At 130, I could lose another 10 pounds or so and still be healthy. Chances are if you're saying well I weigh a bit much, but it's all muscle (or any other excuse) you're just lying to yourself.

 

[RaiderJ]

Yes

Ditto

 

[IceBergSLiM]

definitely.

I weighed 130lbs in 4th grade. I remember being ghastly skinny.

In Arnold Schwarzneggers competition days, he was 6'1" tall and weighed 240lbs during competition and 260 when not competing. If you claim you are 6 footish tall and 240lbs-250lbs and claim it to be all muscle you are lying not only to yourself but everyone else as well.

yep

bullshit, 6'1" 160lbs is a normal weight. maybe not in america. D:

i'm 6' 200lbs and i'm fucking fat.

6'1 and 160lbs is skin and bones - I'm 5'10/180lbs and I'm in shape.

I was ~125lbs in highschool. that's underweight. 160lbs is "normal"

Unless you have the muscle mass of a concentration camp victim, 160lbs is not normal.

I'm not in the USA, and 160 pounds is seeing ribs/no muscle skinny, I was there, for about 5 years, it's fucking gross. You look like a boy not a man.

You're right, 160 pounds is normal in Europe, where every man is an feminine skinny fuck that fits into slimming jeans.

 

[thraashman]

My goal is to get down from my around 250 to about 200. If I can do that without losing any muscle mass, I'll be skinny and ripped, I think maybe 190 would still look good. Below that I'd be scrawny and have to lose muscle, even at 190 I think I'd still have to lose muscle to get that low.

 

[Miramonti]

Depends how much of that weight is cash in her pockets.

 

[IceBergSLiM]

In Arnold Schwarzneggers competition days, he was 6'1" tall and weighed 240lbs during competition and 260 when not competing. If you claim you are 6 footish tall and 240lbs-250lbs and claim it to be all muscle you are lying not only to yourself but everyone else as well.

During competition he was 2-3% body fat and probably no more than 8% at 260lbs.

8% is still extremely extremely good shape. 240-250 at 12-13% may not be all muscle but I'd still consider them in shape and they would certainly appear jacked in comparison to most.

 

[DougK62]

I love how all of the fat and macho guys are saying that 6'1" and 160lbs is skin-and-bones and underweight. LOL, whatever you guys need to tell yourselves...
