Hello,
I'm looking to do the Cutler Classic in Boston in the Spring. This will be my first time at Bat in the NPC and I will likely compete novice. How common is it to have guys in the middle weight class who are my hight - 5'11''? Although bodybuilding is more my hobby and not a career, I still want to do the best I can. From what I'm observing, it seems like a middle weight that is 5'8" is a tower! Seems many are much shorter in that weight class.
Last time out was 2 years ago and I was 175# (avi pic). 3 months ago, I was 215# and measured a hair under 15% BF. I've made some great progress. My best guess, which is about all I can do right now, is coming in between about 175-185 somewhere. Clearly I'll have to be leaner than in my avi so maybe I could hit the top of the middles. I'm just wondering how much of a detriment my height will be.
