Get ripped?

wuichi · 04-08-2009, 02:00 AM

After speaking with two of my workout buddies, I really got confused. I spoke with MR S, he said I should maintain my weight because I'm a 6 footer and he said I would look tiny if start to diet.

While MR C said I should get ripped and show my muscles during the competition not showing my fats on stage.

So I should get ripped and impress the judges right?

get ripped man. if your competing you need to have really low body fat. u do know that right?? Weight is just a number man, ur pritty tall and 180 so i guess your an ectomorph. im a 6ft ectomorph and iv got a comp in 8 weeks. im weighing 165 justnow which is pritty light for 6ft but i a hell of a lot better than i did at 190.

There is no such thing as a bodytype that does not like best at its' greatest possible leanness on stage. Shed all the fat you can - you will look thinner, but the increased definition will mask it.
