Tall guys (6'2 and over) and bodybuilding.

Posted many pics many times. Ill use daddywaddy as an example

im talking in general. it is not harder to add mass.

If you are bigger more muscle more fibres can add muscle just as easily.

[Triple-H_2005]

I can't speak for anyone else, but it's always been a bit of a challenge.  Not necessarily the adding of muscle, but the rate at which a taller BB looks filled out.

I am 6'2", and I've been as high as 280 (but that was sloppy as hell!).  I last competed @ 227, but every year I'm a bit heavier and improve my condition.

If 2 BBers both add 10 lbs, of course the 5'8" guy is gonna look more improved than the taller guy.  That's simple math.

Let's see any kind of evidence of this theory of yours.

I wouldn't want to be a short guy for anything, but they fill out much quicker.

On the other hand, if a tall guy does fill out, a shorty can never compete.

Look at Arnold, he just blew Franco off the stage.

Good, because I'd enjoy fuccking your mother and grandmother in front of you, your father and your grandfather. All while she hangs from a tight noose with purple tinged lips.

MELTDOWN ... hahahha


too easy, get a grip hahahahaha

240 at 6'3"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my Lord allmighty someone widen the doorways and reinforce the floors for this behemoth!!!!!!!!!!!

My thoughts exactly. An average male at 6'3" tall is 225lbs on average. So 240lb is nothing special at all. When you hit the 260-290lb range at that height then you're talking.

The tall bodybuilders need to be realistic about that it will take much longer for them to fill out.

Toney Freeman is a great example, he's closing in on 40, and is just starting to be where he should be.

Had he rushed things, he could've very well ended up looking like Greg Kovacs.

oh really. guess guys like gunther and Freeman is the only impressive guys in your eyes then... dumb fuck..

[SteelePegasus]

I really feel bad for the tall guys 
please, in general woman prefer taller guys to shorter ones..

short guys are built for pushing and pulling..but in general it is better to be taller

[Andre Nickatina]

I'm 6'2 adding clean mass is a bitch. 205 really doesn't look like much. I've got really wide shoulders though.

But being taller looks better.

[Master Blaster]

WOULD YOU LIKE THE CEMETARY LOCATION?

I'll fuck their dead flesh.

[NarcissisticDeity]

6'8" 288 pounds , among the best very tall bodybuilders ever , but look how lean he looks at this weight .

[dantelis]

still lean enough to fucck your mom and sister for hours an end...

Squadfather:  ...if they are willing to be on top and if I can find the spare time away from posting on Getbig and if I was straight...   

[hipolito mejia]

It is not harder to fill out if you are taller. Stop yapping about it.

PLus when you do you look much better than a 5'5 shapeless blob

Not, If you wanna take bb seriously the best height would be around 5'9" to 5'10".

[The Squadfather]

i love sucking dick, it's the best thing in the world.

hahahhaha, oh brother.

You are obviously not very tall, or bright.

[Ursus]

i am both

Armon Shulz (spelling?) was doing legs with us today. He is about my height (6'3"). And a complete monster.

But he is definitely the exception.

All the other pros have been under 5'10".

Goudy, you are smoking weed if you do not think it is harder to fill out a larger frame. It is simple logic, physics, economics and aesthetics. For example, how much does it cost to feed and supplement a guy who weights 265lbs versus a guy who weights 195lbs (it is more expensive)? Or, if a 5'3" guy has a squat range of motion of 4" and a 6'3" guy has a range of 16", who has a harder time performing the squat (it is more strenuous)? Or, if a 5'3" guy has a .25" gap between his bicep and forearm and the 6'3" guy has a proportionate gap of 1.25", whose arms looks bigger (it is less aesthetic)?

However, I will say that once the taller guy does fill out proportionately, he will blow away nearly any shorter guy.

you could argue that but then you could also argue that the taller person is generating more force and velocity by moving the weight over a greater distance therefore getting better results, couldn't you?

it is alot harder.  Look at a 6'3 guy with 18 inch arms, then a 5'8 guy with 18s.  The 5'8 guy looks much more impressive.

Only if they dropped the weight and bounced at the bottom. But even then, the taller person is moving it 4 times as far each way (up and down). So in order to build enough momentum on the way down to bounce it all the way back up, you will tear something. Or break your ribs for bench press.

Cannot argue that if you are moving the weight with control. It goes back to angles (of you arm - the hinge) and physics.

That's my point exactly.  I know that it's gonna take longer, but as long as I continue to make progress I am happy and continue to enjoy training.

I don't have any delusions of turning pro, but if I could manage a weight class win on the state level, I could walk away happy.

[Thin Lizzy]

You guys seem to be making it more complicated that it is. Tall guys tend to have long muscles as opposed to the full muscles that are ideal for bodybuilding.
