Title: Arnold's weight in the movies
Post by: skipope007 on September 10, 2008, 07:36:08 PM
Anyone know what Arnold weighed at his lightest in a leading role?  I thought someone said he was only like 215 lbs in one of the Conan movies but I find that hard to believe.  I'd think he'd have weighed more during his acting days than when he competed because his bodyfat didn't have to be so low.  Anyone know?????

he was 235 competition time at 6 foot 2
we got people here claiming to be 6' 2 and 270 pounds they don't realize that they are obese  :D

Yeah I thought he was 6'2" 235 and as much as 240 in competition.  I'm 6'2" as well and weigh about 215 and I don't have near the look Arnold did in any movie and if he only weighed 215 in Conan then I'm gonna wonder if he's not from another planet.

That's because you fail to translate from getbigese to english:  "6'2 and 270 lbs"  =  "5'5, 120 lbs, lives in mom's basement, works at walmart".

So, "I'm in sales, for a huge fortune 500 comp." = Teller at Walmart?

When Arnold was tied to the tree in the first Conan movie he dropped down to 210.
