i tried askng this on the mens physique section but only the fat asain showed up and trolled a bit, so lets see how this q goes here with all you competitive athletes on board
it seems the answer is as much as possible while still keeping a tight tiny and narrow waist, basically this waist is what sets us apart from all else
the limit weight for a classic bb is 2 billz at 5'11" but some mens physique guys are heavier than this at that height which makes no fucking sense ???
-
Are we talking about off-season weight vs. regulation weight, which may explain that?

why the fuck would it matter what weight they were off season?
they only weigh you at the show.

#200 sounds about right for a guy around 5'10 - 5' 11". Then perhaps a maximum jump of 10lbs/inch of extra height would be a good range for Classic.
You'd probably want to -10% - 15% off of that for Physique.
Of course, you'd go by the mirror also, but those are the ranges that make sense to me to keep the lines fully defined between the classes.
This is one of those problems where it will take some time to figure out. Sort of like how powerlifting / olympic lifting has to shuffle the weight classes every few years.

yeah, i thought they created this classic bb class because some of the mens physique guys were getting too big
so they have this now and still some of the mens physique guys outweigh the classic bb WTF ???
classic bb have the whole package while physique is only above the waist, so they should not outweigh the classic bb's ffs
im planning on competiting in physqiue and i'm planning on weighing 175-180 on stage

dp you think you can build a physique like this?
You do realize that if you do compete in physique that you won't have to squat but some sets of leg extensions, leg curls and calf raises might be in order ofter 4 decades of atrophy

i cant do leg extensions due to my kneecap being dislocated playing basketball, yes i am a decent real athlete
and i had 2 surgeries on it and if i try to do leg extensions it hurts like a bitch
heres my legs when i actually had a trainer training me on them
yeah ive got very good genetics, just like Dr. Blakely decreed some years ago

This is a good topic.
I've always felt that a person's bone structure dictates how much muscle they can have and still be aesthetic.
When a short guy gets too big, he tends to actually look overweight in street clothes.
Why?
Because it is simply too much size for the bone structure... the skeleton.
It doesn't look right.
Steve Reeves used to say two hundred pounds at six feet tall.
Then you go up 15lbs. for every inch above.
Reeves was 6'1" and weighed 215lbs.
I know that sounds quite small nowadays.
When a guy like Frank Zane is just above two hundred at 5'9", then 200lbs. at 6' seems too small.
-

I only asked because why would a MPD competitor weigh more than a CBD competitor at the same height?
there is no weight limits in mens physique chief
and yeah im talikng on stage weight

My bad - I thought they both have weight limits based on height.
Without weight limits, there is a risk MPD just turns into CBD as competitors gain more and more muscle. Will be interesting to see if good judging keeps this in check as the years go by.

very good points
bone structure also includes joint size not just height
my wrists are the widest and biggest past are under 6 inches, thats why i have MARVEL SUPERHERO MUSCLES

I couldn't agree more - and unless some sort of objective check is put in place, MPD is bound to evolve into CBD and then into men's open bodybuilding. A lot of people talk about how bodybuilding today is not like it used to be, and that the ironage was better, and so on, but what exactly do people think bodybuilding would become? As competitors got bigger and - to a lesser extent - leaner, wouldn't it make sense that bodybuilding became what it did once Dorian started winning his Sandows?
Put maximum weight to height ratios in place for MPD, and we can see three distinct divisions in the IFBB. If a particular competitor is not satisfied with one division, he can always change divisions. And with that in mind, do you know who has been killing it lately in the Classic Bodybuilding Division? None other than a 49-year-old Darrem Charles!
Darrem has scored an astounding six CBD wins in just over a year of the existence of the division! He currently ranks 13th in the world, and may well be top 10 in the world in the division soon, but given that Darrem is turning 50 next year, that's pretty incredible. During his IFBB pro career as a bodybuilder [when there was only one class], he won eight pro shows, then a Master's show - the Atlantic City Pro in 2008, when he just turned 40.
So Darrem Charles may well be one of the best examples we have of bodybuilding longevity - the only other example that I can think of who may be better would be Robby Robinson, who is 70, and still in great shape. Darrem has literally been in top shape since 1989, when he won the IFBB World Amateur Championships at age 21. Talk about impressive longevity. Darrem decided to approach bodybuilding in an intelligent fashion, much like Shawn Ray, and as a result, he gets to see continual benefits from the lifestyle.

300 with abs of course. ;D
But seriously bbing is about illusions. The weight isn’t important, it is how the guy looks on stage. (No homo)

btw, is this too lean for MP?
i think it is

Reeves was 6'1" and weighed 215lbs.
I've read that before as well. but not sure it really works that way....6'5" 275 is a lot different proportions to me that 6'1 215.

theres another bb fed that does classic comps and its been around longer than the ifdulldulls classic bb comp
and their on stage weight limit is 86 Kg for a 180 cm fella
thats a buck 90 @ 5'11
so 175-180 seems bout right

frank zane was never onstage at over 200 lbs.
and steve reeves is a legend buthis height/bodyweight/measurement chart has many holes including the illusion in bodybuilding which is why with his structure he was ABLE to look so proportionate
you can take anyone who has all those so called height/weight/measurement in perfect mathemeatical matchup, but it does not mean it will translate well onstage

Zane was over 2 bills in 82, and then in 83 he was @ a buck 82
guess which year he looked better? 😎

i like zane but that is bs. He claimed 190ish during 1977-79 era and was shredded like fuck, yet in 1983 he claimed 10lns less and was not as shredded.
my opinion, from 77-79 he was 175-180lbs tops shredded, 19080 he was way down because of that horrific injury, would not be surpised if he was under 175lbs there.
convenient hpw they stopped weighing them for the over and under 200 lbs mr olympia classes around then and all of a sudden everyone's claimed contests weight all of sudden jumped 20lbs.
the 1988 Mr Olypia Weigh ins shut down that bullsh
-
good point
liars the lot of them
arnie claimed 22 inch arms
AJ measured them at 19.5
at least mentzer was honest as he said his biggest was 18 5/8
doubt zanes arms were even 17
-
if synthol was available in arnolds day imagine how big his arms couldve been
