Bodybuilders lying about their height? Hmm.

[Skylge]

Chuck Liddel lied about his reach, I forgot how him and his trainer did it officially,  but they lied listing a shorter reach by like 3 or 4 inches,  this completely threw off his opponents, he talked about in some interview. Now this is a great reason to lie.

Reach is BS, Tyson had less reach than all of his opponents, but he beat them all (in his prime)

[Sexybeast777]

Well...as you said, height does vary by time of day.  I am probably 5'9, as I have been on the couch lying down reading Getbig and other things online for the past several hours, lol.  After a full eight hours sleeping, as you said, you can be up to an inch taller than your shortest height.  In my case,  I don't think I have ever measured myself outside of the 5'8.3" to 5'9.3" range.  But since I am almost always over 5'8.5", I consider it "fair" to round up to 5'9.  I mean...it's not way off or anything.  Maybe a centimetre at most.

in your case is different, you ARE 5'9'', you legit reach 5'9'', even SURPASS that height, after 8-12 hours of deep sleep, you DO have the right to claim that height, 100%

Wiki lists Buendia at 5'7 and other places he's listed at 5'8.

Looks about 5'6. Can't find one next to Breon.

Bwendia is lying. I've seen him many times and he's not 5'7.  That is a lie.  Many of these guys lie about their height and weight.  I've been the Mr. O the last 18 years and other shows.  I've seen them all talked to them all. Many are lying on height and weight.

Bwendia is 5'6. Phil is actually closer to 5'10.

People that were shorter than I thought when I met them were

Melvin Anthony
Shawn Ray
Bwendia
Breon
Ronnie Coleman- (True height before back problems definitely not 5'11. He's around 5'9-5'10 tops.


I'm sure there are many others, just don't remember but bring up a name and I'll know if I met them.  I have a good memory for this because when I went to my first Mr. O in 99.  I remembered how much shorter everyone was then what they said.

Agree.  Here is Shawn next to Breon. He is wearing shoes and Breon is leaning to the side. SR 5'5?

I can't imagine what Roelly looks like in person at 5'6 260.   Jay Cutler looked shorter then I expected when I saw him.

[Sexybeast777]

I would say Shawn Ray was legit 5'7'' in his prime, he is older now, maybe he's 5'6'' now, no less than that

[IRON CROSS]

When I measured Arnold's height in January 1968 he was 1/2 inch shorter than the 6-2 claimed. Paul Graham and Bob Bruce were also 1/2 inch shorter than claimed.

I was 5-9.5 as claimed.

Many bodybuilders exaggerate height, weight, measurements, strength, and IQ! Some claim to be younger than they actually are. Albert Beckles did the opposite.

Why should anyone believe U

Phil looks 6'3"" next to them lol

I've met Shawn Ray, he's probably 5'5, and looked like a milk dud, it's a shame because he probably had one of the top 5 best physiques of all time. I'm not saying he has to maintain his 90's build but at least maintain an athletic build along the lines of Labrada.

Seems he's been back at the gym.

My pleasure today was to kick the ass of World Champion of Bodybuilding Shawn Ray on his first day back in the gym after a year on the sofa. Great first day back Shawn! Let's stay consistent and can't wait for our next week's session, Leg day baby 🤣💪🏼💪🏼❤️🔑🔑🙏🏽🙏🏽

Or maybe he's just trying to bang her. Why would a seasoned bodybuilder, a Mr. Olympia runner up and Arnold classic champ, have to hire a girl to train him? Especially legs? Ray had some of the best wheels ever.

Motivation.

Motivation.

Exactly, at the end of the day, that why we all got into working out, it's pussy, plain and simple. Well glad to see he's back in the gym.

Even people 6 ft lie

Louie claims 6’5 and Arnold claims 6’2

In the end people just lie

Is that a fair rule to standard?  If so, great!!  Then I can call myself 5'9, as I am at least 5'9 and 1/4 in the morning, if not a cunt hair taller - putting me at 5'9.3" after a full night of rest.

It's just that sometimes I can shrink to almost a full inch shorter than that, and I am seldom much taller than 5'8.6" late in the day.    A height I have been since 17.

Plus people lie about their shoe size a lot, which just seems weird to me. Height I kinda understand but this?

Shawn Ray was measured at 5'6.5" in his doctor's office in his DVD.  He was 40 at the time.  So it's fair for him to call himself 5'7.  Though in the DVD, he said "I always thought I was 5'7.5" or something to that effect.

Cool of him to leave that in the DVD, as it was not an insecure thing.  Others may not want to include that.

Johnnie Jackson is around 5'7.5".  There are some other mistakes in this thread.  I agree that Phil Heath is probably a bit closer to 5'9.5".  Not sure why Wiggs said Ronnie was never over 5'10.  Wiggs himself is a weak 5'10, but Ronnie was a cunt hair taller than Wiggs, so I think Ronnie's prime height of 5'10.5" was realistic.

mr white , shawn ray looks like he has been on the sofa for more than a year and resembles more now  of a chocolate turd, your more vascular and in shape than he is.  also by the pics of breon he is a border line dwarf and i would say maybe 5-2 on a good day  with his gay ass lifting boots .

Dressing yourself in the dark to resemble a Ghetto Dwarf doesn't help you look taller.  Just look at Dori, Nori and Ori from the Hobbit to see what I mean.

It makes 'em look stubbier.

No, Ronnie is was never 5'11. I said 5'10 tops before surgery. I've never been 5'10. I'm your height.

we ALL shrink throughout the day, this is perfectly normal, I can be as short at 5'6'' and 3/4'' at the end of a rough day, but not always, many times my day ends and I'm still 5'7''. Today I slept a lot (15+ hours) and I was ALMOST 5'8'' when I woke up, it's a beautiful feeling

people are douchbags, get over it, some people literally LIE all they long, and LOVE telling bullshit stories to people, these people are ''pathological liers'', they love to lie, for fun, and they can't stop
