Post by: The Squadfather on December 04, 2006, 12:27:09 PM: 140 is light for 4'10" let alone 5'10", most women weigh more than that.

Post by: pobrecito on December 04, 2006, 01:48:33 PM: just the considered "normal" weight for a male 5'10 is 166lbs. Considering you are posting on a bodybuilding board...that should be closer to 200.

are you trying to say the must muscle women find attractive on a 5'10''guy is 184 lbs your pretty far off. sure they dont like mass monsters like ronnie, but a solid 225 will pull way more chicks bro.

20% body fat has a way of doing that to people.

Post by: mdgkmg on December 23, 2006, 10:33:56 AM: yea i'd say you're a little on the feather weight side pal. your size is actually considered good in the little redneck area i'm from but personally i'm 5'9 175 and turn heads all the time. i'd start packin on some serious size if i were you. but don't try adding size to quickly that'll just end up in deformity's. w/e you decide best of luck to ya.

Post by: haider on January 05, 2007, 10:35:33 PM: 140 is very skinny for 5 10, even on the BMI scale I think.
Title: Re: Good weight for 5'10"
Post by: Rimbaud on January 06, 2007, 09:18:13 AM: I agree with everyone who said depending on your goals. I would say maybe between 180-200.
