RE: Fit or Fat???
Half of my basement is a workout area with gym quality machines, power-rack, 3 Olympic free weight sets and some cardio equipment. I like to refer to my type of lifting as a powerbuilder which is half bodybuilder and half powerlifter.
5'9" and about 200 pounds.

RE: Fit or Fat???
5'10' 190 lbs. 61 years old.
I run 20 to 25 miles a week at a pace of 10 to 11 minute miles and lift weights twice a week. I bench 220 most times. I havea little around the waist, butwould say I am mostly fit.
I don't know about being happy, but I am content with myself and with my life.

Im 47 5'5" 145.
I race GNCCoff road dirt bikes and quads to keep in shape.
In winter I ice skate and do the occasional hockey pick up game.
I eat whatever I want and don't drink much beer.
BOTH my parents were overweight and had heart problems, both are not with me anymore.
I remember my Dad saying, "eat that fat junior (from a steak)it will line your veins".
No thanks.

RE: Fit or Fat???
Thats the trick right there, muscle weighs more than fat. you could be fat at your weight by normal standards but if you have a lot of muscle mass there could be no body fat on you. A good friend of mine works out everyday and he is 5-6 190 lbs and has no fat on him.
Me I am 5-7 and 167 and no fat. He just has a ton of big muscles. I still schooled him, I took him to work and made him cry by slinging plywood. He couldnt understand how I could throw the stuff like paper and he was struggling. Its about the technique and balance
