KickinCroft Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 Heya peeps, am i fat? too fat for sports? i am 17 and am 155cms tall and 47kilos,i constantly diet (starve) then binge,it`s a vicious cycle that won`t go away,what should i do? help!
SaiFightsMS Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 First I moved this post to health and fitness because it better fits here. Second the binge/purge cycle is not good for anyone. 103 pounds at 155cm erumm about 5'2" is not fat for someone with muscle tone. My sister of the same height wore size 1 and 3 clothers at 98 pounds. Definately not fat.
Jack Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 You are not fat at all. I suggest you give up the binge/purge cycle and do some proper research into healthy eating and exercise. Starving is a definite no-no! JackCurrently 'off' from formal MA trainingKarateForums.com
Eye of the Tiger Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 Don't starve yourself. It's nit good for anyone, besides your not even fat! If anyone wants to slim down you should still eat but avoid any fatty foods and eat lean meats and vegetables and take up more exercise.
SaiFightsMS Posted June 3, 2002 Posted June 3, 2002 I was thinking about this and there is something else you need to take into account that really for an athlete matters more than how much they weigh. It is body fat percentage. Remember that muscle weighs more than fat so that an athletic five foot two inch girl will weigh more than a couch potato of the same height and waist measurement. Don't be a slave to the scale.
DeeLovesKarate Posted July 24, 2002 Posted July 24, 2002 i think you should talk to your doctor, cause they have little charts that tell you that stuff. Also, you can go to bollingerfitness.com and find out your bmi and body fat percentage, and compare it to the norm. Grrrrrr, Dee Dee C.Normal ( 'nor-m&l)-an adj. used by humans to stereotype
