Punch Power: 802 | | How's my overall health? (Just got back from a physical) Just got back from a health physical a while ago. How does my health sound?
-I'm 22 years old
-I'm 6 foot 3, weight 164.2 lbs. (I'm a skinny little s**t)
-Body fat is 11.6%
-Blood pressure was 118 over 78
-Right eye was 25/20 with near vision and 30/20 with far vision
-Left eye was 35/20 with near vision and 40/20 with far vision
The main thing I'm concerned about is my vision. Right now I still don't need glasses, I can see and read just fine, but is my vision a little off for someone my age?

And I'm eating burgers, it's not working.  |

Your body fat percentage isn't alarmingly low really, i was just messing around.. but it wouldn't hurt to gain weight if it's possible.. i'd be scared if you lost weight, though. |

Punch Power: 1426 | | Re: How's my overall health? (Just got back from a physical) +780 Got my bodyfat done just yesterday - 12%
10-18% is "healthy"
under 10% is under, so you're just fine there Clubber.
Not much you can do about your eyes mate and at the end of the day, the worst thing that happens is you get glasses.
You're in no danger of losing your sight!

I'm assuming you were pretty bad. |

I'm assuming you were pretty bad. | I did it twice. Once for the provincials, cutting from around 161 to 154 making (70kgs), as was only way to get fights made. Then had a fight in between 75 kg but was closer to 162, then shortly after cut again to 69kg to get a match. Did that all in a 6-7 week period or so. Rediculous stuff. I even sauna'd the morning of one fight, or it wasn't going to happen. To shave off 2 more lbs. Like I say, did just about every wrong thing a person could. And yea, I was messed up. Won them tho, decisively. One stoppage on pts, other Unam. decision with a KD. But lacked normal power and luckily didn't take much in the way of shots. Won't be tryin' to make 69 or 70 kg again, like ever. Just too dangerous, and also even harder as I continue to naturally grow. Walking around right at 165 (75kg) now.
If I had been up against better opponents I think i would have been in a world of trouble. | |
