I sit 8-10 hours a day, it is hard to program standing. I work out 1 hour 4 days a week with weights and am only overweight because a 6’2” male is suppose to weigh 175 pounds and I weigh 230.

175 pounds is ludicrous.

Right there with you on that. A little shorter and a few ponds lighter but probably a few years older. But do make it to the gym 5-6 days for weights and spining and @51 I’ll take that any day.

I agree. 6-2 and 175 lbs. might be the ideal weight to achieve some kind of homosexual chic, but most men are not built that way. I'm 5-11 with wide shoulders and when I weigh less than 200lbs I look skeletal.

I am 6'2" and I weigh 170. And you're right - I am ludicrous.

I find 230 lbs at 6’ 2” for a male to be attractive. Skinny is not attractive.
