I wish I were taller. I'm 5'9", 200 lbs., around 8% BF. I shave my head because nature's shaving it for me, I just finish it off. People are afraid of me when I'm in a good mood. If you're taller and more in porportion, at least you look less menacing. I'll probably put on another 10-15 lbs in the next 14 weeks. Sometimes I wonder why I do it...

5'8" and 250 at that bf% is not small, but you know that already. It's just the total mindfuck that is bodybuilding. You're never big enough just like you can never be rich enough. I've heard people say "if I only had x amount of money I'd never work again". The problem is they will never get there because the same thing that gets people to that level is the same thing that drives them for more. Focused athletes are never satisfied. They strive to get bigger and leaner then bigger then leaner and so on. The only thing that stops you is the genetic limits and with gear those limits are increased but they aren't unlimited. I think of people that are 6'3" and want to weigh 300lbs ripped and think, "why the fuck, that's just too big". But it's not. Too big is a moving target,it always stays out in front of you. I guess you'd be too big if your legs were so big you couldn't get your dick close enough to a woman to hit it. That would be too big I guess.

At 5'8 1/2" and 196lbs right now I know I'm at least muscularly and structurally bigger and stronger than 99% of the guys walking around that don't lift. Compared to guys that do lift I know I'm in the higher percentage of guys do to my naturally endo-mesomorph build and average height and poential for rugged size. I am not satisfied with my muscular size right now but at 215 or more pounds and 9-10% BF I KNOW I would be happy. Whether I weigh 215 or 240 depends primarily on achieving the muscular size I want and the level of bodyfat I need to see solid definition. A 50" chest, 18" guns and every thing else in proportion with some good definition would suit me just fine.

My problem is that when Im cut up I feel small as shit and cant wait to start bulking up again, then, once Im bulking and holding a little bf I feel big but chubby at the same time and want to be shredded again, I can never find a happy medium. Sometimes I actually wish I never got into this whole lifestyle, once your in, your always in, I see no end.

I'm on the small end of most of the bros here. At 5'8" and 210-212 at 10-12% i'm by no means national caliber, but with 18" arms and 48" chest and 32" waist...i'm no small kid. The following always helps me put things in perspective.
1-After a good chest, shoulder or arm workout, hit the shower.
2-Get out and find one of those dudes that stands in front of the mirror posing for an hour but only weighs a buck fifty at 6'.
3-Stand beside said "Mr. Olympia" and hit a nice front double bi followed by an abs/thigh.
4- Watch the guy slink off and while he's walking off, ask him when he's competing next.
Ill mannered? Maybe! But it does wonders for your self image.

Eat up...6'5" 250 here...it's tough to gain for some of us, you HAVE TO STAY CONSISTANT, no room for errors in training eating and sleep.

I guess in the end I would rather feel skinny then fat. I was up to 12% in march at 248 and just about cried myself to sleep I felt so fat. Maybe I'll try to get back to the 6 to 8% range and then put some clean size on...
I feel like a fucking girl thinking like this... someone kick me in the balls if I ask if my ass looks fat in a pair of jeans... LOL

when i started training, i was 154lbs, at 5'11. skinny as shit. i remember thinking to myself, if i ever got to 200, i would just maintain! hahha what a joke that turned out to be. i was 200 within 6 months, using a bit of creatine and learning how to eat.
now at 250, i still feel skinny and feel i look the same as i did in highschool. maybe 300, i;ll just maintain

if I weigh so much as a pound more than you, you wont be happy just maintaining, and I'll never stop growing......

You can throw me a lil beef this way DT...6'3.5", 242lbs, about 9%. One of my issues is some of my boys are 5'4", and 5'7" and they have the symmetry I want. I can see steady progression, but I do feel alltraps on the high school comment. I guess it's what I have come to expect, when I was 190 in high school I thought 200 would safice, after 200 I needed 215, after 215....etc. There is something to be said about this lifestyle but most girls love it. Due to guys like us it has become a standard, and I wouldn't change it! Who actually wants to no longer have goals??? Who beleives that if they actually reached their long term goals that they wouldn't set new ones??????? It's a love/hate relationship and that is why we all strive... it's about the journey without a destination. IMO

I hear you guys on the high shool comment... thats what I see half the time... 6'3" and 162.. lol.... sometimes I see college... 230 almost 28% bf. Once a month I catch myself in the mirror and I think "I wish I looked like that" and its me. It usually takes seeing a picture someone took to make me feel better.
I don't know. I think I am going to cut the bodyfat and increase the lbm. mmmm.. 250 sounds real nice!

any of you guys ever see the totally opposite at the gym? ya know the guys who are either just totally bloated with NO muscle tone at all walkin around like hes the shit? of the super skinnyguy wearin the wife beaters all the time. i have to admit when i started seing some results, at first i thought i was biger then i was. but i have to admit when your confidence is high the chicks can sence it, getting you tons of puusy just today i had run to the mall, and for some reason my confidence was low. i felt skinny as fuck at 230+ 6'4. but then i thought of this thread and started pepole watching. i noticed i was bigger then everyone at the time i was there. it definatly keeps me motivated, but i want that confidence back again. i mean when im off cycle and after a few beers i do feel big, cut, but i wantthat feeling all the time, but judging by this thread i dont think thats gonna happen
unless i become a lush

Oh man... I was helping a buddy out this weekend. He promoted a BB show up here. We took Palumbo out on the town. Funny thing was... I didn't feel too small. Then someone handed me a picture of me standing next to him. 6'3" 240 looks like a fucking stalk of corn blowing in the wind next to him at 270! I will post it in my gallery. I have no idea how to post it otherwise.

This is what makes us desire things....because once we obtain what we desire (a new car, a new chick or to be 240 w/ 4% bf) we can never desire these things any more.
It has nothing to do with bodybuilding or the gear...it's human nature. We want what we don't / can't have.
The only way to truly be content with ourselves....is to be happy with what we do have, and not to crave what we don't.
I look at a lot of the Avatars on this page and would love to be as big as some of you guys....you have to remember that if you're over 200lbs and cut...you're bigger than probably 90% of the people in North America. (And 100% of the people in Asia)
(sorry...bad joke) If you're gonna do a cycle, then do it to make yourself happy.....because if you don't, you'll end up trying to fufill a dream that will never come true.
just my two pennies....

Dude, i spit diet coke outta my nose when i read this. (burns like hell BTW)!
I used to train at Gold's in Columbia, SC and we had this guy named "Bubba" that lifted there. Your description fit his bill perfectly. He was like 5'7", easy 315-325 with probably 30%bf. He would come in every morning at 5:30, jump rope for about 30 seconds max (if thats what you wanna call it), then throw 315 on the bench. He would proceed to walk around for at least 30 minutes getting himself pumped up, and then jump on the bench. The following is the only way that i can describe what happened next. He would unrack the weight and start convulsing for about a minute. I'm talking a full 3" range of motion at warp speed! Funniest shit you can imagine.
