Generic limit

[evander1972]

A lot is talked about on here about your Generic limit. Take an average guy of 5'10" what would his generic limit be roughly? I know everybody is different but there must be an average weight your not going to go past at that height.

I think you mean genetic limit....5'10 is usually around 190 naturally....could go as high as 250 or more enhanced...

depends on body type ecto/endo/meso endo/meso have alot of potential natty.

Yeh Genetic sorry, eek as low as 190. No wonder I was starting to strugle last year to build naturally. Cheers

Georgie nailed it...I know guys who are natural and over 210 with low BF that are 5' 10"....the two guys I am thinking of also have large legs naturally and with training they are tree trunks. I think it really depends on your body type and even bone structure. Guys with wide shoulders can build impressive backs with size and thickness naturally. Lots of variables.

I ASSUME YOU MEAN GENETIC. TO GET AN IDEA, YOU NEED TO RUN A BATTERY OF BLOOD TESTS THAT I HAVE BEEN RECOMMENDING FOR ABOUT A YEAR. ALSO, NEED TO DETERMINE WEIGHT GAIN/LOSS HISTORY. ALSO, IS THE SUBJECT AN ENDOMORPH, MESOMORPH OR ECTOMORPH? HEIGHT AND WEIGHT ARE GOOD FOR DETECTING DISEASE STATES, BUT USELESS FOR THE ATHLETE.

Yeh Bro I was just cuious because its said wait till you reach you genetic limit before juicing. But who knows what theyre limit is and everyones different. Are you not putting on because your not eating enough or is it because youve reached your limit. I know theres so many variables but I was just wondering if there was an rough average.

5'10"? i'd say 190 is way too low- i think many bros are capable of 220 quite comfortably at that height and natty. i'd say u'd have to be a hard gainer if 190 is ur genetic limit at 5'10". JMO

when you stop growing naturally, and have tried every training approach and supplement, and your training and nutrition is sound, then you have probably reached your genetic limit
