5'11" 255lbs @ 6.5% bf just started training for a show in August. I'll get to just over 260 and then I'll cut down to 245lbs @ 3% bf pull my water and step on stage at about 237lbs.
Ideally would like to be about 240lbs @6% bf. Its alot easier to move and breathe at that weight .

in the medical profession, ideal body weight (IBW) is calculated like this...
IBW
Estimated ideal body weight in (kg)
Males: IBW = 50 kg + 2.3 kg for each inch over 5 feet.
Females: IBW = 45.5 kg + 2.3 kg for each inch over 5 feet.
ABW
Estimated adjusted body weight (kg)
If the actual body weight is greater than 30% of the calculated IBW, calculate the adjusted body weight (ABW):
ABW = IBW + 0.4(actual weight - IBW)
The IBW and ABW are used to calculate medication dosages when the patient is obese.
Bwahaha, my ideal bodyweight, assuming I have a normal frame, is 135lbs. I have a small frame though, so my ideal is probably a little lower, I was 112lbs when I graduated high school. So, according to modern medicine, I'm at least 45lbs over my ideal weight, more like 55-60 when I'm really bulking. Also, my BMI puts me right on the cusp between simply "obese" and "morbidly obese". Yet my bodyfat % is about 5% below "normal". God I love modern medicine hehehe

hey we're in the same boat you little penguin fucker !!
i graduated around 113lbs and lifted for about 6-7 years before juicing. my natty best weight was 118lbs ~~ i'm 5'7 and very small frame, so at 140lbs now i look like very ripped/muscular. my goal is 160 and i should actually looked JACKED at that weight, which is still super light compared to everyone here.
