I'm 13 and I'm 5"9. I weigh 130 lbs. none of this is fat, I have like no fat so this is all muscle.
Is this good or bad?

Nargal · August 2012

isnt that like 60 kilos? . i'm 5 inchs taller then you and i weigh 95 kilos o.o (slightly overweight)

tastylime23g · August 2012

Not sure if serious. You definitely aren't "all muscle" if you've never touched a weight in your life.

I have, I lift daily

tastylime23g · August 2012

I need pictures to make further assessment but generally your stats are pretty horrible. 5'9 at 130lbs? You don't even look like you lift probably.

generalnic26 · August 2012

im 13, idk how thats a horrible weight.

generalnic26 · August 2012

Also, if you really think that's bad, then give me some tips for reps, simple stuff cus i only have a bench press, pull up bar and weights.

cba to do some real research on this right now but puberty is dependent on hormones released from fat cells.
deficiency (whether or not this requires actual fat deposits as in fatty tissue or subcutaneous fat you won't get rid of regardless is unclear), can as such halt growing (in _all_ areas).

you need food. eat food. nobody in their right mind with his or her health in mind does serious workout and diet at 13 without advice from a proper nutritionist.

also wtf? does gigantism run in your family? 5"9 at 13. i'm barely 5"9 at 22.

i knew a kid that was 6'4" at the age of 13

130 lbs 5'9" is fine. look at a bmi chart

[dot] · August 2012

i'm in excellent shape according to a bmi chart
in reality its mostly fat and little muscle, bmi means nothing.

means even less if its mostly muscle and little fat.

bmi shows whether you're underweight, healthy, overweight or obese.

RawrJafrikan · August 2012

Something is wrong and you should eat more. Then again, you are 13 so you are still growing and don't have bone mass I'm guessing...

I'm 5''10- 142lbs and I started lifting about 2 months ago. Looking to gain about 15lbs of muscle by the next year.

Let puberty do its work first before you start lifting weights.

throneofGod · August 2012

you shouldn't even bother with lifting at that age tbh unless you want to compete. simple things like push-ups, pull-ups, low-weight dumbbell exercises, and cardio workouts should be enough. I'm personally about to go back to the gym and stack up on whey protein or mass gainer. my friend tried gold standard and mass gainer so far and i'm seeing pretty good results from him. I'm almost 20 though and weigh at approximately 170, 6'5" so i do need to bulk up but i wouldn't recommend doing so until you're at least like 18(i pulled this number out of my ass... lol but you get my point)

Pink_Squirel · August 2012

I was 135 pounds when I was 5'6 with 6% body fat (I think 2-5% are essential body fat)

If you're lifting daily, I still think you should be weighing more than that

What body muscles are you working? And are you sure you're eating properly, especially after a workout?

Yeah.. At 13 you shouldn't be lifting 2 hours daily(e.g), you should wait until you're like 16 yo.

not in any way related to your health, as it'll show a bulked up short guy as obese when in reality he doesn't have an ounce of fat.

ManInMotion · August 2012

5'9 at 13? Wow.
I'm about 6 foot at 19... you're probably going to grow to 6'3+ in adulthood. You shouldn't really be lifting weights at 13 either... you're still going through puberty.

Gooooooooose · August 2012

Don't lift weights, you have barely more testosterone than an equivalent aged female. Do body-weight exercises, and hit the weights when you're atleast 15-16. You'll still get a good physique.

If you have alot of muscle, BMI could tell you youre overweight and you could be completely healthy.

13 and lifting weights? Are you for real?

NattNatt · August 2012

bad.

working out//lifting weights at that age can cause irreversible damage to your muscle AND skeleton structures...

MAWD_Wanted · August 2012

Daft ****, hardly all muscle are you dumb?

Lifting goign trough puberty makes no difference pal.

It's a simple scale which is used only to determine whether a physically inactive person is healthy or not in terms of body fat percentage. as long as the person is not doing intense body building the scale suits its' purpose

Horrible logic. Some people bloom earlier than others, some later.

Everyone in the bodybuilding world knows Bale cycled on steroids for his roles, or went on extreme cutting diets with the use of other illicit drugs (such as clenbuterol or dnp) His body and endorphin system must be seriously messed up.

Giggletron · August 2012

Holy crap..... Bale's body must want him dead right about now
