About 5' 8", ~160 lbs.
I put high priority on my work, so I don't get to go to the gym much. But when I do, I have an interesting system that focuses highly on strength (as opposed to mass). In other words, medium-low warm-up weight, rest, high weight, medium high, medium, etc, keeping the reps somewhere around 8-10, keeping rest to an absolute minimum. I do this like twice (dropping the warmup on the second+ sets) and I'm sore for a few days.

What I like about it is it does make you very disproportionately strong, and resistant to injury. It's definitely not for getting bigger though.

A little Tae Kwon Do for core strength and overall flexibility, swimming rarely because it's the summer. I also just started riding my bike to/from work again, which comes out to about 11 miles (usually only to work though, it's too dark when I get off, so make that 5.5ish =P). Very hilly area, too.

Really though, you guys doing 300+ pushups, 300+ situps aren't doing much for yourself, because you're getting your body too used to one thing, it's important to give your body variety if you want to improve.

I lost about 4 CM or so around my belly when I last measures. I wished I knew how much weight I lost, but the weighting scale is so fucked up. At least clothes fits me much better now. xD

It's funny; I used to be able to eat pretty much anything without weight gain; recently I've gotten a gut.

I'm....about 5'6, maybe. I'm not entirely sure on that, just know I've always been relatively short. For the life of me, I can't seem to break 120 lbs. I think the most I've massed was around 119, and last I checked I was 111 though I'm sure thats fluctuated slightly since. There was a time I attempted to actualy gain weight and somehow succeeded in loosing 6 pounds.

...yeah. Go figure.

Either way, I've never been that big of a guy. I'm somewhat muscular in my arms and lower chest, but I don't exactly work out a whole lot which leads me to believe it must just be genetics favoring me in some way. I'm not exactly looking to be all that muscular either, so I just let what little I have stay as is and let genetics take its course with me.

I'm 5'10" and average wt is ~125lbs. I've broken 130lbs before when I returned from my vacation in hawaii. However, I lost it all once school started again

When you look at me, you see that I need more muscle and should be eating more
