I know it's not. However, what I said largely seems to be the case in mma. Tall fighters who are +6ft are either cans or gatekeepers at LW or below (generally speaking). How else do we explain why they get fucking manhandled by guys like Gastellum or Hughes or GSP? And why are all the champs, top fighters and contenders not tall at these weight classes?
And they tend to get dominated physically by the shorter more stout and built fighters. If the taller fighters were to be as strong as the shorter more built guys they would have to bulk and gain mass and wouldn't be able to make their current weight division. There is a reason why all the tall fighters in low weight classes are weak as fuck and get thrown are round by shorter but way strong grapplers.
You are obviously to ignorant to understand the importance of strength. You also, fail to realize that while mma is not body building the same limits to muscle mass and strength and typical lean max body mass an individual can obtain is the same.
At 6% body fat more or less yes. For a natural lifter
And the only people who don't like this information are rounder short fatties. And tall skinny fat or skinny bean poles if you are 6'3 or 6'4 you shouldn't be fighting at WW let alone below WW. You need to fucking eat, gain some strength and mass, and grow a pair and fight guys around your same height.
I don't like this chart for the reason that it is bullshit.
I am 5'11. Before I started taking SARMS in early spring, I was 185 and about 8% bodyfat. That would be 5 lbs HEAVIER than the max for a natural bodybuilder. I am not a bodybuilder. I workout for fun. I know it's not "natural" but after SARMS I am 195 lbs and about 10% BF. I have never taken steroids. I think this chart in the very least needs to increase the amount of LBM a natural bodybuilder can put on.
I would venture that Steve Reeves was about 7% BF at 215 lbs, 6'1 in his prime. That would put him at 200 lbs LBM, or in other words, 23 lbs HEAVIER than the max potential for a natty bodybuilder.
The chart sucks.
