Hopefully the Dartmouth kid is a Taron Johnson clone or the Louisville or Rutty guys are a third box safety. Maybe the legacy kids adapt, overcome, and prevail. At least White has options.
BMI is most important when weight is added quickly. Too high a BMI indicates more fat and less muscle. Just an indicator and not the be all end all for a player.
Okay if you are saying those athletes never get too fat.
It was a generalized statement. There is certainly a segment that have unhealthy bodyfat percentages: some football lineman, sumo wrestlers, a few baseball players. By and large, elite athletes that have high BMIs do so because of high muscle mass.
Which is more important: BMI or body fat %. Even when I was thin, my BMI was over the ideal, due in large part to heavily muscled legs.
Body fat. Muscle is good. It's why BMI should be taken with a grain of salt. You have to look at body composition. A flabby 27 is bad. A built 28 is good, assuming it's healthy habits that got you to the 28 and not PEDs.
Oh really, but thats not what you said, and I was talking about a young guy who was adding weight quickly, and just maybe some of that might not be good weight, so I guess BMI would apply in that case. It is all about context.
Let’s talk about the Syracuse secondary a bit then.
Why do you think Elmore or any of the offensive lineman can provide more production then the D lineman we have? We have guys that were recruited to play DL in this specific scheme.
I think you do. Safety is going to be one of the more intriguing battles in camp. If healthy I see Clark playing FS.
You think he would be better than Lockett Darton and Fuentes?
We are in trouble if Elmore is playing on the D line.
There's a reason he has more snaps at LG and HB than DT.
I'm sorry. From now on I will attempt to remove any need for common sense interpretation of things that I say by being as specific and detailed as possible.
It has so far
kind of drives my wife nuts. As I say, I'm in great shape for a guy in my condition. ( Actually just crushed my stress test, for which I am thankful.)
Yeah, I exercise regularly and eat pretty well and my blood pressure is borderline with high cholesterol (low HDL) and triglycerides. People are surprised when I tell them. My wife isn't sedentary but doesn't exercise as much as me or watch her diet as closely, outside of caloric intake, and she has perfect cardio numbers. Sometimes genetics rule.It has so far
I think you're good...
I tell my wife I don't need a physical because my Bp is always good. (110/70. Or with 10 either way.)
Makes her a little crazy
Ive posted about my 89 year old father on this site. Steak eggs butter only cream in his coffee, ice cream and manhattans. He still climbs, rows Sails, mows his lawn and splits firewood. Weighs 5 pounds more than his Senior year at SU.
