Grip strength is a better predictor of independent life span than BMI, or the other things your doctor measures.
All things being equal, being stronger will require more muscle.
That means adding weight, from muscle, is better than losing weight. Just stay off the roids because they have negative effects that outweigh the benefits of the added muscle.
TLDR ignore your weight and get stronger.
Agreed to a certain extent. I didn’t mean to suggest dieting or anything like that, more that if one has a ponch, there’s no harm in getting rid of that with some walking.
Yeah, looking like a hippo isn't ideal. My athletic performance goes to shit long before my abs appear so I don't have abs.
I figure performance is the best measure of health as long as you aren't gaming the system to get that performance. No roids, recovery is huge, creatine is great.
