: >>>Why don't the guys asking for cycle advice include how tall they are? It is rare that they mention this, but they normally give their weight and [somehow] know their body fat %. Better yet, why is it that no one seems to ask? Most off the postings asking for an opinion on a cycle or what gear to use are from guys under 200lbs. Obviously 190lbs. at 5ft 9in is very different than at 6ft 1in. I am no juice guru and I don't try to answer questions best anwsered by our resident veterns. The abscence of information like this seems remiss to me. This is ment as a constructive observation. My 2 cents.... LIFT AND LEARN! >FLATTOP<
It does stand to reason that height is a factor in muscle growth, after all, a
tall guy can potentially gain more muscle weight than a short guy.
However, pharmaceutical dosing is generally figured out in relation
to body weight. It ain't perfect, but its probably better than taking
height only into account.
Your point is well taken, I would expect a 6 footer to perhaps gain more
weight on the same cycle that a 4 foot midget was taking.
