Well I guess all wrestlers are underweight but I guess you know nothing about gentic limitations and building muscle. 140 lbs is the lowest weight I can get and this is where I have the least fat. Most men who are around 185 their lowest weight would be 165 if they stripped off all their fat. So at 18 weighing 140 how does that make me unhlealthy. If my blood pressure cholestrol and everything is perfect I don't know how that makes me underweight or unhelathy. If i was 165 at 15 percent body fat would that make me more healthy? I doubt it. So I guess all athletes weighing 140 lbs and below are unhealthy including wrestlers. Some people are shorter some are smaller. At 5 6 weighing 140 lbs with very little fat makes me unhlealthy?
I'm only 18 I haven't started my bulking phase something I will do in the summer to reach 165. My goals are simple minimum fat maximul muscle. My goal is not throw my body fat to a another level. If you saw me you would not say I am underweight. I'll post a picture soon.



Your profile says you are 5'8, not 5'6.
