    Height:weight proportionality

    What up guys. I know this question has no definite answer and thats why I thought I would throw it into the AR Lounge also cuz its really not an important question, just something im curious about.
    So, I was wondering approx. if two people were to be the exact same proportionality but one was 6' and the other was say 6'1" how much heavier do u think the taller guy would be. And i know it varies by body type and what not, but Im just looking for a general guess even. So how much heavier should someone be per inch taller they are than you?
    I know it may be hard to understand but just try to gimme ur estimates brothas.

    BTW if any of you like hip hop you should get the Miri Ben Ari cd, its f'n awesome.

    this is nearly impossible to answer. you'll have a buffer range of like +/- 15 lbs. not everyone has the same bone structure.

    Funny I've wondered the same thing. For example, if I was 5"11, instead of 5'9, how much weight would those two inches of bone, muscle, organs, etc., come out to?
    I guesstimate 5-7 lbs an inch...

    I believe 7lbs per inch is avg. If you were comparing two peep one 5'3 the other 5'4, with another two say 6'3 and 6'4. The additional weigh required to make the two peeps in the second group proportinal would be higher in the second group.
