Default man you're the perfect size

hah, you have nothing to worry about at your weight and age..you're the perfect body type to be doing Muay Thai. I remember when I was your age I had to work my ass off to keep my weight at 163 for fights. If you're still active within 3 years you'll probably weigh 25 pounds more due to your shoulder's getting bigger and that's if you don't get any taller too.
In regards to that transvestite..I haven't seen that one fight but I remember one in the late 90s from Lanna Muay Thai that was phenomenal..I guess he/she was just fighting to make enough money to get a sex change and finally did, they made a movie about him/her in Thailand.

Yah thats a good size, I'm 5'9" and around 170, not too bad actually, pretty lean, but my legs are shorter than the norm so kicking isn't my thing

5'8'', 5'6'' when I slouch

138-147 lbs within a week my weight changes...usually I'm about 145lbs
but....I bench reps over my bodyweight (on the machine 250 3 sets of 12), and can leg press (around 800...can't fit anymore 45 lb plates on), hip adduct and abduct (full rack 200lbs) and leg curl (full rack 200lbs) more than anyone that I work out with. (I've actually lost some strength since I dropped some weight, I used to max squat 575lbs)

last time I had it checked, I had 7% bodyfat. (I don't trust it, I still have a little tire, and the calipers might be cheating and favoring my ego rather than reality.) my waist is about 27 inc. circum.

Run, 2 7:30 min. miles in a row.

I think, abs, cardio, and some sparring and I'm ready for another fight with maybe 3 weeks notice.
