Hockey players' body weight

Well. There is somewhere the foto of Martin Stlouis legs. That”s the answer. Muscle weighs.

Sorry to hear you were ill, but I would state setting realistic fitness goals for healthy weight loss is a lot different than, "I got sick and lost a lot of weight that way." Apologies if I misinterpreted what you meant here.

I experienced severe muscle atrophy due to a prolonged illness and stay in hospital, and I entered the hospital at a healthy weight and lost 35% of my weight at its lowest point and at no point did I feel or look healthy or would be considered to be in good health.

Nobody with cancer says "I always wanted to be thin like this." Just as everyone's bodies are different, there are healthy or unhealthy weight loss methods.

It was more psychological. Too depressed and anxious to bother with eating.

Point is, I've gotten a chance to see myself at a wide array of weights (almost a 100-pound window) I hated absolutely everything about my body and physical performance at a weight that most people insist is a healthy weight for my height. And that's unrelated to any physical illness. I was weak and looked like a skeleton. My ribs started showing at 180.

Some people are just big. As I've mentioned, I'm a bit out of shape now, but I was 222 when I was in the best shape of my life. That's right before I had my difficulties. I was 23 and lean as hell. I wanna go back in time.

6'2" and 170lb is a BMI of 21.8. 200+ would be in the overweight category, which is fine if you're an NHL player and it's your job to add muscle, but not if you spend more time posting on here than in the rink or the weight room.

BMI doesn't account for muscle mass vs fat, among other problems. Hardly a reliable indicator of anything other than the formula needing a number at the end.

I looked up a ton of players height and weight in the last few years and it does seems a little odd that almost every player is no smaller that 6 feet and lighter than 190 pounds. I have a feeling they are exaggerated, but can never understand why.

These numbers mean absolutely nothing in a vacuum.

If Mitch Marner is 180 pounds then the Pope isn't catholic. No way that man is milligram over 155 lbs and that's probably pushing it.

This means that you’re probably fat. And maybe take a trip outside of the United States for once.

I might be fat but at 200 pounds I'm not. And I've spent maybe three days in the United States in the past decade so a trip outside it isn't really necessary.

The listed weights of players are exaggerated remember i would minus 5 lbs at least.

WTF is up with all these off-season threads?
