I'm probably going to start playing footy for the first time next year :thumbsu: I want to get myself to the level where I'm easily the fittest player out there, so I can really contribute and be a good player.

You won't be the fittest person if you're just starting to play. Match fitness is the crucial element of fitness. Have to be able to take a hit to the body and get up and go again. Weights and running don't train you for that.

Well I've been playing basketball about 4-5 days a week for 15 years, so I'm not just getting up off the couch and expecting to have the fitness there. I'm going to work on it, and I understand there's a physical side to it (in comparison to basketball) that I'm fully prepared for and willing to work very hard on as well.

I've always prided myself on being the hardest worker in any sport I've played, and I don't want footy to be any different. I'm not just going out for a kick and a laugh. I'm taking it seriously, even if I won't be playing at a high level. I set my goals high and try my best to reach them, whether they seem unrealistic to others or not.
 
Height: 6ft 6/200-202cm (Probably a bit taller; haven't measured myself in 2 years)
Weight: 85kg

Age: 20

I need to put on some weight (would like to get over the 100) but my metabolism prevents me from doing so. However, I got commented on that I had nice legs yesterday. :o

The only thing I hate being tall is getting clothes that are perfect length but are way to wide/ getting perfect width but way too short.

6'1, dunno what that is in cm. About 77kg or so.

Just turned 25 and still find it hard to gain a lot of weight, though when I do weights I can gain muscle pretty fast. Is that weird? My body burns fat very fast, but now I'm mid twenties I want to maintain my fitness and even improve on it.
 
18, closer to 19. 180cm I think, 68kg around there.

I literally can't put on weight. Must have a fast mentabolism...which I know will fade. So I'l enjoy it whilst I can! Wouldn't mind cracking 70kgs though...

To all the guys who have speedy metabolism

You need to do weights 3-4 times a week.
Eat Pasta/Bread/protein shakes...and increase you daily intake considerably.

You get results its just trying to find the right way to go about it.

nahh......I am as soft as butter.:o
 
I'm 189cm and 73kg. I was 69kg a few months ago but I hit the gym. I've recently turned 17 and am eligible for the draft this year, but am not going to be picked because of my lack of toughness, lack of football skill and the fact that I play basketball anyway.
