I am 5'5" tall. I competed in light heavy weight. Even with all the good supplies and all the good food it was very hard to be over 200 pounds and lean at the same time. Insulin was suggested to me, and I almost did it. I finally decided that I may die sooner because of this stuff, but I was not interested in making it any sooner than need be. So i backed off, and while i miss it, I do not miss the large stacks and endless cycles. I do not miss overeating all day everyday. Sadly that is what it takes to be a pro now.
