So, I remember looking up athlete body types a few years back. My focus was on comparing sprinters to long distance runners.

I came across an interesting website that shows bodies from many different sports.

Since we are all here to remake ourselves, I figured it is a good time to ask whether you would be influenced by the finished physique of those in a chosen sport.

I know I would be. In college I had a dancer friend. Ballet, modern, etc. Her FEET! I never would want to do what she does (though I admire HER for it).

And now I'm on crutches with a torn Achilles' tendon and realizing how much each of them has come to mean to be as I'm staring down the barrel of a three month recovery!

Really sorry to hear you are injured @jess9395. I can only imagine how much that sucks for you.

Thanks! Trying hard not to feel sorry for myself. At least my upper body will keep in shape!

My 15 year old son says "hey you can do weighted pistol squats!"

Pretty sure I couldn't do those before the 20 lb cast [emoji23][emoji23]

There were a couple men I found attractive but I wouldn't want my body to look like any of the women. They had male physiques, narrow hips, broad shoulders, very little body fat, no breasts, etc.

That was a cool article. But that one rhythmic gymnast looked like rolled her toes under and then stood in them. Poor gal

I used to powerlift so I know that genetically weightlifting is my body type I used to look similar to the gal in the pictures who weighs 297. My weight was 293. I got so unhealthy though that I had to do something about the weight.
