look around 6:28 , Shawn wears the same "Stallone" boots making him 2 inches taller than Ric Flair wich he never ever was!!
Notice how long his legs look and how high his knees are.

He's definitely wearing chunky shoes there for sure. However there's still no way Shawn is under 5'11"-5'11.25" IMO regardless.

He's 1" taller than Kurt Angle, who may have been wearing slightly chunkier wrestling boots than Shawn in their matches, plus he's only 3" shorter than Triple H who's a solid 6'2".
Clay says on 7/Mar/10
Shawn's a solid 5'11'' these days, with minimal height loss IMO.

He was never 6'1". He used to be 5'11". Today he is less.

Less than 5'11"? Well since he's clearly taller than legit 5'10" Kurt Angle & Ric Flair I highly doubt that. Here he is with RVD in 2003: Click Here

He may have lost 0.5" but no more than that. No way under 5'11"-5'11.25" today IMO.

Shawn Michaels looked taller and buffer back in the bret hart era 1995 he was 6-1 235 now he look more like 5-11 200 pounds

'Taker had his head down also.

on Phenomforever.com there is a clear shot with 'Takers head bent and Michaels is around is eyebrow.
MLF says on 27/Feb/10
Michaels is 5'11.5" barefoot.

He had 1.5" boots on facing the Undertaker making himself 6'1" and 'Taker had 6.5" at times making him 6'7.5" in nearly flat shoes.
Anonymous says on 25/Feb/10
if steve jordan was 6'3" then that makes heenig a flat 6'1", scott hall 6'4" and hbk 5'11.5".

shawn looks more like a weak 5'11" these days and a strong 5'11' or 5'11.5" peak
Vegas says on 24/Feb/10
michaels was not 6'1 in 1995, video from 1994 of michaels and ~6'1-6'1.5 curt hennig, blows a big hole in the claims that michaels wore huge lifts around this time Click Here now before someone comes on here and claims perfect was taller than the figure i gave him better consider these videos first, hennig side by side barefoot with scott hall Click Here side by side with 6'3 nfl listed steve jordan Click Here

If he's lost 2" (which I don't see how is possible!) then so has Triple H because Shawn is the same amount shorter than Triple H now as he was pre-back surgery. There is very minimal height loss for Shawn, he's just a lot thinner.

Shawn Michaels is 5'11-6'0. He is no less! Austin is 6'0.5! McMahon is 6'0.5-6'1! Do not forget that Austin & Michaels have both sustained serious injuries that have caused them to lose some height.

It's kind of funny. Michaels wasn't that much smaller than HHH in the early days of DX (1997-1998), but when he came back in 2002, he looked tiny in comparison. Those growth hormones probably did wonders for Trips. lol

Michaels is probably like 5'10 now, but I think he was 6' back in the 90's. Shrinking happens. Just ask the Undertaker.

Bahah. Shrinking 2 inches by your mid 40's doesnt ''just happen''. He has probably lost half an inch at most. He has lost mass, but not much height.

Agreed. He looked a weak 6'0" at his peak, like 5'11.75" and looks a strong 5'11.25" (181 cm) today IMO. Not much height loss all, just looks about 20lbs thinner.

just finished watching shawn on baywatch back in the day, he looks massive on that and in some scenes he is barefoot
Clay says on 15/Feb/10
Not to mention Shawn was also on the juice hard in the mid to late 90's. He has lost 25-30 pounds of muscle mass since those days.
Vegas says on 15/Feb/10
shawn hasn't lost 2 inches or anything close, he is still a young guy, he looks the same height next to trips today as he did in 1997

I think Shawns a strong 5'10 today.
I was just watching a tag match with him and flair together from 92 and he has at least an inch on flair even back then... That would mean a 5'10.5 flair back in 92, I can live with that, ive met flair and i'd give him 5'9 today..
Joe says on 31/Jan/10
he only looks a lot smaller than triple h because of his build. triple h is huge and shawn is barely 200lbs. shawn is 5'11.
sk says on 31/Dec/09
shawn's not the same height as jericho LOL. He easily had one inch on him, but probably 1.5 inches at WM 19, and don't give me that bull**** that he's "lost height" since then. Wrestlemania 19 was in 2003 and he was 38 years old then. He's 44 now and he's the same height as he was then. If Jericho is 5'9.5, then Michaels is 5'11 tops. It's possible that he was 6'0 in his late 20's during his earlier days in WWE. And to Shawn who posted below, he looks puny next to HHH because HHH is 6'2 or slightly taller than that. Any 5'11 guy would look small next to HHH. These 5'10 claims for Michaels are ridiculous.
The Ben says on 21/Dec/09
shawn looked 5'11.5 on 1994.. He looks to have lost height since then..
Derek says on 20/Dec/09
Shawn was clearly taller than Kurt Angle.
Shawn says on 18/Dec/09
Shawn micheals at 5'11.5 is total crap. he is the same height as chris jericho who is 5'10 and kurt angle.... when was he ever 5'11 or 5'11.5? he looks pretty puny too nowadays in front of HHH. Rob.... you need to downgrade shawn's height and give the tall guys some respect!!
ELi says on 10/Dec/09
Ive stood next to lawler in 2007 and got a picturem Lawler is no more than 5'11, maybe 5'10.5. Im 6'1, wearing 1.5 boots, my eyes were 2 inches above his eyes. I met Shawn too, their probably the same height, but no way is shawn above 6'1, thats for sure.
Clay says on 4/Dec/09
I want to see them up close before its too late. I have seen Big Show from the nose bleeds, but that was at Safco field for wrestlemania so I couldn't really get a feel for his size. I saw Nathan Jones and all the other big guys from that time in 2003, but I want to see Khali or Big Show up close.
hs2009 says on 4/Dec/09
Clay says on 4/Dec/09
Exactly HS. A big guy in reality, a small guy for pro wrestling. Did you see Khali or Big Show at that event?

Not at that specific event, but I saw them wrestle each other at a house show last year. The gasp of the crowd when they faced off against each other was hilarious, they are both just out of this world big! I couldn't believe the size of the Big Shows legs and chest and Khali had gigantic arms and heaps of muscle mass. The match was terrible, but it was an awesome sight anyway!

No way does HBK take steroids. It would be totally pointless for him at this stage of his career.

Im sure he did in the mid 90's when he was 220-225ish with huge arms and veins. I dont think he has touched a 'roid in 10 years though.

Yeah that's what I meant, he doesn't take them today for sure. Shawn is legit 5'11"-5'11.5" and weighs about 195lbs so is a big man for sure, but he's bound to look small next to guys like John Cena and Triple H.

I went to a WWE house show recently, Shawn was there and he is a big dude when you see him in person! I was surprised to be honest, because he looks pretty skinny these days on TV when you compare to the 1990's and even for the first couple of years after he came back in 2002.
Clay says on 18/Nov/09
I agree on 195 for today. A big man, but small for WWE.
Danimal says on 14/Nov/09
Shawn was a 5'11" guy who was minimum 225 pounds back in the day. Today he is a 190-195 pound guy at most.
Clay says on 14/Nov/09
You need to remember that these guys have HUGE legs and lower backs. Shawn is no way under 195 right now. He's taller and a biger framed man than I am, and Im a toned 185-186.

your basing Michaels current height on Pre Back Surgery footage over 15 years ago?

If you watch Summerslam 1994, you'll notice that Shawn has about an inch or so on 5'10 Walter Payton. I'd say he's at least 5'11

JMan, Shawn said he´s 6foot and 200 lbs not long ago, so why should he be havier??? BTW He´s maybe 6 foot in shoes but not legit
JMan says on 4/Aug/09
I think Shawn is a legit 6ft. As for his weight I don't buy him being under 200 pounds- he's solid muscle and muscle weighs more than fat. I think he's still a legit 215-220
HBK722 says on 5/Jul/09
i have read shawn's book. he said back before the back surgery he was 6ft 1in.but i'm guessing with shoes without i would say 5ft 11in or 6ft
AKK says on 27/Jun/09
Well, we could estimate them with Mysterio perhaps? He's supposed to be the smallest non-Little Person wrestler around(who's famous outside of SA anyways), and he usually bounces off the second ropes(Tajiri used to do the same sometimes).
Frank says on 2/Jun/09
Well it isnt a bad idea with the Ring, but there are different Rings, i had my first Lesson 2 Weeks ago, i am 182, with the shoes probably 183, and the Topes looked to me like 5'0(150)

The Ben says on 21/May/09
He got pretty heavy, maybe even fat in 1993..
Im just over 6ft. i met HBK in 1994 and he was wearing cowboy boots and i was taller then him.. I'd say he is 5,11 max.
I weigh from 190 to 200 lbs and i'm an inch shorter then shawn... I honestly cant see him being lighter then me, i dont have a big frame and my bodyfat is 15% and shawn looks bigger then me.. I think he could be slightly over 200 lbs..
I know he doesnt have huge legs but they arent that small, the guys who know at my gym who are his height and 200ish all have skinny legs and big upper body's..
shawns a natural guy as well.. i think they often weigh more then you think.. i know steroid guys who look huge and weigh under 200 lbs.
I was suprised when i met him at how big muscle wise he was. Ive met a lot of wrestlers and shawn wasnt one who was smaller then you would think.
I think he's a guy who has quite a big frame naturaly but does alot of cardio and eats clean to keep his weight down so his knees and back dont suffer..
There are plenty of guys who are his size who are at their natural biggest..
...ive got my photo on the ultimate warrior page.. 6.05 and 185-190 lbs, I look way skinny, i cant see shawn being smaller then me... I know i could be wrong...hopefully somebody will meet him and get a picture on here again soon.
Alex says on 19/May/09
HBK at his heaviest looked in the 225-230lb range. As years went on he slowly lost weight. Today 190lbs may be pushing it a bit for him at 5'11. Hes not a small man though. I also dont see him as big as me and I am an inch or so taller.
Red says on 17/May/09
The Ben, I agree with your peak weight for Shawn, but hes under 200lbs today, his arms are still good, but his upperbody is quite tiny
Danimal says on 8/May/09
Shawn's not above 190-195 today at MAX 5'11". Peak he floated between 225-240 pounds.
The Ben says on 8/May/09
I cant see shawn at less then 200lbs.. He's not that small..I would maybe think 205-210 today with a peak of 225-230..

hs2009 nice find. and once again is dibiase struggling with 6ft... actually he isnt even a full 6'0 today. and some believe he was 6'3-6'4? (!) but jannetty was short! LOL didnt know he was that short

Thanks Ola. Jannetty actually claims 5'11" on MySpace, even though he was always 3" shorter than Shawn.

HHH at 6'2 and HBK at 5'11 seems right. Looks 3 inches or so between the 2 today.

looking at old pictures HBK really did look only about 182cm or 5ft11-6ft in boots.
hs2009 says on 26/Mar/09
He had the same height advantage over Marty Jannetty in 2005 as he did in the 1980's & 1990's so I doubt he's lost more than 0.5".
MK says on 24/Mar/09
André says on 24/Mar/09
Shawn was 6 foot 1 clearly at his peak but i belive that with his back injury and knee he is 6 foot now.

Hardly if he was BILLED 6'1'' 15 years ago, 6'0'' was his max peak, could be as low as 5'10.5'' nawadays imo.

Vegas, not heels - HBK had inside lift or special-boots during that time, look how big his boots are in your second pic, you could hide much in them

you are speculating now, you can hide much in any boots :) there isn't anything special about those boots

remember at that time this was a hbk who was pulling off moves never before seen in wwf at that point, most consisting of going over the top rope, in matches never before seen in wwf (ladder), i have a hard time believing he was wearing lifts too in those matches, if he was then i take my hat off to him even more

HBK had those moon boots on in that era. You could have fit an aquarium with fish in his boots at the time. Both Shawn and Bret were in that 5'11" range.
Derek says on 3/Mar/09
HBK was around an inch taller than Bret. Nowadays, they're probably almost the same because of Shawn's major back injury.
TELLEM says on 3/Mar/09
he looks an inch taller in that vid vegas posted, and certainly looked it in the pic of them together in bret's book. 6'0 peak for shawn, 5'11 today.

TELLEM, I'm starting to think he was 6'0" peak also. There's a pic of Shawn with Bret Hart backstage at Survivor Series in the early 1990's & he has 1" on him there too.

He was only 1" shorter than SCSA as well. I'd say he was 6'0" peak & 5'11.25"-5'11.5" today.
TELLEM says on 2/Mar/09
after seeing some of shawn's matches i think he was 6'0 peak...he had 2 inches on jeff jarrett whos 5'10, he was an inch taller than bret hart, and oddly enough in his rocker days had an inch on arn anderson.

Clay, yea those MMA guys will do best in a street fight. Boxers are good but I think MMA fighters are overall better. Boxers are at a disadvantage when it comes to wrestling type stuff but MMA are great with that too.
Clay says on 24/Feb/09
LoL well I wouldn't want to mess with 5'6-5'7 dudes who are built like tanks either. But the guys you really want nothing to do with are MMA experts.
Alex says on 23/Feb/09
Being short doesn't mean crap really. Tazz wasn't short and small. He was short but had a big build and was strong. Also he looked to know how to really fight. I wouldn't wanna mess with him.

Even short and lean you can kick ass. Look at some of those UFC lightweights.
TELLEM says on 23/Feb/09
i agree with hs2009, at his time in ecw i wouldn't want to mess with the man either. the man lifted 6'1-6'2 bam bam bigelow dead weight over his head in a match they had.
hs2009 says on 23/Feb/09
Lol Clay, I still wouldn't have messed with him though. Shortie or not, I bet he was pretty intimidating to stand next to being as built as he was.
Clay says on 22/Feb/09
Yeah, 5'6-5'7 for Tazz. Short bugger.
Danimal says on 21/Feb/09
Alex says on 20/Feb/09
I've heard Jerry Lawler is really 5'10 and people who have met him said he looked 5'10ish. I can believe that. 5'10-5'10 1/2.

Tazz looked a solid 240-250lbs in his wrestling days. He may have gotten bigger since then. I'd have to see him in wrestling gear to really tell.

Tazz claimed to be a legit 260 pounds when Bam Bam Bigelow slammed him through the ring in the ORIGINAL ECW in the 1990's.
hs2009 says on 21/Feb/09
Alex, I agree Lawler does look 5'10". I remember on RAW one time when ECW were 'invading' back in mid-1990's. Lawler was making fun of how short Tazz & the rest of the ECW crew are. Heyman rebutted with something like: "this is coming from a guy who's 5 foot 10 & dominated Mid-South for over 20 years?"

Lawler didn't really say much back, just agreed with Heyman even though I think he was billed at 6'0" at the time. So 5'10" probably is his legit height.

As for Tazz, he looks 5'6" with MVP. He also looked around the same height as Eddie Guerrero in ECW back in the early 1990's, so is in that 5'6"-5'7" range. Build like a wall though, definite 250lbs+ at his biggest in the late 1990's.
Alex says on 20/Feb/09
I've heard Jerry Lawler is really 5'10 and people who have met him said he looked 5'10ish. I can believe that. 5'10-5'10 1/2.

Tazz looked a solid 240-250lbs in his wrestling days. He may have gotten bigger since then. I'd have to see him in wrestling gear to really tell.
Bobby says on 20/Feb/09
Shawns had allot of back and knee problems...I'd say at some point he was a legit 6 foot.
Vegas says on 18/Feb/09

i would agree with danimal around 5'6 but he is north of 260lb today it seems :)
TELLEM says on 17/Feb/09
i agree alex, 5'7 is possible for tazz. he looked it at times next to certain wrestlers.
Alex says on 16/Feb/09
Tazz claimed 5'8 a couple times. I'd give him 5'7 max but he did look around his billed weight though. He was like a tank. Raven had a good couples inches on him and Raven is 5'10-5'11.
Clay says on 16/Feb/09
The King is 5'11.
TELLEM says on 14/Feb/09
the funny thing is tazz said in a shoot interview that he was a quarter of an inch from 5'9 and most of the time he'd claim 5'8, but next to 5'10 jerry lawler, he looked 5'6ish indeed.
Danimal says on 13/Feb/09
Shock of Electric says on 12/Feb/09
Tazz is definitely 5'6.5". I met him in the late 90s and he was a bit shorter than I am, which is 5'8" on the dot.

I say Tazz is around 5'6" and change and not more. He was a legit 260 pounds at one point though.

I wouldn't go over 6'3 for Batista.

I almost had the chance to see him up close standing. When I met him he was sitting but if I waited before I got on the long line I could have saw him walk to the autograph table and likely come right across him.
Clay says on 2/Feb/09
Im back on the Batista is lsightly over 6'3'' bandwagon.
Red says on 2/Feb/09
Vegas Batista never stands really straight as Shawn does in your vid and is always about 3.5" taller, he would be 4 inches taller with perfect posture.

I think HBK is another guy that Rob should have both peak and current heights for. I am not even sure if HBK was ever 6'0 even at his peak because he was an inch shorter than Austin.

red; can you post evidence of "his BIG BOOTS" from the past that he doesn't wear today
Red says on 1/Feb/09
Anonymous and you can clearly see his footwear in the pics above?!
Shawn looks shorter today because he doesn´t wear his BIG BOOTS. He was never a legit 6 footer, maybe he´s still 5´11"today and has had no heightloss
Red says on 30/Jan/09
HBK was not a legit 6footer, 5´11.5"max peak and 5´10.5-5´11"today. If he appears taller it´s because of his footwear

Flair's height loss is completely natural with him being in his 60's.

Most men lose 1.25"-1.5" NATURALLY by the time they hit 60. I know my father and my step father have. Now take into account that Flair actively wrestled from 1972 to 2008. That's 36 years of smashing his body night in and night out and he was a VERY physical wrestler. Hogan didn't even wrestle nearly as physical as Flair and he had lost close to 3" by around 50 years old. I don't see Flair at over 5'10" today. He was at least 5'11" in his younger days.


Good call danimal, flair is 5,10 Ill send my photo of me and him in.

hs2009 says on 22/Jan/09
Yeah, Flair will be 60 next month & after 35 years of wrestling plus a broken back around 1" height loss is to be expected.
Clay says on 21/Jan/09
Flair's height loss is completely natural with him being in his 60's.
hs2009 says on 20/Jan/09
Danimal, I agree about Flair. He's definitey lost height over the past few years.

Shawn has about 1" on him, so Shawn at 5'11"-5'11.25" & Flair around 5'10" seems fair.
Tim says on 19/Jan/09
Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels are the same height- 5 ft 10.5 in ....They look short next to the bigger and taller wrestlers.
Alex says on 19/Jan/09
Flair looked a fraction taller than Angle. HBK is still a bit taller than Flair too and he has an inch on Angle as well.
Alex says on 19/Jan/09
Clay, I agree. HBK isn't a small man. 5'11 185-190lbs built isn't small. Of course he's not as built as he once was but he's not very lean. Only looks it next to bigger or huge guys. Put him next to the average guy on the street he'd be big and would hold his own with the average guy who works out.
Danimal says on 18/Jan/09
Flair isn't over 5'10" today at 60 years old.
hs2009 says on 18/Jan/09
No way is Michaels under 5'11" though, he has an inch on Ric Flair.
Clay says on 17/Jan/09
Its funny how Michaels looks like a smurf nowadays next to likes of Batista, HHH - but really he's still a good sized man at 5'10.5-5'11 and 185-190.
hs2009 says on 17/Jan/09
Jannetty has never been a really big guy, excellent wrestler in his day though. He claims 5'11" but is about 2.5"-3" shorter than Shawn, so around 5'9" makes sense.
Hugh says on 17/Jan/09
My brother met HBK at a WWF houseshow in Denver in 2001. He said Shawn was about 182cm in his boots. So that would make him 5ft10.5 barefoot.
The Ben says on 16/Jan/09
i met jannety last year and he looked around 5'9, not a big guy at all. 190lbs tops.

i think he was 5'11.5 peak and now 5'11 flat
hs2009 says on 10/Jan/09
He had the same amount of height on Marty Jannety in 2005 than he did in the 1980's though, so I don't think he's lost more than 0.5".
Alex says on 9/Jan/09
HBK looks in the 5'10.5-5'11 range nowadays. Closer to 6'0 in his younger days I'd say or may have been 6'0 to be honest. Looks to have lost an inch of height and like 30-40lbs of weight.

I had my arms measured flexed pumped after a workout a few days ago and it was just under 17 inches which I was a bit suprised at so I'd be more 16 1/2 then flexed without a pump which is good.

My friend went from 210 to 290lbs in 7-8 months down to 200lbs 9 months later then down to 185 then flucuated in the 200-225lb range then up to 250lbs and back down to 205-210lbs.
Ben says on 29/Dec/08
When your taking creatine a huge part is played by what you take it with, its not easily absorbed, its best taken with a fruit juice, the best being warm grapefruit juice or cranberry juice. Caffine pretty much kills creatine and any milk product will pretty mcuh cancel out the effects.
Drinks Like Xplode are usually laced iwth sugar and cafine and alot of dietry suppliments arent regulated properly because they arent classes as a food they dont undergo the same testing so can put anything in them.
Theres one out at the moment called h-roid or t-roid that's supposed to be natural and you can buy online cheap. I took it for 1month and put on 10kg (22lbs)
Ive been told since its basically an oral steroid.

Danimal, congrats because I see you're trying to change up your body again. your weight seems to be like a roller coaster, up and down, up and down.

Yeah, it is. I've been as low as 155 pounds at my height and as high as 220 pounds. I am not so concerned with muscle today as I was in the my late teens and 20's. I'm 31 now and I'm more concerned with feeling and looking healthy. I want to have the lean look. I'm 185 now. I think I would like to drop another 10 pounds and go from there.

NO Xplode is more than just creatine with flavor, it really does give you all kinds of energy before your workout and mental focus. Im going to NO Xplode withdrawal right now. Just not the same without it.
hs2008 says on 26/Dec/08
35lbs is really impressive Danimal! Well done!

Do you have target weight you want to get to?
Danimal says on 24/Dec/08
Alex says on 24/Dec/08
Best is to go on regular white creatine, its cheaper and does work. You can spend more money on stuff like Cell Tech, Cell Mass, NOXplode but you're just paying more money on something that would do the same as regular creatine. But those have flavors though.

I was cycling creatine from 1997-2002 and while it does give you more strength in the gym and your muscles recover a lot quicker, there are side effects. Firstly, you get BLOATED. Sure, you gain weight, because you are lifting heavier and gaining more muscle, but there is a ton of water retention when ON. NOW, when you get off your cycle, you immediately lose strength and size, both as a result of not being able to lift as heavy and because you are losing a lot of that water retention. It's also not really good on the kidney LONG-TERM. If you do cycle it, be sure to drink a ton of water.

BTW Alex, I'm down to 185 bro! I have officially dropped 35 pounds so far.

Alex says on 20/Dec/08
Clay, yea I am big just from eating food and taking protien powders and bars. If I got on creatine I'd get even bigger. Well 4 years ago I got on NOX2 which is kinda like a pill forn of creatine and I gained 20lbs in 1.5 months but also was eating more calories and wasn't doing any cardio but I did gain at least 10lbs once I got on the pill.
Clay says on 19/Dec/08
Monohydrate creatine in fine if its cycled. Take 2 or 3 months in between when you take it, and your laughin. Its all water weight, but you cant bulk up and reach your goals without weight. Protein powders are like food basically, one or two shakes per day is actually very healthy. Too many supplements like N.O., Cell mass etc. you're getting into dangerous territory. Alex, you havent used many creatine supplements? You could be an animal if you took them, lol.
Alex says on 18/Dec/08
Clay, I just eat food and take protein. I am not on any other supplements though I am going to get on creatine soon. Too many supplements isn't good for your body. One time I weighed 12lbs heavier at night after a day of meals and in cloths and shoes.
Clay says on 17/Dec/08
Alex - Yeah, out of bed in boxers I think im more like 183-184, so that is my true body weight. After a day of meals and in clothes/shoes though im more like 187-188 when I weigh in.
Clay says on 17/Dec/08
Just bought 2 tubs of mega milk protein (32 grams of protein, 350 calories per serving) and a jar of monohydrate creatine - my weight should soar to above 190 soon.
Alex says on 16/Dec/08
Hugh, in the morning 200-202lbs but full cloths I can get up to 210lbs or damn near it. Saying that because some people tend to weigh themselves with shoes, jeans, long sleeves on and even sometimes with sweatshirts or jackets which I dont see the point of. True weight is first thing in the morning in boxers or something like that before eating or drinking anything.
Hugh says on 15/Dec/08
Alex how much do you weight now?
Alex says on 13/Dec/08
When I bench I will bring it just about touching my chest, sometimes just above my chest but barely. If you're going to bounce it make it not bounce hard though. I am still trying to get 315lbs one rep max. Almost there, last I tried it I got it half way but my one rep max is 300-305lbs now.I got it back up to what it was last winter because I hurt my shoulder a bit last winter and it went down a little so its good I got it back up.
Clay says on 10/Dec/08
Morg is either a troll or a jerk, either one. Theres always a bad apple in the bunch. Yeah, I meant flat bench. What type of form do you assume though? When you bench do you bring the bar all the way down to your chest? Like I said I do when im benching lighter weight, but I'll bounce it off my chest so my form isnt very good. I have all kinds of strength on the peck deck for whatever reason though - 250 ibs for 10-12 reps perfect posture, but my strength is lacking in other areas. And yeah, some guys can shrug 4+ plates but those are few and far between for me to see unless I go to a larger gym, not the local rec centre.
Alex says on 9/Dec/08
Clay, it depends whether you're talking about flat, incline or decline but I assume flat bench you mean. Also if I do flat bench first I can do more than if I did it after other exercises. If I do it first I can get 225lbs for 11-12 reps. Got 14 reps a few weeks ago but that was a good day though. As the sets go on I'll burn out more so on my 2nd set I'll only be able to get 225 8 reps max.
Clay says on 9/Dec/08
Alex what about your bench, and what type of form do you use? I can bench about 180-190 right down to the chest for reps, but thats works basically your whole upper body I only want to bench when Im just working the chest. I can bench 225-250 ''cheating'' not going all the way to the chest for about 5 reps.
Alex says on 8/Dec/08
Clay, thanx but really thats not that good I dont think. Sure its good but I've seen some guys do 4 or more plates on shrugs. You think this Morg guy is a troll too?
Alex says on 8/Dec/08
Morg, at least I post pictures to prove who I am. Most on here dont even post pics of themselves. And that last picture I posted just to show how much leaner I was when I was in my teens. Does it bother you that I post pictures? Or are you just jealous or a troll on here? I never said I was a wrestler or anything so you need to stop putting words in my mouth.
Clay says on 8/Dec/08
Damn, three plates shrugged for about 8 reps is pretty good man, you're one strong dude.
M.o.r.g says on 6/Dec/08
Alex says on 2/Dec/08
Take a look at this picture of me when I was 18 in 2002. I was 170-175lbs in this picture. I know I may look less but due to that I wasn't muscular but I wasn't very skinny either.

WHO ARE U!!? u go around making out youre some huge guy like a wrestler or schwarzenegger.you're just not!.aarghh does my head in.
Alex says on 5/Dec/08
Clay, that was I was saying. HBK is a very small guy but put him near these bigger guys in WWE and even when he was near Angle he didn't even look that big, but put him near an average joe on the street who doesn't work out then hes bigger. Even put him near an average person who works out he wont look small.
Alex says on 5/Dec/08
Clay, I do 6-8 sets of shrugs once a week when I do shoulders. I prefer barbell but dumbell is good too. My gym only goes up to 85lb dumbells which I could heavier on when it comes to shrugs if I wanted. On barbell I can do 315lbs for like 8 reps.
Clay says on 4/Dec/08
Yeah, he is dwarfed by HHH these days, although I think HHH may be tippin the scales at more 260-265 right now he just looks huge again. Still though he's a 5'11'' guy with good size you just cant see it when he's standing next to his enormous peers. At least 185-190 today for Shawn id say.

Barebell shrugs are the best for traps, I just never have the drive to do more than one set. I can shrug two plates, so 225 pounds - 6 times but after that im thinkin ''this is no fun'' and just go back to the dumbells, lol.
Derek says on 3/Dec/08
Shawn sure has lost a lot of muscle mass. He has always denied using steroids, but who knows? There was a huge difference just between 1992 and 1997, and even more of a difference between 1997 and today.
Alex says on 3/Dec/08
Clay, I prefer barbell shrugs. My traps and neck are good, I just gotta work on my shoulder width a bit more.

HBK may very well be 190lbs. Its just that fact he's 190lbs and not very muscular. Like Danimal said, he lost a lot of muscle mass too. Also he may look less than he is next to bigger guys in WWE.
Danimal says on 2/Dec/08
In the late 80's I believe he was in his 230's, slowly reducing his weight to about 225 by the 1990's and then losing even more going down to about 210. Today I say he is probably 190-195 pounds at 5'11".
Clay says on 2/Dec/08
Al what are some exercises you use to work your traps? Do you do only barebell shrugs and dumbell shrugs or what else? I have a hard time believing im the same wieght as Michaels and about 2 inches shorter though. He's gotta still be 190 today.
Alex says on 2/Dec/08

Alex says on 2/Dec/08
Danimal, what would you say HBK was at his peak, his mid career and then today? I'd say he looked as much as 220-225lbs at his biggest. In the middle of his career before 1999-2000 I'd say he was 200-210lbs. Today dare I say it but maybe as low as 180-185lbs. This is on a 5'11 frame.
Danimal says on 1/Dec/08
HBK appears to have lost about 40 pounds since his peak and it looks to be ALL muscle.
Alex says on 30/Nov/08
Derek, bigger than HBK today yea but at his peak he was bigger than I am though.
Alex says on 30/Nov/08
Derek, yea 200-205 I weigh.

I am not sure how tall the doorway is. I gotta measure but I am quit a bit in front of the doorway so it can make me appear closer in height to it than I really am.
Leo says on 29/Nov/08
