Im 5'7 and 160lbs. Is this normal for my height? Im not fat or anything. Been lifting and taking whey/creatine. Ive noticed my arms getting bigger though I have a lil bit of a gut that I need to work on.
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
Normal Weight?

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

It would be considered in the normal range for average people.
Still on the lightish end for a weightlifter though. You aren't skinny which is all that really matters, past that do what you want expect getting fat

No such thing as 'ideal' ... I like this web site in particular though to calculate an 'ideal' weight:amnbyrd said:

It really depends on how much muscle and body fat you have. I'm 5'6 and 147 and I still have a gut on me. One of the hand held body fat analyzer said I had 15%.

You and I are about the same height and weight, and I work out, too. There's nothing wrong with your weight. If you want to get bigger than go for it, though.amnbyrd said:
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

What's more important is your waist size. It's more important than just judging height and weight.
