You would only be able to put on the weight in lean muscle mass since the players do so much cardio, it would make it terribly hard to put on size, since muscle takes constant training and dieting to achieve. I don't think the player would do too much weight training in the on season so they don't get muscle fatigue.

You have never done exercise before have ya? All those people that looks strong don't do cardio workout at all.

They are either douches or people who actually know what the fck they are talking about. Like the scientists who have studied this subject.
Is there some sort of condition on Inside Hoops where people want to show their ignorance, but even beyond that, be arrogant about their ignorance?

You do know that your post implied that you thought body fat levels have nothing to do with genes? Maybe you didn't intend it, but it certainly came off that way.

Body types and genetics influence your appeareance, but that doesn't mean you can't change. A good diet, whether it's built to gain or lose weight, can go a long way.

Re: Why are some NBA players so skinny?
Because, it's not about how much you weigh. It's about your skills. I'm a freshman in high school, and I am nearly 6 feet tall but I weigh around...95-98 pounds. I average around 17 5 and 5. Scottie is a perfect example of a tall but skinny guy who is still strong somehow. It's about the effort that you put in. Just my opinion though.

Re: Why are some NBA players so skinny?
As a thin guy, I normally gain weight when I play basketball. Not much fat to lose, but plenty of muscles getting worked out. Legs, shoulder, back, usually, usually gain like 4 pounds.

Re: Why are some NBA players so skinny?
the most important part of gaining/losing weight is the diet. if you can control your calories you basically control your gains/losses.
the people saying it's impossible to gain muscle are retarded.
all it takes is enough protein, eating 4-6 times a day, and eating enough calories to maintain or gain weight. easy.
