WHY THE FUCK DON'T MARATHONS TAKE INTO ACCOUNT MY WEIGHT?! It's TOTALLY unfair to let them be dominated by skinny little guys?

Meh, some people don't have the frame to add a lot of weight, no matter the height. No matter what, though, you can't change height... so who cares. Do the best you can with what you have, continue to improve, and it's all good

I am going to move up a weight class. But i don't wanna get too big.
Don't worry about getting too big. You could eat right and train hard for 10 years and still not be anything but decent sized.

I dunno about you but last time I checked most of the WSM competitors are very tall. Like over 6' 2".

Last time I checked, all of the short guys get owned in those events.

As far as powerlifting goes, the guys that win are the guys that are HUGE for their heights. Thats why you don't win. You aren't huge.

There are plenty of examples of people who are not huge, who have put up some serious numbers.

Obviously a guy who is 5'6" and 170lbs should be stronger than a 6'0" tall dude. Assuming they both had the same bodyfat. A shorter dude doesn't have to push up his lifts as much and can pack on more muscle to his frame.

P4P lists are basically dominated by short guys.

Im a bit over 6'0" tall.
That's not true at all man, the guy who works the hardest will be the strongest. Im 6'5 265, I was 295 back when I was still playing football/working out like a mad man(19 years old, 21 now). I could put up 605 on squat, no wraps, no crazy ass gear. Height doesn't mean shit, work ethic dude.
