I am 6' 5" and 200 lbs, which is certainly not huge for that height. I have only even moved up to 200 since I began my workout regimen, about a year and a half ago. Before that I was as low as 180 - a pencil in disguise, with such a rapid metabolism that I could eat a dozen doughnuts for lunch every day and not gain a pound. (Not that I did... that was just to illustrate the point. Eating well is just as important as the workout.) Looking back at some of the deco profiles I have done (and supposed mandatory deco time I have blown off) I am either very lucky, or have a greater leeway with what I can get away with due to my body type. My question to you: You have in the past made reference to genetic predisposition to getting whacked, and I wanted to know if that is entirely random, or correlates with thin vs. heavy-set guys. How does your personal tolerance to pushing the envelope compare with a thin guy like JJ, or has the physical conditioning brought you both to a more even level with respect to this? -Sean -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
