I am in the same boat as Warrrreagl, I am a big person. I will always be a big person. When I was 18 I joined the Army at 180 lbs, I was 5 foot 7, and had a BMI of 29.9%, just under the max for females. Before I went to bootcamp they sent me to FTC(fat camp) basically, all you do all day there is work out. I was there for 3 weeks and I did not lose any weight. However my pushups, situps, and running greatly improved so they sent me on to bootcamp. When I graduated from boot I was bigger than ever. I had not lost a single pound, and the clothes I wore there would not fit. My jeans would not even go over my thighs. And I wasnt sitting around eating junk, yes it buffet style, but I had white rice and fish almost everynight.
Some people are naturally larger than others, we are not all petite 5 ft 2, and a 120 lbs. Why shouldnt there be different sized machines?
