This chart will give you a general guideline to go by. First, calculate your "weight per inch" by taking your weight in pounds, and divide that by your height, in inches. Find the closest match on the chart, and see if you measure up. Of course, as a bodybuilder, your waist can never be too small, and your calves can never be too big. Don't take this too seriously.
