i remember being obsessed with height when i was in highschool because i was insecure back then.

but height varies depending on the race though doesn't it?

i mean american whites, blacks, asians, latinos.. if you divide it into those categories i remember my research providing different results.

american caucasian males are more like 5'10.5 in height
african americans are like 5'10
asian americanss were 5'8.5
latino....americans were like 5'7

of course i dont keep a folder of my research in a folder but i guess dividing american men up into those 4 racial categories can equal to the average height being just a bit over 5'9.


The average height of African Americans is shorter than that of caucasian Americans? That can't be right.

Average is actually quite abysmal ... I'm taller, skinnier, faster, more durable and ... longer ^^
Poor average humans. They're the laughing stock of society :D

BTW, 1 mile is like 1,6 kms, right ? Coz when I ran at high school, I used to do 5 kms in 22:35 minutes. Even with that pace, a mile would be something like just under 8 minutes. And I wasn't even close to the faster guys back then.

Lol @ the article being about the average man and using some ripped, in great shape guy as their poster child.

Also for those getting the 12:00 mile thing; its a typo, the page from the magazine says 12, but the article clearly says its 12:45 for the mile and a half and 8:34 for the one mile.

And they're blatantly lying, in the picture "12:17 is the average time to run a mile", on the site "Time it takes the average guy to run a mile: 8 minutes, 34 seconds"


Lying? More likely a typo.

Moody - You're 6'3", no way your going to be anywhere near the average weight, you are 6 inches taller than the average person which obviously makes you weight significantly more. As someone else said looking at you body fat gives you a much better idea of how you stack up.

Most people can't do a single pull up which hurts the avg by a lot.

Unless you practiced it, using your back muscle isnt natural to most I guess.

Sweet I'm up to 22 pull ups. Recently I started doing them while wearing a 20 pound back pack and I can still do 10 with it on.

You must know a lot of people with a shitload of upper body strength. I could do 10-15 when I was doing sports, but I probably could barely do 5 now... and I still work out 3-4x a week.

Last year, after basketball season was over, I had a heart rate of 36. I went to the chiropractor to get my back checked out, and the nurse told me my pulse and asked if I was even alive.

Well, now I feel short at 5'7''....
But fitness wise, I'm happy to see that I'm surpassing the average in every other aspect.

I did twice as much pull up than what I do now when I was a kid and scrawny (30 then 10-15 now). And that's typical. Kids will find it easier to do. So it varies depending on individual.

If your seriously 5.5 you should be able to bust out pullups better then most people. Think about it: Shorter arms=less distance to pull yourself up.

But yes, 1 pullup is an absolute joke for anyone...
