Has anyone ever considered petitioning to have our minimum weight raised to
say 850? It seems a large percentage of us are "normal sized" adults in the
190-210 weight range. It is nearly impossible for most of us to make
minimum weight of 800 pounds. In the interest of fair competition, it seems
that we should try to get the minimum set to a point that most of us can
make. I am by no means "over-weight" physically, but still come in a full
30 pounds over the minimum on a good day as I am 6'2" tall, 203 pounds. The
only way I could loose weight, would be too allow muscle mass to go away. I
don't consider this to be a healthy option. Yes I could spend tons of money
adding titanium bolts and carbon fiber, but it just seems like it would make
more since to have a little more breathing room in the weight
classification. I always seem to see really small jockey-like figures
standing on the podium, and it is already starting to frustrate me.

Chris H
