Yeah Dayne, I get the impression you're closing in on 6ft. Like 5'8-5'10.

Well, I'm not currently ripped, but yes, kind of. Around when I was 17, I was about 5'6, 165 ibs of mostly muscle (had a flat stomach then). Nowadays, since I really got into drawing, I got a bit of a muffin top going on, and despite my issues with my arms, I still have rather sizable upper arms and broad shoulders/upper back. I was never "cut" or "tone", but I did have some decent muscle mass.

I had a time when I was 16 (before I started working) after I "dropped out" of High School that I had quite the gut. It would've turned into obesity if I didn't get a job when I did, though. On the bright side, you've hit the bottom, so you know how bad it can be, and know that it can only get better.

Also, to answer your latter questions, yes its worth it. Paraphrasing Dayne here, You either try and fail from trying, or don't try and fail from not trying. The effort will lead to experience, whether its a positive outcome or a negative one.
