    6'9", 196 doesn't seem reasonable to me, especially if we're talking about having any muscle above baseline.

    I found his formula surprising because it works for so many people, but 6'9" is well above the 95th percentile of 6'2" so very few people are in that boat. 6'2" which is the 95th percentile works out to 168lbs, which according to this article is in the average range for medium frame male, very top end for small frame, and 4lb under the low end of large frame - pretty good for a 95th percentile outlier height.

    I happen to be 6'2" and currently have about 190lbs of lean body mass. At 168 lbs I would be wasting away.

    Your question is like asking "Why get a job, when your employer only supplies yellow post-it notes?"

    I mean getting supplied with yellow post-it notes is nice and all, but it's not the reason most people decided to get a job.
