I thought this was fun! Compare yourself to Olympic athletes:

(Team GB, and 10% of the others).
The smallest woman they have there is a 30 kg/ 66 lb gymnast! So tiny for an athlete! I came out closest to a male canoe sprinter and a female hammer thrower. I have a feeling that their body composition might be slightly different from mine, though!

I'm jealous!!! :sick:
I've not heard of her before but I just looked her up, her story is really inspiring http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/wales/18398584
I'm certain she has more muscle and less fat than me, and as it's my goal to lose fat and gain muscle (not so bothered whether my weight stays the same, goes up or goes down so long as I'm gaining muscle and losing fat), and as I'd like to take up martial arts again and I'm British, she can be my inspiration0 -
Michel Morganella (Swiss footballer) or Harry Martin (GB hockey player)0
-
Bronwen Knox, Australia, Water Polo.
Really strange cos I do actually look like her.
Think I'll have to take up Water Polo.0 -
Tiffany Foster, Canada, Jumping (team an individual) as in Equestrian
Could be worse but I'm not a horse girl!!0 -
I had the choice of height match with someone half my weight or a weight match who is a foot taller than me. Hmm, maybe Sumo wrestling should be an Olympic sport and then I would get a better match!0
