Deshaun Watson


Jun 4, 2014, 11:04 PM

Just wondering, I heard he was up to 210 pounds now. Is this true?

A kid is not like an adult. They can fill out rather quickly. I know I went from 150 to 185 in hs in a few months and it was all muscle. After that it was much harder to gain muscle then 20 years later its hard to not gain weigh aka fat.

You don't gain 35 lbs of muscle in a few months


Jun 5, 2014, 4:11 PM

without doing steroids or PEDs. It's actually a bit harder to bulk when you are younger, as your caloric needs are a bit higher. You did not gain 35 lbs of muscle in a few months, it's just not how that works. Most of it was water weight (from the swelling) and fat (from the caloric excess needed to build muscle quickly).

A typical mere mortal is going to add 1-2 lbs of muscle per month, or MAYBE 3lbs if you have superb genetics/training/diet. To gain muscle quickly, you do tend to eat a caloric excess, causing you to gain some cupcake weight in the process (not muscle). Fat content is reduced later with a cut (caloric deficit).

This is why elite athletes in many sports don't peak until their late 20's or early 30's. This is also why baseball players see their power peak in their late 20's.

We probably have to thank the "hungry huskies" and the benevolent NCAA for this.

Probably some cupcake weight in there

I'm not knocking DW, but as someone who loves barbell work (like they do), you're looking at 1-2 or MAYBE 3lbs of muscle a month if you have superb genetics/diet/training.

Some helpful info: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/ask-the-ripped-dude-how-much-muscle-can-i-put-on-naturally.html

He's younger and may have not emphasized strength training as much at HS, but 15 lbs of muscle in a few months would either mean he's never lifted before, he's got some cupcake weight, or he's juicing. Or perhaps even more likely, your source is just full of ####.

He's on my freshman schedule. I went from 205 to 250 my freshman year. No more high school sports, all you could eat dining hall and the short walk from the Tin Cans to downtown for copious amounts of beer.

friends travel northward in the weight department after arriving at Clemson.

The Dan's burgers and beer seemed to do it for most. I hardly ever had much money, plus I was a tightwad, so I lived on my good looks and friendliness...which might be why I actually LOST weight at Clemson....lol

I went from 185 to 220 my Sr year and 2 summer sessions.


Jun 5, 2014, 7:39 AM [ in reply to Re: Yes, just heard it from a source that works close to the... ]

24 hours in the spring and two 9 hour six week sessions. Nothing but study, eat and sleep. I has plenty of the first two and little of the latter.

Ain't no way.

If anybody actually believes that then that person should have its head examined & given very strong medication.

He's got that Novak Djokovic-esque frame; if he ever actually registers above 190 I'll be shocked & amazed.

I'm willing to bet $10 grand on this. That Deshaun Watson doesn't register more than 190 lbs. on any given actually working scale.

This thread is proof that people will believe anything simply because they want to.

Again, ain't no way Watson is more than 190.
