    That is a great result this early into pre-season. Come the season proper, he will lose some of that, its still a big increase and should hold him in good stead for next season (providing he does not lose any of his mobility), no doubt the club will be monitoring this.

      Is 5kg in a year really that big?

      (It was reported that he was at 92kg come the end of 2009)

        I guess I mean from when he first started. Having said that increasing your weight from 92kg to almost 98kg is a siginificant increase as it should enable him to physically compete in the ruck from time to time.
        Increasing from 80kgs to 90kgs is significant however he still was not able to physically match it against his opponents, he should be able to now.

          When he arrived at the club he was 77kg so 20 kg gain in 2 years is very impressive.

            5kg of fat is easy -- I can pile that on in a week with South-East Asian laksas or Harlem soul food.

            5kg of solid muscle, though, is pretty impressive, as you would be trying to lean up your skin folds (ie. lose fat) while piling on the mass.

            You wouldn't want to be bulking up too quick either, though, as your tendons and ligaments don't strengthen at the same rate as your muscles. Ayce would be at risk of soft tissue problems over the next two years if his increased bulk puts too much stress on his joints, especially if we're planning to play him in the physical bullpit that is the ruck regularly.

              Listening to Danny Green on SEN at lunch, he was saying - and insisted it was true - that following weigh ins, certain boxers can put on anywhere b/w 5-10 kgs in 24 hours!

                His rate of weight gain isn't extrordinary though given his age & height - I added 13kgs of lean body mass in 12 months to end of October, and I'm shorter and older than Ayce. He has metabolic advantages at ages 18/19.

                  They are pretty dehydrated going into weigh ins though aren't they?
                  Pre-comp pro bodybuilders take appetite suppresants to get that vascular; one girl I know dated a guy who put on 11kgs (claimed) in two days after a comp.

                    Yeah, it's all (well, mostly) water -- 5 kgs isn't unusual, although 11kgs is pretty extreme.

                      I'll let it be known that from my regular sightings of Ayce, there has been a gradual increase in size both height and weight. He has put some time in on core strength training as is visible when you see him with his shirt up/off (anyone need any washing done?). His upper body has only really started to get any mass of note since he lost his sling a few weeks ago.

                        He's noticeably bigger than when he first started for sure. Would be about Rougheads size at the moment.

                        Rougheads noticeably gotten thinner though.

                          Amazing that the two are now similar. Ayce by name, potentially ace by nature.

                            Last night at the Barwon Bulldogs he said he had hit the 100kg mark.

                              He has, hasn't he? Now I have to ask him now how much he's weighing.

                              Gee, the things I do for this forum. Always taking time off work to go down to training, having to sit there sipping on latte and nibbling on muffins or forced to eat a full cooked brekkiy whilst watching the team train until I can finally get a chance for a quick chat about whatever is the biggest unanswered questions on WOOF all the time. I do hope you are all grateful. Mutter.. mumble.. bloody government... expletive!.
