Does weight affect moves? - 05-28-2005, 09:52 AM

Out of curiosity, but can Fat people breakdance? lol.
I'm 14, 5'1", and currently at 150. I excercise almost everyday so I think im 'pretty' fit.

Hmmm...I wanna know this aswell...but I'm 5'11/6'0 depending on the scale...I think 5'11 is more accurate though. and Im around 210 or so, but then again I do track nad football so most of it is muscle.

To answer your question from my point of view...you have to be strong enough to support your body weight, and you must be able to gain and maintain your momentuem...

u probably could but it would be hard. as u have a lot of fat it would be harder to support urself. on the other hand i think it would look hilarious




Be on your best behavior boys, i will only be gone a minute...

6'4" and skinny as hell, bboy is only as hard as you want it to be.

Don't practice, means getting moves slow
Practicing 24/7 means ur a crazy bitch that'll get good fast if ur not acting like a retard




I'm 16
I'm 6'4"
I'm 170 Lbs.
I'm willing to try over and over again
I can't do Kip-Ups

^control panel, edit profile. It usually takes awhile to get the option tho.

Weight affects moves for the worse. It makes it harder to control your body. Working out every day, practicing, as well as stretching is what helps you out the most.

mmm...i'm not in physics and haven't had physical science since 7th grade, so someone correct me if i'm wrong.

mass = inertia. more mass = more inertia, which explains why it's harder for a train to come to a complete stop. some shit like that. but that got me thinking like...if you got the momentum to do some mills, you could just keep going with little energy if you had enough inertia. not like anyone would want to do like 300 mills, but i'm just thinking..
