Christ, my dad is the same way. Dude is 5'10" 200 lbs. His goal weight is 185 which would still put him in the overweight category. His logic is that he doesn't want to lose his strength. Meanwhile, my 130 lb ass can bench 220 and deadlift 315. I'm only 2 inches shorter than him and 70 lbs lighter and I still can out lift him. But he's totally mostly muscle. /s
