185-190

"I do not think that there is any other quality so essential to success of any kind as the quality of perseverance. It overcomes almost everything, even nature."
 

Just be sure to have girth.

When a plumber from Hoboken tells you he has a good feeling about a reverse iron condor spread on the Japanese Yen, you really have no choice. If you don’t do it to him, somebody else surely will. -Eddie B.
 

Muscle weighs more than fat. It all depends on build.

185 with like 14% bodyfat, feasible naturally

^Reggie Bush is 5'11" and like 10% bodyfat, most people are not walking around with this little fat, if he was 13-15% he would be nearing 220 lbs. at 5'11" in order to maintain that much muscle density

LOL! 14% is really fat. You can't have a 6 pack at 14%.

 

The difference b/w the body fat of Joe Schmoe and Reggie Bush is not 3%.

Anyways, my point is not that 200 pounds is an unhealthy weight for a six foot guy, but unless OP is a high performing athlete that weight is going to look on the chunkier side of athletic.

 

Who the fuck cares, if you can't talk to women it doesn't make a damn bit of difference.

It's not about weight but about body fat and waist to shoulder ratio. Ideally you want to aim for a shoulder to waist ratio of 1.618:1. This means that if you had a 30 inch waist, you'd need shoulder circumference of 48.5 inches which requires sometime spent in the gym.
