WBB Stats Database
I just had a really cool idea....
we (by we i mean someone with skillz) should make a database where everyone can add there name and all there vital stats such as:
hieght weight and bodyfat%
max bench dead squat
and measurements
and we can all compare ourselves and see if we are improving relative to others... or see how much work we have to do
any one got any comments or skillz to make this happen?

yup
not only are many internet lifts complete fiction, but beyond that, comparing yourself to others isn't really worthwhile unless you're competing
otherwise, for the vast majority of trainees, the only comparison that matters is:
You yourself, before:after

you'd think that
but people would still lie about their lifts and their stats
it's a fact of life on the Internet... learn to deal with it.

i spose its that competitive edge i have, but if you have a goal of lifting more than someone else better than you.... or looking bigger... or getting less bf% then it could be usefull

I'm actually a ninety-two year old lady. I just come here to brag about my lifts and look at all the cute member pictures. Originally Posted by Callahan

Oh, and I squat 10^4.76
I could make the page to be honest with you. Rather simple to be honest with you, though of course a little more difficult to link it up with the membership at wbb.. and I'd need a server that supports/allows a mysql database and php.LaLa

The only thing I care about is that I get better over time, and that you get better over time.
I don't care if you get better than me, or I get better than you.
I care about what I can learn from you about how you get better over time, and I care about how I can share how I get better over time.
I do not care about keeping information from others so I may benefit, and they not.
It's what makes the Iron Game so great.Squats work better than supplements.
"You know, if I thought like that, I'd never put more than one plate on the bar for anything, I'd never use bands or chains, I'd never squat to parallel or below, and I'd never let out the slightest grunt when I lift. At some point in your lifting career (assuming you're planning on getting reasonably strong and big), you're going to have to accept that most people think you are some kind of freak." -Sensei

Not all webservers allow you to put a database in the background, and not all of them allow you to use a language to connect to that database. Originally Posted by JD77

Not to mention that most people who are concerned with that type of stuff put it in their profile.

Find some guys around your size or strength and if you want to get into a friendly competition fine. But simply comparing numbers tells you virtually nothing. Some guys will lift to their limit and focus on power, others are well below that and focusing on physique. Some are in between, some are experienced, others not, some are cutting, some are bulking. I could go on forever explaining why comparing numbers on such a mass scale is relatively worthless, that's why you meet people here, get to know them, and then share stuff like that.
In the end, it's best to focus on your own numbers, not those of others.Deadlifts are like women, they'll hurt you everytime, but they'll also make you a man. - Me

Or change your username to something androgenous or even feminine. But then you'd get hit on.
