His physique certainly ain't average.. but its no more wrong than someone at the very lean end of the spectrum.
In the absence of diabetes, heart disease or hypertension.. as long as you're exercising and eating decently.. its not troubling from a medical standpoint.

As far as I know, there is no history of heart disease in my family. My father is adopted, so I don't know much about his real family history but he has abused his body in some amazing ways and is still walking, so I think my genetics are pretty strong. Cancer took down my grandfather on my mother's side in his 70's, but again no heart or blood pressure problems that I know of.
