    A few decades ago, the major insurance companies began keeping records of various circumstances relating to clients. One of their principal discoveries was that overweight is associated with relatively high mortality. The greater a person’s weight the greater his risk of early death. Recent statistics show that men who weigh 10 to 19 percent more than their ideal weight have a mortality rate one third higher than men of ideal weight. For those who weigh 20 percent or more above their ideal weight, the mortality rate is twice as high.

    Extra fat is living tissue, even though unnecessary. Therefore, it has to be supplied with blood like any other tissue. An increase in body fat requires a corresponding increase in the number of capillaries to supply this fat with blood. Some doctors have estimated that every pound of body fat calls for another two-thirds of a mile of new blood vessels. And the heart must pump blood through this extra system of vessels. This increases the heart’s work.
    With extra fat and thus extra weight, the muscles must work harder to move the body about. Obviously, it takes more work to move a 200-pound man up a flight of stairs than to move a 150-pound man. This additional activity of the skeletal muscles also adds to the work load of the heart.

    Miller does a lot of power lifting and compound weight training. Dumbasses on here talk about how he is fat and out of shape, laughable, most of his weight is stored in extra muscle, look at the size of his chest, arms, torso and quads these days, the man is a human tree trunk, hes a nightmare for any champion/contender.

    Let's see him move that weight around when he's hurt and trying to evade. When that house of cards falls it's gonna cause a tsunami....
