If someone who is 6'2 weighs 175 then chances are that they are probably going to look kind of tall and thin, and if they are muscular they probably will not have much muscle or else they would weigh more than that. Although 175 lbs is within the reccomended weight for a male who is 6'2, the reality is that the most "robust, strong-looking" individuals of that height usually weigh much more than 175. In addition, there are plenty of people who are taller than 6'2, so it is not like it is unusual for someone to be that height. So how it it that George Washington was considered uniquely "robust and tall" when he was no taller than anyone else, and in fact weighed a great deal less than a lot of people?
