New Body Building rules: The base level of bodybuilding adds +1 GE to the character’s encumbrance limit. Level one gives the character +1 DP and adds 25 lbs. to the character’s weight. The cycle repeats up to level four, so that the maximum limits for any character is GE 9, DP 5, and weight 200 lbs.
