>>75704580
I was just thinking that. His face looks so much better than the rest of him. Also if that's 21% bf then holy hell, that looks chubby as fuck

no chance. ~20% bf and 190lbs at that height would look sort of builtfat.

yes exactly, that's how percentages work. it cannot be both 21.7% and 190lbs. he's skinny fat and way above 21.7% body fat percentage

U/L four day split, going for 315x1 by end of March so the only back work I do are hammer strength horizontal rows on the low grip because I theorize that since it travels almost the exact same bar path as bench, it works all the antagonistic muscles that need to be strong to bench heavy.

Just a theory. Currently at 250x3-5, if I can get that to 265-270 I think I can do it.

Big pecs = big bench is a meme. You get big pecs from tons of isolation work; big back = big bench. I’d wager most people could bench significantly more if they just strengthened their upper back.

>>75704593
Maybe his legs are absolutely pealed

>>75704570

>>75704590
He's like 30% and has unfortunate body fat distribution

>>75704662
How does this happen? Why is he eating so much?

>>75704570
i'm 5'10, 185lbs, 20.7% bodyfat. he's 33% at best.
his physique is hilariously bad.

>>75704580
Because his hormones are fucked and he probably eats seed oils daily.
Even if he cuts he will still look bad. Notice how he has 0 upper body muscle in his arms and chest.
The only way to fix this body is TRT and probably thyroid hormones

That's not 21% bodyfat. I know because I have similar stats and I'm currently around 22% bodyfat (at a lower weight, mind you), significantly bigger and quite a bit leaner.

The average American male is shorter and weighs at least 10-15 pounds more than him, sadly.

not entirely accurate, he could have absolute shit frame genetics and a super high bone density. photographs never actually show wide a persons frame aka shoulders, ribcage hips etc actually are without some kind of reference point. the only thing you have to reference with is the rest of their body.

although going with what we have to work with, that one one photo definitely screams 30% body fat or more, he literally has fat overflowing from his waistband. i would be really surprised if his non LBM and non adipose tissue amounted a higher amount than normal

Ignoring the mentally ill and weak losers (the bulk of leftists), liberalism appeals to people who are compassionate but misguided in their compassion.

Liberalism/leftism sells itself as the kind and caring worldview, and if one is ignorant how the world really works/has never been exposed to alternative viewpoints, it is very easy to embrace these ideas.

There are lots of people on the right who are former leftists, there are virtually no former right leaning people on the left.

As a former fatty who worked hard to get lean (just did 16 pullups for the first time today), I LOVE seeing shit like this.
You just know he'd probably never really been fat, because otherwise he'd be terrified of getting fat again, and wouldn't get obese for the sake of a fucking 3pl8 dl (kek at them being bumpers too), which means he got memed into morbid obesity by a boomer redneck who writes cuck fiction.

you can't judge his lat development from those pictures. he's doing a weird pose on the right where you flare your scapula and basically hide your lats behind your back. try replicating his pose in front of a mirror. you can make your lats mostly disappear if you pull your shoulders back in the "right" way.

It's genes. Men in my family are the same. My father is 140kg/308lb and he has no double-chin.

The upside is that you still look like a real person when you are fat, but the downside is that it is very hard to get visible abs when you are lean since you carry all the mass in your midriff.

They're in literally everything dumbass. If you're not cooking your meals from scratch (which is most people unfortunately) then the processed shite you're eating almost definitely contains seed oils. Go for a stroll down the condiments aisle of your local shop.and take a look at the ingredients of each sauce. anything with a "creamy" texture will be 80+% seed oils, most likely rapeseed oil. Go and look at the bread section then and check which oils it contains. Or the chips, or the mashed potato, or the frozen pizza. You're a total spastic if you can't see how something so ubiquitous could have such effects

Kek at him being "skin and bones from chest up"; did he not see and feel all of the fat on his chest & arms? Does he not see the complete lack of vascularity?

I took a full year off from doing almost any physical exertion except a shooting competition like six months ago and did legs yesterday and did 4x5 315 on squat and some heavy singles at 405 on deadlift
i think there are genuinely some people who have the unfortunate luck to have been sedentary all through puberty while also having horrible victim genetics, so they could go all out on the ideal programming plus steroids and end up plateauing where the average person does after like two years of slightly higher than casual strength training

The upside though is that if you do actually train you'll still be fitter than others with shit genes that don't

can just magically gain 50lbs of muscle in 6 months if you follow their routine or share their videos or improve their engagement metrics because "hey its free and its basedence based". your progress is on track for 3 years of training. transforming your body isnt something you do in a few months before summer so you can get all the chicks its a lifestyle and you have to live it to see the results.

I do not believe in fitness influenceurs. However, I cannot believe that everyone online (/fit/ or other bodybuilding platforms) is ALWAYS lying on their progress. There must be a majority of people telling the truth and just be blessed by good genetics. I cannot believe the opposite.

>just to be able to life slightly heavier weights
It's not even like he's putting on a bit of fat to get better at the OHP or pull-ups; it's the DL, one of, if not THE, easiest lifts to progress on.
And worse, it's so heavily dependent on leverage that his ever-expanding waistline is putting him at an ever-greater mechanical advantage, so his added weight on the bar isn't even proof of muscle hypertrophy.

>>75714306
You're wrong lad, it's not some blackpill, woe-is-me, "muh genetics" cope thing - this guy is just a pussy and has clearly never been motivated enough to go balls-to-the-wall and give 100% effort at any physical activity.

I've been working in physically laborious jobs my whole life on the land and at sea, and one thing is a constant - the ones who do the most actual work (i.e. physical activity) are the ones who *look* like they do the most work. They're a healthy weight and lean and vascular. It is extremely rare for a blubbery softbody to be one of the ones who's very active/a hard worker. I have no reason to believe that this guy in OP is any different. He looks soft and untrained because he's almost certainly not been "training" at anywhere near the intensity required to produce any benefits or visible results. Honest to god LOOK AT HIS ARMS! If you throw him on a farm or a building site as a labourer for 3-4 months I absolutely guarantee you that he would come out the other side leaner and with more musculature than his entire year of supposed "training".

Don't give these weak pussy faggots an excuse - they need to learn that unless your face is red; absolutely dripping with so much sweat it's getting in your eyes and running off your nose; and your heart rate is up at >160bpm, then you simply haven't put in the fucking effort.

>>75706437
He has basically no submental fat are you blind

>>75715438
He wouldn't though, because he's clearly weak as fuck and wouldn't be able to lift weights heavy enough to do that to himself. Plus, you can make huge fitness gains just by doing high-rep low-weight compounds like rowing or presses. Most physical labour is 8-12hrs of similar stuff and it will get a nonfit person absolutely shredded ottermode in a year of work, providing their diet isn't 100% slop.

The "man" in OP just lacks any kind of thrift or mental grit to compel him to try that hard.

It's similar, for me, although in the other direction.

retards obsess over gaining 100% of the potential muscle gain within a certain time frame instead of just ~80-90% and thus massively overeat "just to be on the safe side"

If everything is determined during childhood (ages 5-15) to build an athletic background that will allow you to succeed in lifting, and if you’ll never succeed in weight training without it, it’s a bit unfair, isn’t it? When you’re young, you’re not aware of these things, and you’re not the only one making decisions about your life. Parents can refuse to let you join a sports club or, at the very least, make it difficult for you, as they did for me.

>>75717188
It's natural for children (especially boys) to want to move alot and do sports during childhood. Even if your parents don't allow you to do sports they aren't with you 24/7 they can't control what you do at school, what a pathetic world view you have here sir.

but that's exactly the issue
if you haven't done any kind of labor or sport or activity that loads your skeleton by the time you're done with puberty, you're fucked, your growth plates have fused, and you will be skeletally weak.
you can have shit genetics and still have broad shoulders if you swim, row, help dad out with carpentry, whatever.

what you said just proved my point. if you pick age 28 to start doing physical activity, there's almost no point if your genetics are bad enough, because you're fighting a skeleton that's fused in a sedentary form. you're speaking as someone who's done physical labor their entire life. you'd be stronger at a baseline level than someone who started at 28 and spent 5 years doing intense strength training simply because that person is categorically sick. if your growth plates fuse without growing in response to muscular loading, you end up looking like Destiny, and you're pretty much done

>>75717689
So starting in your adulthood with no athletic background is pointless because you missed the boat?

>>75717805
i'm not saying it's pointless, but it will take you years to achieve what others do in months and you're capped at the free-to-play quest rewards.
i mean, it sucks, but it's like tiger woods' son. you're insane if you believe you can even get remotely close to the performance of someone who's been doing it since like age 3.
i started lifting at 15 and I'm pissed that I started so late because I could have probably gotten one or two inches more of shoulder width if I'd started earlier

although the most important thing to footnote this with is that I'm talking about lookism shit and performance
there's absolutely a point in lifting even if you start at 60 because it increases your quality of life and keeps you from dying because you tripped
