I think there's a lot more natural variance than your sample size of one conveys. There used to be more specialized diets for each region, and a few areas probably grew giants in the past.

>>138028

Sure. Post them.

Bodybuilding craze definitely started before the 70s. Charles Atlas printed his memetastic "The Insult that Turned a Mac into a Man" in the 30s.

Thats basically a dad bod and a lot of women are perfectly content or even prefer that kind of body even today.

Bodybuilding is and always has been more about earning the respect and admiration of men. No homo.

>>138064

Just like a lot of men don't like fitness chicks, really.

>>138064

>No homo.

It might be no homo for you, but even Arnold Schwarzenegger talks about faggotry being a being a behind the scenes aspect of the bodybuilding culture. The bodybuilders themselves were not necessarily gay but they would get offers to pose for pictures and stuff. Bodybuilding doesn't pay the bills.

Jew past his prime bod?

"men"

That man has a very high level of unopposed estrogen. Estrogen causes water retention, but less well known is that it probably was a major factor in his hair loss. Androgens promote hair growth.

>>138098

The statement wasn't an assessment of his strength or lack thereof. Some people don't know what estrogen actually does to the appearance and mistake it for the influence of other hormones.

>>138099

Im just bantering, bro. I know exactly what you're getting at. Infact, I agree with you.

>>138098

What's the science behind being fat and lifting more?

>>138103

Theres no science hes just a lazy fat fuck whos probably on an intense cocktail of anabolics anyways.

I guess you could argue that since you never cut you can just bulk and make constant gainz but people who say that probably don't understand plateaus and how you body adapts to exercise.

>>138103

it can be harder to make gains while on a cut, so some powerlifters just permabulk. You can do that, but you will look like shit and get nogrills and have shittier bloodwork.

>>138105

>>138106

There must be a reason if EVERY power-lifter is a fat-fuck. As you already mentioned, they are most likely on PEDs, so they should be gaining strength anyway, and surely such a calorie surplus wouldn't be beneficial.

>>138114

It's because they don't know what they are doing. Yes, many of the strongest professional athletes in the world do not understand basic concepts of diet, nutrition, and hormones. Many of them just apply the concept of eating like a pig and shoot themselves up with all manner of steroids that just convert to estrogen because they don't know how to use them any other way. They usually succeed with these methods because rarely does someone apply a strategy with more nuance and expertise.

>>138103

If you were kipping all your shit you might get more momentum from your fat fucking gut, but EH WHO KNOW U NO I DONT

>>138198

>no pecs

>no traps

>(probably) no legs

>>138198

You look identical to weissmuller's bodytype except he has better pecs

>>138216

Whats even worse is guys with no triceps…triceps are twice as big a muscle than biceps. American men, should focus on the muscles they are lacking. Prinarily traps, lats, back, tri, delt, calf….

A guy at my high school must have say around all day and did curls but his chest was extremely small and unpronounced.

It resulted in a very oblong physique like a spongebob squarepants episode
