If you search the internet and read many fitness magazines, you will find that the male fitness industry is full of all kinds of personalities who believe in different things, for example, for some, an aesthetic physique may be Frank Zane or Surge. The Nubret type physique, which is more of a classic overly muscular bodybuilder type physique, while others prefer the fitness model type of physique like Greg Plitt or David Kimmerle. Everyone has their own opinion on what is aesthetic and we all work to achieve our own personal goals. Now I will tell you what kind of physics is more favorable in terms of real world situations.
Think of fitness magazines and bodybuilding magazines, magazines with huge, monster types are generally not for the average Joes and that look is not something most people want to sport. The magazines with the big ones are for bodybuilding fans and people obsessed with gaining size. Fitness magazines and men’s magazines, on the other hand, have images of smaller-sized men with an affordable physique, in better shape than the average man, but still considered normal-sized and athletic in build. You would never see those huge monstrosities that you find in some bodybuilding magazines in men’s magazines like men’s health, mainly because it is not how most people would want to look.
So now that I’ve given you a picture of what type of physique appears in what type of magazines I will give you some reasons why having lean muscle is better than being bulky.
The first thing is that getting a slim physique can be done naturally, using supplements to help you is a personal choice and they are legal, while getting an unnatural size like those Olympia guys is not a healthy thing, you put a lot of blemish on your body. And that level of muscle building is filled with the use of steroids that are illegal and have very serious side effects.
The second thing is that being lean is about having functional muscles that make you more athletic, just look at sprinters, they have lean muscles that allow them to run faster and be more powerful, and having functional muscles is what most of us do. The people want. Being bulky in the other hands makes you and an ogre, you can barely move and you sure can’t be fast with an unnatural amount of muscle putting pressure on your skeletal structure. Most of that muscle mass is for show.
Another thing is that you can dress in fashionable clothes and they will suit you if you are a slim type, but if you are abnormally large you will have a hard time finding clothes that look good and fit you, instead you will always wear baggy pants and shorts. . because your legs are too thick.
You will not look good on the beach topless if you are bulky, you have worked so hard that you have exceeded the ideal beach body that is a fitness model, lean physique type.
And finally, people of the opposite sex are more attracted to lean, muscular men with a fitness model and Hollywood-like physique, being too big will likely decrease the number of women who find you or your physique attractive if you you worry about that kind of thing.
I’ve given you a few reasons why I think the holly wood lean and muscular look is the look to go for if you care about functionality and overall appearance. I know there are others who disagree, but everything I mentioned above is what most people think too.
