just wondering OP; Do you Dead/Squat?

Leg day is one of my favorite days. My favorite leg exercise: heavy SLDL's.

Spot sold to MegaLex88!

[s2pid]

men's physique means don't work legs? whats with the board shorts?


It's all about proportions and posture so:
delts too small for arms
shoulders are slouched forward
calves...

can't tell if you have any hip/glute problems since no side pics

oh yeah and strong smirk

everything looks great brah but legs need to match up with your strong upper body. I think heavy Squats would do the trick. Overall GJDM

[Romanus122]

Needs more delts and maybe -3% bf

[mccoy19]

looking swole.
What's your waist size?

I typically will do a 'sucked in' measurement sometimes in the morning to get a feel for where i'm at, before this show it was at 28.5inches sucked in in the morning (before food). So as for my actual waist size when relaxed, not sure.

maybe it's the posture but traps look asymmetrical

It's partially the posture and partially them being asymmetrical. One side of my body is a bit bigger than the other.

Id say delts thats about it, you have a good physique just didnt come in on point. Good proportions id give bodybuilding a try but ur gonna have to get to a way lower bf to do good lol

Haha yea definitely, i mostly just did these competitions as something to focus on and keep me motivated and having fun after a break up a month and a half ago. So I didn't 'prep' for these shows for more than just a few weeks - hence not being lean enough. It was fun though and kept my mind off the break up, so i enjoyed it. My delts are crazy strong but I will try to bring them out size wise.

was gonna ask to see quads myself... can't answer totally without seeing 'em

Yes i need some leg shots, the only ones i have aren't appropriate to post. Hard to take non-awkward/creeper looking leg shots.

Abs blocky not well defined and slight what looks like gyno. Other than that, nice shoulders, thick chest, and good serratus/lats. Mirin hard.
But-that is the cheekiest smile I have ever seen.

Agreed bro, working on abs. Can't do much about the gyno aside from surgery - which is expensive and i'd hate to be out of the gym for 6-8 weeks. :/

And haha i love my cheeky kunt grin

your arms are bigger than your deltoids and you look like you're on cell tech. still mirin tho

Arms are pretty big

looking swole as ****

just need more definition.

Agreed 100% with more definition i'd look a TON better.

work on your gyno and the punchability of your c.unty facial expressions.

i love my grin, lol. And I can't do anything about the gyno aside from surgery sadly. Which isn't an option at this point.

Only thing that needs improvement is your left trap imo. Rest of the body looks good to me bro.

Thanks bro!

overall good physique but weird looking abs

Yea, they could use some work

-Calves need work
-Left trap smaller than right trap, balance that out
-Work obliques
-Work abs (more crunches especially)

Thanks bro, calves are genetics though. I have high inserting sprinter calves, i work them a ton but they wont really grow.

Well i did one final Men's Physique competition for fun this past weekend. I know I needed to be leaner, but aside from that please critique my physique. Be brutally honest. What needs work? What doesnt? What sticks out as bad? Any suggestions/advice? All serious answers will be appreciated and i'll rep as many as I can.

Also contemplating switching over to bodybuilding in the late spring/early summer. Any thoughts on that? I've been told i'm getting too 'big' for MP.

5'11 207lbs:

can you show us an angle other than the front. god, how are we supposed to critique you when we cant even see you.

[aal04]

Looks like you have Vag Abs unfortunately.

Otherwise pretty good besides being leaner

[mccoy19]

Second from right

[CockeyJamel]

know a guy that just won eastern usa's physique hes about 5'9 180s, so maybe at your height low 190s

maybe some combo of winny(or var) and clen , maybe letro to harden up too

[SpartacusNYC]

What kinda cycle do you ride?

[TeamLegit]

Looking good bruh. Keep smashing calves. Either way keep it up.

[ace2735]

hey stud dig the pic, handsome face, hot abs, and a great smile

would like to cast you in my video, hit me up for info

op pepper your angus

Mike Balan? He has a great physique, flows really well. He's shorter than 5'9 though. (He is the guy who won eastern USA's, i was at the show. Crazy turn out, over like 70 of us doing just men's physique at it.

[vincelombard]

Second from right

ok, first off great physique man.

now for critique's.

your arms look very large from the front but when you turn around they're not impressive in comparison. triceps need to be bigger. from behind they look like an average gym goer.

lats look pretty wide from front but kinda thin from behind. no homo but glutes look like they need to come up. and quads dont seem to be pressing on your board shorts so i'm going to guess you just need to squat more overall.

chest and traps are sick. biceps are sick too.

i would say squat, bring triceps up ALOT. and work on looking overall ticker from behind. from the front you look massive. from behind that special quality you have disaapears

[jekene]

First look:
Delts(and so forearms could possibly do with some more mass)
Calves(probably doesnt matter in that contest though
Looks like your shoulders are slouched forward

wat

[Beauuu]

You could start off by cleaning the jizz off of your mirror

[WHEYcant]

I'll have to agree on he slightly uneven trapz. I would also wish for some more calf/leg work. Other than that you are frikkin' set; fresh pun everywhere you go. Srs.

22 years old? I'm 23 and barely started putting on some mass. Feelsbadman.jpeg

lawl, that's much more likely toothpaste.. but still funny.

[mwentworth]

You look ****ing swole but gotta come in leaner, also the delts are off (right one is bigger and to small for arms)
But other then that mirin

[lolpatto]

Looking thick, solid tight op.

Personally, I think you'd be fine in Mens physique if you cut 10-15lbs. That way you look a reasonable size for the div, and you'll be leaner.
Would bring out your abs, which could be stronger (Greg Plitt and Rob Riches vids are great).
And perhaps more delts.

Nice waist to shoulder width ratio!

[Apollo365]

U do look too big for men's physique bro. They mark you off for that. U almost look bloated like ur holding too much water. Def need to come in leaner next time. I'd say either slim down more to stay in men's physique or keep packing on the size to compete in bodybuilding. Do you have the legs to do bodybuilding? Any leg pics?

[Gsxr25]

Legs and abs, then mission complete.

I agree 100% man, I appreciate the honest and in depth feedback. My chest used to be garbage, as were my biceps... it seems i've slowly turned them into strong points. So, i feel good about that.

Back - I agree, I've been working hard on adding thickness to my back.
Triceps - I agree with what you say, here, too. The thing is - My triceps are insanely strong. Like freaky strength status, hands down my strongest bodypart. I can close grip bench 315 for 8 reps. I also do a ton of sets and reps trying to build hypertrophy on them, but they don't seem to want to grow much. I'll keep working on it and try to change up my routine even more.

[Chronys]

Need more delts and traps brah. Also calves but I don't think any leg muscle group really matters for MP does it?

Overall, mirin'

[pummel]

rear delts+calves

[sb327]

fuk what the misc has to say about your gyno. its so extremely unnoticeable that only an insecure ******* who is searching for something small and insignificant to bring you down and make himself feel better would notice. but yeah, abs and calves/possibly quads are what you should work on. still look 100x better than i do so i cant say anything bad.

[Ace28]

Judging from the pics you have more than enough size for mens physique(if that's what your aiming for?). To me it seems your chest overpowers the rest of your upper body. Can't really see arms to great but it appears you could bring up arms and delts a bit to match your chest.
