Thanks a lot man. The pic above is from I think November of last year, or maybe late October.

The pic attached is from January this year. I've made just a little progress in my shoulders since then (posting pictures next week).

I started working out when I was like 14 on and off and got serious when I turned 17. Stopped for a few years lol, started again at 19 real serious for a year. Stopped again and been serious since June of last year.

Hey, you do have narrow shoulders, but you still look great. A way to overcoem it is to always keep your back arched when sitting, and pulling your shoulder blades backwards constantly. This will make you naturally want to be more upright and your shoulders will appear broader.

Thanks for the reply guys. Any pics of you guys with broader shoulders?

I work my lats hard but they don't like to grow

Don't worry man, you have the height of a bodybuilder 5'10" thats an ideal height for a bodybuilder who usually competes, don't bother yourself...just train and be the best you can be

I have here..

You are a pure Meso with average shoulders and good development.

You have a very classic Davidesque build. http://www.asmilan.org/teachers/kwhe...elos_david.jpg

Your build is nice and you look healthy. Pure Meso's usually have the most "attractive" (no homo) builds.

Id say the dominant build for bbing is a Meso/endo hybrid, they can also build much more strength than a pure meso but need to really work to be lean.

Hey man, thank you very much for the comments. Let me ask you; my kinda fun/part time goal is to get on a magazine cover. How much weight do you guys think I need to put on? I'm trying to get to 185 shredded.

[yaman]

You could probably get onto a magazine the way you are now maybe about another 8-10lbs of solid muscle and you would have the ideal physique.

Awesome build dude, just awesome.

I know the differencd now lol.

[k0rup7]

Don't sweat it man.

See my attached pic from when I first stated. pretty clear that I don't have broad shoulders at all.

Someone says that to me now and I'll eat them.

[anikey]

definitely don't have as much mass as you (which is more important than bone structure IMO)

first_second is a really good example

I've been told I have wide shoulders as well.

Man look at this:
Bone Structure tells if your a Meso or not..But your frame i think is also a Meso...I think it should be better if you post a pics that is much clearer

[uppacut]

your shoudlers will often appear more broad if u have broad shoudlers and a really small waiste. even though some people have broader shoulders than me...mine create the illusion of being broader because they are broad, but i also have a small waiste

you're not a mesomorph.. you don't have adequate muscle mass. you're an ecto

"A person who has a mesomorphic body type. Naturally muscular, has a trim waist and can easily lose(Fat) and gain(Muscle mass) weight."

Man here is a BIG clue..so that we will know better what is a mesomorph:

End Of The Story "officially Close"


MesoPeaks = PURE MESOMORPH
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r...edded/pics.jpg


its a widely believed myth that "body type" is about flesh rather than bone, so in the popular misbelief: skinny = ecto, muscular = meso, fat = endo, but body type is really mostly about bone structure, and all 3 types can be skinny, muscular or fat.

another proof man...

in between, there good man you should keep them like that.

His delts need to be bigger then.

[CallMeTheHunter]

I've been lifting for years and never really understood the difference lol.

I figured you guys can help me to determine what it looks like based on pictures of myself. Thanks!

dude your right pec is like WAYYY bigger than your left. like, hardcore.

Hello guys, I know it is an old topic but I will renew it with this.

So, I've been doing a lot of swimming from the age of 12 and lifting from time to time and I'm wondering if I got broad shoulders or narrow. Here are some pics so you can give me your opinion and what should I work the most etc...
I'd post other pics if needed for specification if any.

Concerning my ratio:
I am 185 cm tall > 6'1

thanks again.

Any other more complete answers guys?

You most definitely have broad shoulders. What is a more complete answer? Your question was simply whether or not you have broad shoulders.
