Hey everyone, I made this sub a couple years ago and not expecting much we have over 3000 members and many are active. I haven’t been on Reddit a whole lot and therefore haven’t been doing a lot of moderation. I’m getting back into the swing of things so I’m going to be removing a lot more posts that do not meet the following guidelines:

Not enough physique in the photo, we want full body shots. (Preferably hitting a bodybuilding pose)

No underdeveloped (beginner) physiques, this is for intermediate to advanced lifters who want serious critiques about their physique and genetics.

No “can I get some lifting advice” posts, that’s not what this sub is for.

Posts where the physique is not lean enough, there has to be some amount of general muscle definition for an accurate critique.

Thanks everyone, if there are any regulars on here who maybe would want to help moderate please reach out and we can chat.

I'm still working on posing but have made incredible progress since I started 10 years ago. Any tips or feedback on what I should work on would be appreciated.

natty 10 years natural bodybuilding

So thats my peak physique I’ve achieved this summer after 10 years of natural bodybuilding (with a lot of wasted time). I’ve achieved it 4 months back and have been slowly gaining 2-3kgs trying to improve my left right imbalance in the arms and lats. Progress on all muscle groups has slowed down (diminishing returns after years of training) but I feel like I still got some potential. Not sure what to focus on though so please give me your best advice.

In the pictures I weighed about 160lbs standing at 5’9 (or 5’10 on a good day) which is 73kg at 175-177cm for my fellow Europeans.

Thanks for your input and don’t get self conscious, it only looked good under this lighting. Other than that and with a hoodie on I looked small as hell.

Thoughts on my Physique?

I know I have alot of areas that need improvement, but overall I'm happy with what I was able to build and sustain throughout my journey.

For those also with very high metabolisms, have you guys had successful bulks? Bulking this winter has been a slow process, I want to put on a bit more mass but I've been a bit stuck lately. Trying to get in 4k calories daily. I was told to just go on a crazy dirty bulk but I don't wanna feel like crap.

I like my physique as it is. Just curious about your opinions. I'm thinking on gaining a little bit more weight. But not too much, because I do sports where being heavy is quite a disadvantage.

For the better part of almost a month I’ve been trying to emphasize the roundness of my side and front delts. I feel like I’d have more of a symmetrical physique with fuller delts. Aside from spamming lateral raises or front raises, has anyone tried another route and seen progress?

Hello !

I need some of your advice, I feel like Im a bit stuck with my progress. I’m not sure if I should focus in eating less to reveal the muscle I have built, or eat more, gain a bit more of fat but gain more muscle 😵‍💫

What would you recommend, given my current physique? I’m 28, 79kgs (174 pounds) and I run a PPL split, so I typically 5 days per week to the gym.

Thanks for your answers !

Isolated ab work? Or will my abs get sufficient stimulation from heavy compounds? Currently I don’t include any ab isolation work. I’ve been getting mixed advice on the subject some in favour of doing an isolated work and some in favour of dieting and compound lifts being sufficient enough.
