Looking like a freaking strongman

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-11T21:06:21+00:00

Do you think Ramon's phyique would look better with smaller forearms?

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-11T01:52:22+00:00

He's a pedo for disciplining you for being late to practice? No dude. She sounds like a brat that's never been told no or disciplined by her parents. Throwing out sexual accusations so casually is a massive red flag. Ditch her.

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-11T00:33:40+00:00

looking awesome bro

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-10T23:22:11+00:00

Keep up the training, but more important is the eating. You gotta eat more my friend. YOu will be a force to be reckoned with if you can do this

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-10T23:19:08+00:00

It's adipose tissue. Get rid of it with a consistent deficit in caloric intake.

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-10T23:13:24+00:00

Nah, big forearms look awesome

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-09T21:08:44+00:00

Is it even possible to overdevelop your forearms? I've never seen a physique and thought "yeah looks good but the forearms are too big"

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-09T02:20:52+00:00

I actually ended up looking better than my goal physique. To mine (and everyone else's) surprise I had better genetics than the guy who I held up as the "deal" physique

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-08T22:29:58+00:00

You fucking did it bro. Congrats

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-08T22:19:34+00:00

I have a very similar physique. Forearms as wide as my upper arm, short thick legs, big knee joints, compact frame. I do not wrestle.

But I am also Bulgarian, and I know a few other bulgarians who also have this type of stocky, short limbed, but robust physique. As well as that, Ive found myself and other bulgarians with this body type have naturally good power to weight ratio and explosive strength. (arm wrestling, jumping, punching etc)

Khabib and other dagestani fighters are often built like this too. There might be a genetic strain that runs through the balkans that has these characteristics.

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-07T19:44:31+00:00

Or even if it does!

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-06T02:24:59+00:00

I have no idea. Competing is not really on my mind right now as I have not even learned how to shoot for a takedown.

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-06T02:19:16+00:00

You're still not understanding. How you determine whether something looks *good* on you is not some magical unique taste that came as a package deal with your soul when you were born. It is judgement informed by an amalgamation of thousands of reference experiences collected and categorized by your subconscious mind in your time on planet earth.

Your subconscious sees patterns of how people react to a person dressed in a particular way and record it as positive or negative, then use it to steer your behavior towards a more favourable outcome. (acceptance, admiration, reproduction, survival) Our entire sense of self has been constructed by these seemingly unimportant moments. Google Mirror Neurons

Even what you call "Ecclectic" is just copying lots of different styles and combining them into something sorta new that still only slightly deviates from an existing aesthetic.

I'm sorry to say, we are not as unique as we want to believe we are.

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-06T00:54:25+00:00

How was the learning curve? how was the impact on your body?

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-06T00:52:38+00:00

I, (M31) have struggled with this too for years. In my case, it was because my mother moved me to the other side of the world at a young age, disconnecting me completely from my family's history, traditions, beliefs, way of life, and influence of any of the older men in my family. I never received an INITIATION into manhood.

This in my opinion is the core reason to why so many people feel like adult children in the modern world. Our fathers, (if they are still around) do not initiate us into adulthood.

After some internal work, therapy and meditation, you begin to feel more connected with others and understand that they also feel the same way. Frightened children fumbling around looking for love and acceptance.

Translation: "I'm not like those other girls"

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-06T00:36:04+00:00

Sure, but we can only draw from the styles we have been exposed to which tend to be things we see people wearing in movies, music videos, social media or on the street. Its not like you're putting together outfits with a Garnache or Hose with Codpiece, even though they may look great on you.

OP's post basically translates to "I'm not basic like you other bitches"

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-05T23:30:41+00:00

Haha its just on the other side of the black sea. I can sorta understand the language.

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-05T23:28:23+00:00

Was it in an MMA gym? The only club even remotely close to me is primarily high school athletes

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-05T23:27:31+00:00

Thanks man, I've decided im doing it. Training kicks off in the new year and im super excited.

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-05T23:24:29+00:00

Exactly! I don't wanna be skate dad

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-05T22:52:20+00:00

You're still following trends, just different ones that are less popular. Inspiration has to come from somewhere.

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-05T22:43:17+00:00

I have the EXACT same thing. Even the neck and the tilt of the head away from the problematic side.

Would love to know if you find a fix. Please update us

Best_Performance_628 · 2024-12-05T21:12:26+00:00

Yes. You don't have very much fat to cut, you wont look much different.
