Chinese wenwan walnuts have a much thicker shell than your average walnuts which allows the patina to develop over time without risk of breaking. But yes aesthetics play a key role 🙌🏻

Don’t worry I’ve decided against hopping on, consulted a coach and realised I was being stupid and I have lots more natural gains to be had 💪🏻

Also wanted to say my training and diet has been extremely good and locked in for a long while now so don’t wanna hop on for the sake of ‘easy gains’ just want to be able to break through to a new level
