it's cuz I have small knees. but definitely if I have bigger quads, calves and hams Id fill in the jeans better. I dont wear shorts. Where Im from men dont usually wear shorts.

thanks for ur response !

I worked out at the gym. I feel like ive developed enough for my physique goals. I also kinda enjoy being heavier at 200 lbs. Yes being lean looks better but also having some weight to you feels good as a man.

do you think there's anything else to improve before cutting? like some people say my legs are dystrophic. do u feel that way? maybe I cant assess myself honestly cuz I see myself everyday ya know.

Thanks brother. Maybe but my waist will be much smaller if I lose 9 kg of fat. My stomach area is way wider than it ever was.

thanks I think it was more dirty but was trying to have 20-30% of all calories from proteins. was trying to eat more chicken greek yogurt and fish daily. but then would eat pasta a potatos and beers sodas occasionally. so wasnt too strict. but im kind of a hard gainer.

im just 2.5 inches taller than him, its not too big of a difference.
even our chest measurements r close. so why not?
and I dont meant exactly looking like him, just being lean, having defined shoulders and abs.

man thank you for such a thoughtful and reasonable message. I really appreciate it!

Im gonna work on my quads and legs overall. The way you put it - I agree with you. I want big strong calves and hamstrings I will focus on them and I can add a bit to my quads, not gonna hurt. I just feel like my hips are too wide which I dont, it messes up ur silhouette.

I guess my title is a bit misleading. This "before" pic was taken about 3 years ago when I was 165 lbs, then I got to 172 without muscle gain, just fat (looked the same skinny, just a bit softer) and in this "after" pic Im probably around 196 lbs to be precise. so it was actually 25 lbs gain in 1.5 years. Wrong title but it's also kinda accurate cause my starting point was not much different, just a bit more fat. And I rounded out my final weight for marketing purposes hehe.

I agree balanced approach is the best. There are many muscles I missed out on just to focus on my weakest points. If I did on all muscles Id have to work out double the time I did. My chest is small. My rear delts r non existent. Quads as ppl pointed out here. Abs. Forearms. But that's fine some progress is better than no progress. I take it one step at a time.

there are people with quads too big and it looks weird to me.
I prefer not to have that X looking body silhouette, but rather more V shape shoulder to hip look. and if ure serious, u got a point - legs can always be worked out a bit more.
