        Only under 10% which no one on this board is. Funnily enough, high body fat increases estrogen. Enjoy your gyno.

        High bodyfat decreases testosterone. You have to be very, very lean to lose test. He would get higher test from losing some weight.

          Likewise you would have to be very, very fat to meaningfully impact testosterone. What do you think is more conducive to higher test? A caloric deficit or a surplus?

                In the long term, maintenance.

                It would depend on the maintenance. Someone with a maintenance of 2500 is likely to have lower test than someone with a maintenance of 3500. Point being, if you're 150 pounds with abs, you probably don't have very high test, while someone like OPs pic (no abs) very likely has pretty high test

        I figured that you having a six pack or just a flat stomach boils down entirely to genetics.
        I know guys who only do compound lifts and they have a six pack at 20% bf.
        I know guys who are lean, to ab exercises and compound lifts on top of that, so have a strong core and their stomach is just flat with no visible abdominal muscles.

            Just do physical sport and compound lifts (with accessories). Perferably wrestling if you want that bodytype. Also preferably you had started before puberty so your body adapted to that type of frame.
            Also its not natty so you'd also be gambling on whether you were a hyperresponder to T but its certainly possible although extemely improbable.

              by the way dude I can give you a physique advice consultation if you want. All you have to do is send me a picture of yourself facing front and I will use digital editing with captions on the finished edit to show you exactly how to achieve the look, etc. Might not be what you're looking for in terms of looks, but if you are curious to see what a physique specialist might think is good for you, just shoot.

I don't know what kind of pozzed social environment you grew up in, but back in my place, most teenage girls would cream over manly men and pursue athletes and the stuff.
                Only the fat, loser girls who were ugly would latch on to some idealized figure like an ''idol'' or a ''celebrity''. Well adjusted Stacies and Beckies were all over the sport games and big events where actual men would attend.

She actually valued athletes and took great interest in health and fitness thanks to living the lifestyle. Now in her thirties she is in great shape, an athlete herself and a woman which is probably statistically 1 in a 100 million by female judgment standards. She grew up perfectly to be honest.

                Yeah, in real life some literally who sad loser that fell for the male gaze meme convinced sine random ass girl who we can't even see (and who hides her face from the camera out of sheer embarrassment not to be associated with that moron) to impress his audience of entire ten totally non homosexual males that drool over his body
                While BTS fills up every single arena they've been to with prime teens absolutely obsessing over them, tickets selling out months before their performance
                Lol

                Lol
                Prime teens don't obsess over body builders and athletes. Call me when one of them fills up an arena full of primies with ambulance being called because girls kept fainting in excitement and veganal spasms.
                Teen girl interests and trends have always been the same.
                Justin Bieber, One Direction and now K-pop craze all have a teenage girl audience because they can't resist the feminine young boyish looks.
                You really think girls in their prime age have any idea who the frick Rich Piana or some other juiced up moron is ? But mention any member of the BTS to them and they will cream their pants while hyperventilating and shaking their hands.

                no...my sister was a well adjusted Stacy who knew exactly the right kind of guy to go after early on in life. Damn I'd rope myself if my sister wanted to marry some neotenic feminized asian twink kpop singer. She actually valued athletes and took great interest in health and fitness thanks to living the lifestyle. Now in her thirties she is in great shape, an athlete herself and a woman which is probably statistically 1 in a 100 million by female judgment standards. She grew up perfectly to be honest.

    asking for an ideal body is like asking for an ideal car, do you need something to park easily in a dense city, or something to climb a mountain with?

    ideal body for what? do you intend to participate in mma fights? do you need speed and elasticity? do you want to be huge roider to impress your boyfriend or you want to focus on preserving your heart and arteries so you can reach your 100th lonely birthday shitposting on IST? huge differences

      >ideal car
      This is my ideal car. Compact, sporty and good looking. Not overly powerful, lightweight, playful and agile instead. Therefore I like the fit, not overly muscular or bulky type of of bodies, but still well defined and strong.

    If you wanna bench more than 365 lb, ye.
    If you wanna frick women below the age of 35, no. He probably has a round face and double chin.
    t. had a similar body only a few months ago, was extremely strong (could bench close to 400 pounds, but did weight like 240 lb), but had bad cardio, chest pain and slept 10 hours a night. Plus my face was fat so I got zero female attention.

        As opposed to bodybuilders who look like gay porn stars, because they literally are gay.
        Vanity is the most feminine trait you can have, and bodybuilders are defined by it.

          Yeah, bodybuilding is gay and cringe, but you're no better. Powertroons are the height of vanity, your entire gimmick is trying to impress other dudes with your PRs.

    Saw a video about dudes showing 4 pics of different male bodies to girls.
    Only 1 out of 30 found muscular body the best, all of the other ones liked more chubby or just a slim body.
    Found the vid https://youtu.be/p9eQ6eYXHWo

      >believing what women say
      >especially in public

      Lol. Why expose yourself as a virgin like this? Women are deathly afraid of being seen as shallow and will shit like "intelligence is sexier than looks" or some gay shit like that. Meanwhile, they're getting ass-fricked by a 6'4 230 lbs high school quarterback.

      Seriously, I've fricked two b***hes that told me they don't like muscles. One of them on the same day. The other one years later when I was even bigger and roided to the gills. She admitted she felt insecure being with me because it would mean she has to work out too.

      What women say they like, what they think they like and what they actually like are usually 3 different things.

    The truth is that for getting pussy arms and shoulders are all that matters because that's what people see and it's what decides if you look jacked or not.
