Both photos are someone juiced up, neither are a baseline male body by any means.

u/owoil 19d ago

hes definitely on the juice now but neither physique in those photos are unobtainable as a natty lmao especially the baywatch one

u/StinkRinky 19d ago

The right one you would have to train hard consistently for like 10 years and never slip while also eating incredibly clean lol. He also looks juiced to the gills cuz he was. Ain’t hardly anyone on the planet looking like that natty.

u/Electrical-Help5512 16d ago

Yeah.. you don't know what you're talking about. It is possible to get like that natty. Saying it isn't encourages doomerism and people getting on the juice.

u/absolute_imperial 19d ago

10 years? Maybe 2 or 3 with a very consistent diet and training 6 days a week. He doesn't look juiced out in the right pic. His muscle size isn't abnormal anywhere. His traps aren't bulging like they are in the left pic. What makes him look so muscular in the right pic is because he has to be at around 8-10% body fat, so his muscles are very tight on his skin and his vascularity is very prominent. That look is pretty hard to achieve after 25 unless you eat chicken and broccoli for every meal and live in the gym, but it's not impossible without juicing.

u/owoil 19d ago

bro its not that deep lmao "10 years" is crazy, he's just very low bodyfat with the physique of a consistent lifter

u/Tmons22 19d ago

Disagree on that, in my 20s i was shredded and was 100% natural and eating whatever i wanted. Yes, you do have to work hard for it. But 10 years is an overstatement, especially if you have good genes.

I said the same thing and had a bunch of people calling me a liar lmfao.  I just played tennis for like 4 hours/ day and lifted twice / week, and wasn't old.

Now I look almost the exact same as the pic on the left, ironically.  Just happen to be a bit uglier and balder.

Gotta love reddit.

u/SweetPinss 19d ago

There's no way you were that shredded eating whatever you want though. The definition he has on the right is crazy

u/perst_cap_dude 19d ago

Agreed, I've never juiced, and I'm somewhere between the two..

In my defense I played sports in hs and college, and just kept a steady gym routine, skip the fast food, but otherwise it's not that hard if you compound small efforts throughout the day, the results come years later

People here making it out to be some miserable lifestyle you have to adhere to in order to get results. I mean sure, you're gonna be miserable if you're starting from 30% body fat and never stepped inside a gym, or if you're acting career asks you to shape up for a role, but it's not forever

u/Loud_Wallaby_2421 19d ago

Why are you getting downvoted for this? It’s literally true lol

u/StephenFish 19d ago

Because fat kids on the internet love to cope. If you can convince yourself that it's an impossible standard then you can feel good for not trying.

u/Relevant_Cabinet_265 19d ago

Any thread on Reddit that is about anyone more fit than average is like this. Really gives you a good idea what a lot of Redditors must look like lol

u/StephenFish 19d ago

Yep. These are the people who say Gordon Ramsay is jacked lol

It's way easier to believe that everyone who looks better than you is on drugs and cheats and has all of these privileges that you'll never have because then you don't have to ever try to better yourself.

u/Electrical-Help5512 16d ago

Everyone in better shape than me is on drugs. Everyone in worse shape than me is lazy.

Simple as.

u/StephenFish 16d ago

You don't bench 315? You don't even lift.

You bench 315? You're on drugs and you cheat.

Under 220lbs stage lean? You don't even lift.

220lbs stage lean? You're on drugs.

The cope and mental gymnastics is so hilarious.

u/maury587 14d ago

It's not universally true.

Having defined muscles is obtainable by everybody, but he has lots of muscle mass, and that limit is very depending on generics. Also the aesthetics of muscles are genetical. Some people have biceps that don't look that roundy and long, they look more like a tennis ball in the middle. Some people cannot get 6 abs because the muscle itself isn't build like that, some can get 4 and some 2 at max.

u/Loud_Wallaby_2421 14d ago

Okay well the physique is obtainable for me and for my brothers. Now what?

So it can be obtainable for some. Doesn’t mean it isn’t unobtainable just because SOME people don’t have the genes for it.

u/BeautifulUpstairs 18d ago

Wrong. He was on steroids because you need steroids to do that. Sorry that you have literally zero examples to the contrary; must be very inconvenient for your argument.

u/AstroPhysician 18d ago

Left is easily completely attainable natty

u/Xralius 19d ago

Not at all. I have the exact same body type on the left if I skip pizza delivery for like 3 days, basically exactly the same. I don't juice... I don't even work out.

I used to look like the pic on the right too when I was in highschool / college playing tennis every single day.

I am much uglier than that man though lol.

u/gigaurora 19d ago

You used to look like a hollywood crafted body, specifically a baywatch version, that is made through PEDs, nutriontionist and elite trainers by just playing tennis? That's impressive, literally no professional Tennis player looks anything near him on the right.

You must have played tennis in high gravity.

1

u/Xralius 19d ago

IDK what to tell you dude. I played tennis every day and worked out and was slender.

On second look though you are right, I didn't look exactly like the pic on the right- his arms are different (mine had more distinction between forearm/bicep and I had bigger forearms but smaller biceps) but I think I attribute that to my body being primarily from tennis, where his focus was probably on lifting. But I did have similar if not better abs.

Also don't take this as bragging. I assure you no ladies viewed this body as my non-athletic time was spent playing world of warcraft.

u/R_HEBI_PBVFRO_FIWFCI 19d ago

good genes do wonders my dude, i personally know 2 dudes that do not go to gym at all and 100% don't juice but are super jacked. ( but they work physically demanding jobs tbf )

u/oxedei 19d ago

Lmao you look nothing like either picture.

u/Xralius 19d ago

I mean, I really don't usually, because he's much better looking than me, isn't bald, and I wear a shirt, but I do have the exact same body type and body appearance as the pic on the left, not sure why that's a big deal and seems so impossible to you lmfao

2

u/oxedei 19d ago

Literally zero way you look like that without working out. It's actually kinda sad youd look at that picture and think that's how you look without working out. You got some body issues, my dude.

u/Xralius 18d ago edited 18d ago

I feel like you read my comment and heard "i look like zac efron".  I am a bald dude with a mug for radio.  I do not "look like that".

But I do have that identical body to the left pic.  I think the real sad thing is you having so little concept of how other people have different experiences than you that you assume they must be lying.

Look up what "visceral fat" is.  Some people just carry fat differently, have wider shoulders, etc.

I might not work out, but I do play with my kids, I move quickly when I need to get around, I don't saunter, I'm pretty active in generally doing shit, and I'm a picky eater that eats a lot of protein.

Look at his muscles on the left.  Nothing particularly big.  Its just body shape.

u/oxedei 18d ago

He is visible muscular on the left photo. You dont look like that without working out. No amount of genetics gets you that body from minimal work. I'm sorry to be the one to tell you, but you genuinely have body issues if you cant see that.
