Yo Alex I know you are growing your beard and much respect for rocking the homeless Viking look, but a simple trim while keeping the length is a really worthy investment to make your jaw look stronger. It wont set you back more than two weeks of beard growth but it will maintain the shape for much longer.
I know it would look better but I simply don't care anymore even if it makes me look worse. I have specific reasons for doing what I'm doing. I may trim in the future but not at this moment.
If you're still growing in height then that's a good strategy. I used to do that around the age of 10-13. At 13 I just stopped growing so it became unneeded.
Lol at all the comment asking him to cute his hair while he said like 20 times he want them long. And after that they will say they are OG sub =) Nice video btw, good points and smart thinking
I have T rex arms but Have a wide back and chest, and a pretty decent sized neck, having so much trouble putting on mass on my arms. Been hitting triceps with nucleus overload for a few weeks consistently, I see my arms getting more cut up but no size increase at all. When I up my calories the weight doesnt go to my arms but to my chest and back area. Its a little discouraging, I know Im doing something wrong but dont know what.
Are you Asian? Plus nucleus overload should be lower intensity RPE 7~ Protip, never use a phone camera to assess your size. Mirrors are the most accurate in every way except the reflection is flipped
Just got Naturally enhanced and I'm looking forward to it. Been lifting for a year today and numbers are fucking low. 6"3 150lbs and I'm skinny with legit barely any fat on me. See you in months
Jabb Throne currently eating 2800 calories right now compared to barely 2000 before but I'll see if I need to increase edit: I was 115lbs when I started a year ago but now for the last 3 months haven't moved in weight
I was at 5-6k calories when bulking at 5’10”. Stop being a little b*tch and just eat more or give up on the idea of being thicker, beefier, and jacked. Your weight gain is pathetic. We live in the fattest age of all time and u can’t gain weight??? Make some fat friends. You are playing fortnite instead of snacking/ eating.
This makes perfect sense my upper body looks great in large shirts however my forearms are lacking I use this technique to work on my weak points all the time.
I just thought of a pic I have of me and my daughter.. I put it on the other day and it is so much smaller on me now. I never wear it so it didn't shrink. Great topic as always.
Really the brand makes all the difference. You could fit well with a Nike t-shirt but then that changes completely with cheap store t shirts. Also the fit type. Slim fit is the way to go really
It's funny because a lot of shirt companies, especially in the fitness industry, make their shirt sizes quite a bit smaller in some cases than what their size is labelled to be. Like, I'm a medium dude myself, especially when it comes to conventional clothing you'd find at a store, but I can easily wear a handful of large shirts I find on some supplement sites. Like, some of the shit is hard to take off post-workout. Not that I'm complaining, it feels pretty alpha sporting tight large's, oofies.
It adds a false sense of how big you really are, especially when it comes to inevitibely wearing convention store-bought shirts again; you can't just wear gym attire 'till the day you die, y'know. :D
Only problem with this is how different companies desire to Taylor there clothing compared to others, I know for me that an XL in under armour fits me better than an XL for Nike atleast in shorts when the pair are almost identical
If you get fat you can wear a bigger size easily and shirts differ with every brand(different fabric, different cut etc.). So I still prefer taking a look at your shirtless body in the mirror to recognize your strengths and weaknesses.
Truth, I have to specifically have to buy pants +5 size because my calves and legs cannot fit even if my pants waist is still loose. Best way is to get stuff tailored.
Trolln Yall have you tried pants with elastane in them? They have been a life saver for me. I’m a 29 waist but I used to have to buy 34 so my legs wouldn’t split my pants. Now as long as the pants have some stretch, I can get 30’s and I’m good to go
i am 1.72 , my arms are 35cm , the S size doesnt fit on my arms on some stuff so if i am tryn to buy M, that thing will be long and big on belly #pls make shorter t shirts
Spot on, I was filling out medium shirts more so in my arms and chest and have always had broad shoulders, probably last 4 years I have been a medium, I am 20 now and this past year and a half I did a solid lean bulk and cut and put on 6-7 pounds of muscles mostly widening my back and and increasing shoulder and trap size and now I fill out a large shirt and look allot larger when filling out a large vs a medium shirt. I quit the bullshit and went to training heavy compounds to add size. Best choice of my life, love the content bro!
your torso is too long so when you tuck the shirt in your beltline doesn't match the slim part of the shirt and it ends up looking like a bubble. You need custom made longer shirts
Zak Field muscles get thicker not wider. Biceps and brachialis- grow em. Or keep your arms permanently pinned into your lats like in an arm blaster sling.
I'm happy to have subbed to your channel Alex. You are the FIRST person to cover this subject and I personally, use the t-shirt sizes for THIS EXACT reason! I currently rock a "Medium". I just re-started my gym training after major back surgery. I'm 5'7.5, 170 lbs. I like a 3/4 sleeve so it covers my arms, but still allows me to see the outline of my triceps, the shoulders for nice and snug, the waist area is loose (31") but the neck/traps area needs work. Lol. In my peak form of 186 lbs and 8% BFP, I can "stuff" a LARGE size and that is the goal I'm working towards! Watching your videos and reconstructing my regiment, I have more focus on growing: legs, back, neck and upper traps. My (triceps) arms and shoulders grow really fast, without much effort. I like the fact that you brought this to light and I'm not the only person using shirt sizes as progress gauges! I also do the same with pants. 💪⚡⚡
Alex i kinda disagree with you on the "numbers are real" and the "shirts telling you about lagging areas", because most clothes(that are brand name) for men, are made for the ideal men in those sizes, ie. models who are usually above 6'0 tall, in ALL of those different sizes(S,M, L etc.), and NOT the general population of men, where the average height is 5'10 something.
i wear 3XL, sometimes 4XL zero fucks given i think it looks fucking sick. besides the forearms, upper back, traps and neck don't lie, no matter the size of the shirt, its my style i love them baggy as fuck
Me and my friend are using the shirt sizes to measure our gains. I personally have a shirt that's one size larger and my goal is to fill it up with muscles. Good to know that we're not the only one.
currently 180 pounds and medium shirt. I've fluctuated and re-comped between 170-180 the past couple years, weight loss mostly due to physically demanding jobs. Also a couple years ago I wanted to fill out a large and thought I'd have to weigh 200 to do that, which I'm probably right about. As a natural that is a few years away, it could happen, however I'm focusing on strength. If or when I ever can't fit a medium I'll go up a size and be stronger and heavier then.
I don’t understand how you can go up on shirt size without getting taller? I mean I used to wear small but now wear medium, fits well but some brands are very tight. While hopefully my upper body can grow and make the medium too small, a large would be way too long and I don’t see how that changes aside from getting custom shirts.
I went from snug XS to tight Large. Body Thickness around pecs, lats, traps, delts causes the close to drape over u more. Like a huge butt shortens a girls skirt. Often shirts are too short for me ( when they would have been long before) because im thicker than a snickers now
My work shirts dimensions are wrong. The neck is way too small. I had to restitch the top button but neck has grown again and it’s now choking me. I’m 5’10 with an 18” neck 17” biceps (flexed) and 15stone. I wear between medium and XL shirts! At work I have to wear a clip on tie so can’t just unbutton top button. Tried collar extenders but it just moves tie just off centre. If I wear the 18” shirt the shoulder seem falls off my shoulders like I’m wearing a tent. So I have to stop doing neck flexion/extension harness work/look like the collar is strangling me or just not wear the tie or get another job! I can’t wear bigger shirt as I can’t move my shoulder dimensions as surgery isn’t an option and 5 days of heavy side laterals won’t fill it. Just bought 4 shirts on line and used my measurements and they all don’t fit! (Couldn’t try them on) Fucking shirt sizes 🙄😢
Unfortunately I have narrow upper body. I think short clavicles. 😢. Few people have pointed this out. But my back is really wide from my history of weighted pull-ups. I'll have to train a lot of side delts to fix this.
Echo 4 Whiskey The thing is I'm following a strict powerlifting program from my coach. My plan is to do very high volume side raises everyday to get the nucleus overload. I choose side raises because side delts can handle crazy amount of volume and it's not taxing my recovery significantly.
Lol it’s different for every brand. Talking about shirt sizes is pointless because there are small t shirts that are legit too big and large t shirts that fit nice and snug. The best way to know you’re big is when people look at you in public and tell you that you’re big
Didn't discuss the letters homie, obviously the cuts vary. Just talked about the proportions and how you can use the shirt to assess progress. Also addressed the snug thing at the end.
I despise how loose the neck hole is in most Tshirts. I want a shirt to hug my neck like it does my arms. Most Tshirt necks are like a goddamn wishing well..
Winter most of my tops are extra large cover myself up so no one can see what I look like or they feel really comfortable baggy on me what does that tell me about my body shape
I wore medium till i bulked and then i cut. But the size maintained and now the mediums are so toght i cam move properly. Bought large shirts and they feel so comfortable.
For people like you it doesn’t really matter (unless you’re wearing a puffy winter jacket) cause your physique is very noticeable even in thick clothing.
What if you're like me. Xl fits me pretty perfect but then when i wash it, it fits me short and tight. Then 2xl fits me pretty damn big but then when washed fits me good tight from chest and back but just super long or baggy from the stomach area.
This is exactly why I wear plaid long sleeves or sweaters when I go out. It's not that I have a bad physique, it's just that it makes me less obsessed with how I look and how other people see me. A few years ago, I used to be obsessed with what kind of t shirts I should wear to make me look like my size or "if I would look too small in this shirt or too tight on that shirt or do my arms look too skinny in this one." But now it doesn't even come to mind to me anymore since the apparel I wear now changed dramatically from what I wore a few years ago.
Alphadestiny you’re half right. Shirt sizes vary in sizes, I can wear small to large, so I don’t care about individual size. On a side note, opinion on compression shirts/pants? You’re lean but have optimised compression gear. You should look into it.
Yo alex, I'm a dude going out a lot meeting women. I was gonna do a bulk eating 200 calories over maintenance, but it never fails my face bloats instantly. It discourages me from bulking Bc I look way better with a trim face. Any advice brother? Can't grow a beard btw Bc of job
bruh your face is not gonna bloat substantially from 200 calories lol. It's all in your head m8. You're thinking that because you're over maintenance you're gonna be fat and girls will notice but it doesn't work like that at all. Just get out of your head ez
Witch gave some good advice. Also, consider using minoxidal 5% if you want to grow your beard or even my natural beard oil since the peppermint may help. Also drink a lot of water to reduce water retention, and eat clean! Dress well, be confident, and get in there homie
It looks awesome, and the beard should be the last thing to go. Not a respectable recommendation to make, especially to a man who respects his masculinity.
callum possibly your dexa was off. How long were you training to get 20 inch biceps bro? Arnold at his biggest claimed 22, and you don't really compare naturals to Arnold at least not for most people.
I actually see it like "leveling up" I often doubt my success and put myself down but things like shirts, are a good reminder to me that I am actually successful.
You should listen to Philbert Matthews. Shirts from the kids section are where the best sizes can be found for lifters
In size mediums I look jacked AF, in size large do I even lift?
anab0lic same bro
Lol same. I wear skinny fit medium size t shirts and the compliments just keep coming all day
Same, except one size up. Larges are tight, XL is dyel status.
In size small I looked jacked af. In mediums do I even lift??
I'm 5'8 140 btw.
Why underwear size matters
This is the most alphadestiny video ever
Alexander Leonidas,the man who knows how to talk with a shirt
The thing is i ould be wearing a small a medium or a large and still look the same cause they are different brands
PMGTBM that for sure medium sometimes and xl sometimes its crazy.
The hair's getting closer to viking status
Yo Alex I know you are growing your beard and much respect for rocking the homeless Viking look, but a simple trim while keeping the length is a really worthy investment to make your jaw look stronger. It wont set you back more than two weeks of beard growth but it will maintain the shape for much longer.
Syed Abood lmai
I know it would look better but I simply don't care anymore even if it makes me look worse. I have specific reasons for doing what I'm doing. I may trim in the future but not at this moment.
AlphaDestiny much respect. Keep at it then, you do you fam.
Shirt size highlights a guy's
1. Shoulders
2. Back
3. Arms
4. Chest
5. Abdominals
So basically his whole upper body lol
I wear shirts too big for me so they last longer, Im 15 btw so yea I need it.
If you're still growing in height then that's a good strategy. I used to do that around the age of 10-13. At 13 I just stopped growing so it became unneeded.
you should also consider the cut of the shirt, theres a difference between fitted, normal and oversized even if its the same size in the label
Shirt size matters most when everyone who looks at you in your shirt points and laughs and you don't know why.
Measuring progress with a shirt is what my grandfather used to do back in the day
Not to mention the differences in brand names. I try to be mindful of how certain brands fit, look,and feel. Then I can capitalize
Definitely bro. The cut/brand must be factored in.
AlphaDestiny , how people shop online is a gamble. Unless you know your brand and size.
Oh yes it's a huge gamble. I've found some nice clothes online but the cuts are usually very off. Buying in person is the best
510 190 lean xxl shirt size i can fit in xl but xxl fits a little better.
Lol at all the comment asking him to cute his hair while he said like 20 times he want them long. And after that they will say they are OG sub =)
Nice video btw, good points and smart thinking
Haha it's all good, not everyone watches the weekly Q&As :P
Glad you enjoyed this segment brother.

Are you Asian? Plus nucleus overload should be lower intensity RPE 7~
Protip, never use a phone camera to assess your size. Mirrors are the most accurate in every way except the reflection is flipped
JA The Emcee [JTM] Mike mentzer heavy duty training will help
High rep high intensity, put more emphasis on the long head.
Can you make good gains on 75-100g of protein per day?
Thumbs up the question so he sees it
Yes, but I wouldn't consider that optimal. 0.8g of protein per pound of bodyweight is where it's at.
Just got Naturally enhanced and I'm looking forward to it.
Been lifting for a year today and numbers are fucking low.
6"3 150lbs and I'm skinny with legit barely any fat on me. See you in months
Jabb Throne currently eating 2800 calories right now compared to barely 2000 before but I'll see if I need to increase

We live in the fattest age of all time and u can’t gain weight??? Make some fat friends. You are playing fortnite instead of snacking/ eating.
You need a novice program.. not fucking naturally enhanced bro
milk is cheap protein any recommendations?
From cholo to classy looking bear
This makes perfect sense my upper body looks great in large shirts however my forearms are lacking I use this technique to work on my weak points all the time.
I just thought of a pic I have of me and my daughter.. I put it on the other day and it is so much smaller on me now. I never wear it so it didn't shrink. Great topic as always.
Awesome Tom!! Making those comparisons is always the best :)
Is it just me or does his hair grow fast af?
Irfan Arif
It think he still uses minoxidil
DxtEppieDoe no
And its only used for facial hair anyways
aria t
That's not how it works
DxtEppieDoe how does it work
aria t
Look it up or ask your doctor
Really the brand makes all the difference. You could fit well with a Nike t-shirt but then that changes completely with cheap store t shirts. Also the fit type. Slim fit is the way to go really
for sure bro, brand/cut is key
It's funny because a lot of shirt companies, especially in the fitness industry, make their shirt sizes quite a bit smaller in some cases than what their size is labelled to be. Like, I'm a medium dude myself, especially when it comes to conventional clothing you'd find at a store, but I can easily wear a handful of large shirts I find on some supplement sites. Like, some of the shit is hard to take off post-workout.
Not that I'm complaining, it feels pretty alpha sporting tight large's, oofies.
Haha that's true! Sometimes you can go two sizes up. The companies are taking advantage of body dysmorphia :P
Dig it though
It adds a false sense of how big you really are, especially when it comes to inevitibely wearing convention store-bought shirts again; you can't just wear gym attire 'till the day you die, y'know. :D
Only problem with this is how different companies desire to Taylor there clothing compared to others, I know for me that an XL in under armour fits me better than an XL for Nike atleast in shorts when the pair are almost identical
Indeed
"tailor" you fucking idiot....
It can make you from looking like a non lifter to muscular
You look like the Mexican guy that plays Hector in every movie with your head shaved wearing plaid in the thumbnail.
lmao hectorr
I wish I had child bearing clavicles.
L M A O !
If you get fat you can wear a bigger size easily and shirts differ with every brand(different fabric, different cut etc.). So I still prefer taking a look at your shirtless body in the mirror to recognize your strengths and weaknesses.
This really opened my eyes to what I should improve on. Thank you Alex!
Happy to help!
I know I made gains when I managed to drop 2 pant sizes but I still ripped my prom dress trying to fit it over my shoulders
sharpie 179 yes
thats pretty hot lmao
Or a measuring tape would help haha!
Haha yes!
Lol I honestly cant for my first bulk. Gonna be fuckin awesome. Almost done with the cutting 💪🏽. Great vid btw
I like the hair and beard. Lookin like John wick
Truth, I have to specifically have to buy pants +5 size because my calves and legs cannot fit even if my pants waist is still loose. Best way is to get stuff tailored.
Trolln Yall have you tried pants with elastane in them? They have been a life saver for me. I’m a 29 waist but I used to have to buy 34 so my legs wouldn’t split my pants. Now as long as the pants have some stretch, I can get 30’s and I’m good to go
Jacob Graham sounds like good advice thanks
Trolln Yall no worries mate, I know the struggle haha
me too especially when start riding my bicycle for a month or two
Levi's athletic fit works well for me
having less hair makes you also more jacked.
thehiatusprt
:)))
thehiatusprt only if you are lean
*The hair is looking badass*
Haha in thumb nail you look like a mexican gangster named Beto
Ricardo Iniguez he looks like a mexican chulo named leti
greveeen he looks like my mexican uncle lalo😭
Haircuts and beard facial matters more 100%.
i am 1.72 , my arms are 35cm , the S size doesnt fit on my arms on some stuff so if i am tryn to buy M, that thing will be long and big on belly #pls make shorter t shirts
Spot on, I was filling out medium shirts more so in my arms and chest and have always had broad shoulders, probably last 4 years I have been a medium, I am 20 now and this past year and a half I did a solid lean bulk and cut and put on 6-7 pounds of muscles mostly widening my back and and increasing shoulder and trap size and now I fill out a large shirt and look allot larger when filling out a large vs a medium shirt. I quit the bullshit and went to training heavy compounds to add size. Best choice of my life, love the content bro!
Looking like a pyramid with those traps bro :D
I thought this says "Why shit size matters". As in bowel movements
On point with the objective approach using the shirt size as a tool. I use that as well to gauge where I'm at.
Narrow waist crew checking in! I'm not even lean! I have a hard time finding shirts that are not loose in that area
your torso is too long so when you tuck the shirt in your beltline doesn't match the slim part of the shirt and it ends up looking like a bubble. You need custom made longer shirts
I have long legs and short torso! And I was talking about tee shirts! I rarely wear shirts
Alpha Destiny PLEASE make a video talking about how to get wider biceps. it's a problem I have and I see a lot and we want your opinion💪💪
Zak Field muscles get thicker not wider. Biceps and brachialis- grow em. Or keep your arms permanently pinned into your lats like in an arm blaster sling.
I wear size Large, but its tight around the arms
Nice bro

Are you using “rules of thirds” for your thumbnail alex?
I try to use rule of thirds when I can
i wear 3XL, sometimes 4XL zero fucks given i think it looks fucking sick. besides the forearms, upper back, traps and neck don't lie, no matter the size of the shirt, its my style i love them baggy as fuck
Me and my friend are using the shirt sizes to measure our gains. I personally have a shirt that's one size larger and my goal is to fill it up with muscles. Good to know that we're not the only one.

That pipe cleaner reference 👌🏽 🤣
Bruh...
I don’t understand how you can go up on shirt size without getting taller?
I mean I used to wear small but now wear medium, fits well but some brands are very tight.
While hopefully my upper body can grow and make the medium too small, a large would be way too long and I don’t see how that changes aside from getting custom shirts.
Honestly agree and never understood how people go up more than two sizes
I went from snug XS to tight Large. Body Thickness around pecs, lats, traps, delts causes the close to drape over u more. Like a huge butt shortens a girls skirt. Often shirts are too short for me ( when they would have been long before) because im thicker than a snickers now
Haircut time
I can fit every body part in LG shirts but I look small.
I have pigeon chest so it's a lil tricky
My work shirts dimensions are wrong. The neck is way too small. I had to restitch the top button but neck has grown again and it’s now choking me.
I’m 5’10 with an 18” neck 17” biceps (flexed) and 15stone. I wear between medium and XL shirts! At work I have to wear a clip on tie so can’t just unbutton top button.

Just bought 4 shirts on line and used my measurements and they all don’t fit! (Couldn’t try them on)
Fucking shirt sizes 🙄😢
Get your uniform tailored in the same design. It will fit you well and I doubt your boss would care. :)
Unfortunately I have narrow upper body. I think short clavicles. 😢. Few people have pointed this out. But my back is really wide from my history of weighted pull-ups. I'll have to train a lot of side delts to fix this.
I think you would greatly benefit from doing pin presses and alternating the pin height weekly.
Echo 4 Whiskey The thing is I'm following a strict powerlifting program from my coach. My plan is to do very high volume side raises everyday to get the nucleus overload. I choose side raises because side delts can handle crazy amount of volume and it's not taxing my recovery significantly.
Great point, high volume is great for shoulders, I'm guessing with powerlifting you do your heavy intensity work benching.
You can't change your bone structure.
I expect he knows you can't change your bone structure. Presumably he wants bigger delts to look wider.
Lol it’s different for every brand. Talking about shirt sizes is pointless because there are small t shirts that are legit too big and large t shirts that fit nice and snug. The best way to know you’re big is when people look at you in public and tell you that you’re big
Didn't discuss the letters homie, obviously the cuts vary. Just talked about the proportions and how you can use the shirt to assess progress. Also addressed the snug thing at the end.
Everyones saying cut the hair, I say fuckem! It looks great man💪
Oh, I miss the gym
Small crew checking in.
Yo here we are. What do? Move to M size with good muscle mass and little fat? Will take years for me
Brother, i’ll pay for your barber if you want. Great vid
With that hair you look like the BULKED version of Captain America. It would be cool if you cosplayed.
Haha that would be fun
I despise how loose the neck hole is in most Tshirts. I want a shirt to hug my neck like it does my arms. Most Tshirt necks are like a goddamn wishing well..
I think tha shaved head fits you well man
wild philbert matthews appearance
I usually buy xxl red shirts, cut the neck, sleeves and bottom, and it ends up looking like a boatneck sleeveless croptop that fits me just right...
It will never be tight anywhere, but it looks good on me...
Rex Erection just imagine a shirt someone from a glam metal band would wear... It looks good enough on me to atract both boys and girls ñ_ñ
Winter most of my tops are extra large cover myself up so no one can see what I look like or they feel really comfortable baggy on me
what does that tell me about my body shape
Excellent video idea, great info that no one else puts out. Standard Alex
Just wear a sweater and hide all shame
Stark nah bro. We are all going to make it.
Looks badass too
Blanket > Sweater
I wore medium till i bulked and then i cut. But the size maintained and now the mediums are so toght i cam move properly. Bought large shirts and they feel so comfortable.
I often use how much my shirts and even pants fit as indicators of progress. In addition to weight and other measurements.
dude you look way better/more jacked with a shaved head and trimmed beard
You look just like Stanley Kubrick.
Cheers
What do you focus on if you're naturally narrow
Lats
Yup , lats and shoulders
delts
For people like you it doesn’t really matter (unless you’re wearing a puffy winter jacket) cause your physique is very noticeable even in thick clothing.
Alex I have an important question:
How many times/days per week do you train overall.
You say you do full body 2 times a week but is that all you do.
Tyler's Headmeat if you don't mind can you tell me what kind of gpp he is doing
He trains 2 times full body in gym and 2 mini home workouts.
nsht Boxing rounds /Cardio/sled pulls and shit
nsht i think he does the gpp with his sandbag, sandbag lunges, pushpresses, curls etc. For high reps
Boxing is part of his GPP as well, i think
What if you're like me. Xl fits me pretty perfect but then when i wash it, it fits me short and tight. Then 2xl fits me pretty damn big but then when washed fits me good tight from chest and back but just super long or baggy from the stomach area.
What about XXXL size?
Alien T that would be huge.
Viking haircut and beard ?
This is exactly why I wear plaid long sleeves or sweaters when I go out.
It's not that I have a bad physique, it's just that it makes me less obsessed with how I look and how other people see me.
A few years ago, I used to be obsessed with what kind of t shirts I should wear to make me look like my size or "if I would look too small in this shirt or too tight on that shirt or do my arms look too skinny in this one."
But now it doesn't even come to mind to me anymore since the apparel I wear now changed dramatically from what I wore a few years ago.
Alphadestiny you’re half right. Shirt sizes vary in sizes, I can wear small to large, so I don’t care about individual size. On a side note, opinion on compression shirts/pants? You’re lean but have optimised compression gear. You should look into it.
Yo alex, I'm a dude going out a lot meeting women. I was gonna do a bulk eating 200 calories over maintenance, but it never fails my face bloats instantly. It discourages me from bulking Bc I look way better with a trim face. Any advice brother? Can't grow a beard btw Bc of job
P Will grow your neck it will offset chubbyness of cheeks or bloat
bruh your face is not gonna bloat substantially from 200 calories lol. It's all in your head m8. You're thinking that because you're over maintenance you're gonna be fat and girls will notice but it doesn't work like that at all. Just get out of your head ez
You are definitely overthinking
Witch gave some good advice. Also, consider using minoxidal 5% if you want to grow your beard or even my natural beard oil since the peppermint may help. Also drink a lot of water to reduce water retention, and eat clean! Dress well, be confident, and get in there homie
witchcrafteR you'd be surprised
Alex get a haircut and trim your beard, you look homeless bro. Still love you
let him trim the beard at least then lol
GD30MA You forget to add no homo
He can do what he wants don’t tell him what to do
It looks terrible.
It looks awesome, and the beard should be the last thing to go. Not a respectable recommendation to make, especially to a man who respects his masculinity.
youll never have hugging sleeves on your arms wearing xxl unless you are 30% bodyfat. Or taking some juice. Or wear some asian measurement shirts.
Ago i guess it depends on the fit of the shirt, no?
would need to be on gear for that though like AGO said
callum possibly your dexa was off. How long were you training to get 20 inch biceps bro? Arnold at his biggest claimed 22, and you don't really compare naturals to Arnold at least not for most people.
im over here not fitting a small...
roddy register bruh
I actually see it like "leveling up" I often doubt my success and put myself down but things like shirts, are a good reminder to me that I am actually successful.
Growing my hair too, try out brushing it all back :)
Alexander Demergis same here. I'm going full Infinity war Captain America style.
u look like Wolverine now Alex
Any tips for short torso guys? Clothes fit snug but too long
He looks like the shot caller of a skinhead prison gang in the thumbnail
TLDR what shirt size should I wear
