Are you lifting for strength or aesthetics?

You'll look better with strength training, i.e. like the dude on the left. Thicker neck, bigger traps make you look manlier and robust altogether. It's a win/win situation anyway. You don't need to be shredded, you just need to be thick at 13-16% bf, that's ideal.

>>36921322

>implying that JPS wasn't aesthetic as fuck

he was a fairly lean, blonde prettyboy that was like 195cm tall
>>
as of now im lifting for aesthetics because i was never lean enough in my whole life and i've got fucked up spine so i can deadlift or squat and no one cares about your strength if you can't do 50% of basic lifts

lifting for aesthetics looks nice but it's pointless after the age of ~25 (college years done).

after that, unless you compete, it is more practical to go husbando/70s-big mode.

>inb4 fat powerlifter

12-15% bf with a lot of muscle mass is more practical, easier to maintain, better for health, and looks good to normies. nobody can prove me wrong

Is that possible natty?

>>36921289
I just want to be big and strong. Maybe try to get abs at one point in time
>>
>>36921546
This.
He was probably the most aesthetic strongman ever.
>>
>>36921289
I just push myself in whatever I feel like doing. If i wanna be lean I try to get as lean as I can, if I want to look thick I try to get as thick as I want. That's why I like lifting, I can keep manipulating my body and trying different lifting styles. I know I'll never be perfect, so I do what I want
