I'm have a delimma. I'm 6'1 and I weigh about 140 pounds, before you assume that I'm a skeleton, listen. I have no muscle my arms and legs are twigs but I have a fat stomach and man boobs with an average face. I'm very much skinnyfat.
>I'm trying to get a body like pic related
so should I cut to super skelly then do what Christian Bale did from the machinest to batman begins?
>>36278728
What Christian Bale did worked because he had been semi-muscular before, had dieticians and trainers, and used steroids.
Just read the sticky, pick a program, and lift. After you build a base, you can cut.
>>36278728
What Chris did was steroids, so fucking no.
Eat, train, sleep, read the sticky. Even if it take you a whole day, read the whole fucking thing. You wont regret it.

I think Bale was ~190 at 6'0 in that film, that's achievable naturally.
>6'1
>140
eat more fucking food, jesus christ
>>36279585
He put on 100 pounds in 6 months, and it wasn't all fat. This is not achievable natty, especially if you haven't been muscular before. It's a lot more plausible to lose and gain back quickly than it is to gain the first time.
Don't use Hollywood for your fitness aspirations, at least in terms of methods.
>>36278728
Additionally, if you're skinnyfat at 140 pounds at your height, you have almost zero lean mass. And you're also not as fat as you think; again, you just have no fucking muscle. You need to lift, first and foremost. You can cut in a year or so.

He had to lose a lot of what he'd added though (he overshot), at his final weight he was about 190 I think. I wouldn't use his methods or expect his exact results, it's more so that I think his physique is reachable naturally.
I'm not OP, and in answer to his question I wouldn't think there's an advantage to reaching very low bf% before you start - if anything the weight might look normal when there's more muscle.
>>36278728
"i have no muscle my arms" sorry you will never get that physique
>>36278728
You're starting basically where I started eat big and train you'll be fine if you stick with it no shortcuts
>>36279820
Well of course it's achievable natty; we're trying to prevent the OP from thinking he can do the same in 6 months like Bale did.
Bale bulked from 120 to 220, then cut to 200 for the film. He wasn't as big in the following flicks.
>>36279843
No cut?
>>36278728
>Should I lose weight at 6'1 140 pounds
It should be a bannable offense to ask the dumbest fucking questions like these. My 5'9 friend was skinny as fuck at 140 pounds.
>>36278728
Post a picture OP

OP Here, and here is a front view.
>>36280537
OP, you don't have shit to cut. If you lose weight right now, it's just gonna make it harder to build muscle.
Just get on a program, lift with discipline, and eat a healthy diet.
God damn you're making 1+2 into differential calculus.
Is there a general rule about this - like don't worry about fat levels until you're no longer underweight by BMI?
>>36280581
How many calories would you recommend? Or should I just eat every 2 hours?

If you want a body like christian bale just eat 4k calories a day
You might get fatter at first but eventually that fat will be burned in favor of gains
>>36280630
Is this just some low tier bait? Fuck, I took it.
If for real, see >>36280649
>>36280630
3,000 KCAL if you're going to actually lift.
