Thread 76510320

Age: 40
Main problem area pictured
Skin: Loose from previously losing 20 kilos and largely unrepairable
Stats -182 cm 84 kilos


According to a volt scan and chatgpt 4 kilos off this frame would be approaching 12%

Look like shit

I’m 33 and I look worse than you so no don’t give up, I’m trying to cut right now maybe I’ll look better

>>76510335
You've got lower abs and more veins brah, we have similar physique's though what is your way goign forward? I honestly don't know what to do at this point if I lose weight I'll just look more like you I guess your chest looks heaps better

>>76510341
If I were you I would spam more upper volume and lower the leg volume and start eating no more than 2300 calories for a month while doing cardio everyday, you are not far from having a good physique just keep at it, most 40 males I know are fat af

>>76510320 (OP)
build muscle to fill the loose skin ;)

>>76510347
Is a good physique actually possible is what I wonder? This photo is apprently me at 14-16% even chatgpt thinks so and I am fucking hideous

>>76510371
Heard that one before. I am 40 mate, so do a cycle...

>>76510405
>I'm 40
not to old to build muscle

>>76510404
You're more like 20% and you shouldn't listen to chatgpt too much without realizing it's half retarded. Just do some cardio every day and eat healthy foods. Maintain your weight with a good macro balance with like 180-220g protein a day and do a push pull legs split twice a week if you can, or once a week with more sets. Go to failure at least twice (real failure) per muscle group and use machines so you dont fuck anything up. You're 40 so hopping on trt is fine if youre done having kids and I'd try to get a doctor that will be alright with you being in the 700+ ng/dl range.

>>76510422
>You're more like 20%
If that's 20 what is this >>76510335 ?

>>76510426
Id say like 16 or 17% but it's just eyeballing. You're kind of flexing your abs weird lol

>>76510426
probably also 20. same bodyfat percentage can and will look different on different bodies. op has stretch marks from being pregnant. he will never look good, even with a "low" bodyfat, his gut area will look soft and wobbly because its not tight.

also the whole discussion of "what arbitrary bodyfat% am i" should be fucking nuked. if you want to have abs, and you are 6% bodyfat, but you dont have visible abs, what are you gonna do? cut more? and if you have ripped 6 pack abs, but you are 25% bodyfat, what are you gonna do? IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT IMAGINARY NUMBER YOU ATTACH TO YOUR PHYSIQUE. ONLY THE IMAGE ON MIRROR MATTERS. IF YOUR GOAL IS X AND THE MIRROR SHOWS X, THEN YOU ARE DONE.

IF YOU WANT TO BE LEANER, AND YOU DONT LOOK LEAN, THEN YOU NEED TO KEEP CUTTING. IT IS IRRELEVANT WHAT YOUR BODYFAT IS

>>76510418
No, but it is too old to have decent muscle AND low bf%. Nature gives and nature takes, at 40 it gives you flab and has already taken away ~20% of your test levels.

>>76510456
I'm 43

>>76510320 (OP)
You're like 25%bf. You've to get rid of at least 10kg of fat to get around 12%bf. Stop being a pussy and lift weight. Im 37 and have archieved an aesthetic body in 5 months, starting more or less where you are right now.

>>76510456
Yeah this. I'm not gaining muscle. I'm declining I use to bench 90 kilos for reps and now it's 80 kilos for 4 reps. The just fill it out with muscle thing ignores the fact I am in a calorie deficit to lean out and 40.

>>76510488
You retard.

>>76510464
Can relate, I'm 44. Stomach fat is a huge hassle.

>>76510511
I already have no kids and no girlfriend, so taking test might affect my sperm but doubtful it's gonna get used anyway

>>76510341
Lift more weights you fucking moron. How are you 40 and this fucking retarded? Yeah, never mind, go ahead and rope kek.

>>76510513
At trt doses the fertilty suppression is not too bad, you can still knock a bitch up while on test. I plan on using 120-150mg test per week myself. You can also freeze some before you get on.

>>76510488
Samefag. All this +30yo doomposting is ridiculous, like retards think you get hypogonadic after 30 and your test crashes forever. I'm near 40 and I bet my test is higher than 99% of 20yo. It all comes to lifestyle choices, lift to failure, eat clean, eat enough protein, sleep, your test will go back to your early 20s levels.
>>76510503
How am I a retard for telling the truth? You're trusting bf% from a random business image. Left pic is probably +25%bf, right pic is around 18%bf. 99% of people overestimate how lean they are. For reference, I'm around 13%bf, so compare my pic to yours and tell me if he is 14%bf or not.

>>76510573
You should stop being a retard and realize you might just be genetically lucky and shouldn't assume your case is that of an average person. You sure do sound like a fucking annoying kid though so your assumption about your test levels might be true

>>76510573
23/04 mogs imo

>>76510606
You sound like a pussy that would rather be a failure for the rest of his life than try to push hard even once. Muh genetics is cope for lazy fucks that haven't lifted a single set to failure in their whole life and don't have the willpower to go to the gym, track their macros, eat clean and have good sleep.

>>76510320 (OP)
Brother just keep lifting I don't see a problem here and you might want to cut a bit more

>>76510442
I just wanna reach this bf% i had in 2022, i don't know i think i was 14% there? But the problem is that i was heavier, should i bulk for the muscle memory then cut or shred then build up again? I was 76 in that pic and now im fatter at 75kg for some reason

>>76510335
>look worse
This is kind of what I'm aiming for, except more defined. You're mentally ill.

>>76510677
>This is kind of what I'm aiming for,
Why would you aim for a mid physique lol

>>76510320 (OP)
Build a Time Machine and don’t get fat? Or test cycle then a break then a test and deca cycle.

>>76510621
>balding
>mad
Lol you literally have to make shit up about someone online you've never met to feel justified. Meanwhile we can all see your "progress" pics of someone over the hill and trying their hardest to meme it like you're just now at your peak.
Don't worry bro you'll someday mature out of the teenage angst and be a better person, maybe.

>>76510698
I do long distance cardio, I want to be toned.

>>76510698
I do long distance cardio, I just want to be toned. Miss me with all that dyel or "being huge" bullshit

>>76510802
Im not balding, Im bald. Also, aren't you the retard who first replied with "Retard" and a business bodyfat fake pic? Very mature on your part.

>>76510884
Nope. I'm not. Enjoy the rest of your life alone. So sad. Stay mad.
