Annoyed? Perhaps mildly annoyed.
There are so many more important things to get annoyed over (to say the least) than what the God-almighty media has to say about a celeb’s physical condition.
It doesn’t change a thing I’m doing in the gym or in the kitchen. In fact, if you hadn’t posted this, I’d never have known what the press said about a guy I had no idea who he was.
If that was his “before” picture in the shot that Strungoutboy21 posted, then I have to give his guy some credit. He’s obviously been exercising really hard as well as dieting, or he’d be soft-skinny instead of lean skinny. That puts him way ahead of Subway Jared, IMO.
It could be this person just overshot the mark and he’s now going to gain some lean mass. Maybe he was trying to hit a certain weight class for some sport? Then again, maybe I’m being overly-generous with giving him the benefit of the doubt.
So you post a pic of an actor/musician on a site with regular weight lifters with the purpose of bashing his physique because it doesn’t match up to members on this site ?
Or was your post aimed at bashing the media for spilling propaganda ?
Sure he’s relatively skinny and could improve on his shoulders, chest, lats, etc …but why should he ?
He is being compared to the average population, not “hardcore” weight lifters. Believe it or not but you are the minority.
its not hard to stay that lean for everybody. I eat fast food several times a week, do no cardio, eat as much as possible as I’m trying to put on weight, and I still have a visible six pack while relaxed. I do absolutely nothing in the pursuit of leanness, but I can’t help it.

You are wrong, there are a handful of hardcore lifters here. If you compare his physique to the majority of posters he is well ahead. Many on here like to bash people for fun when they themselves look like, wait for it…shit.

And if I had a 9" dick and a 100mph fast ball I’d be the only MLB/pornstar in the world… but who really gives a shit about, or is impressed by, our ego-massaging ‘ifs’?

I’d love to see the media headlines for you MLB porn league hahaha. Think Seattle could draft Audrey Bitoni?

Until you have pics of yourself up, you can promptly STFU. The judging of other posters is reserved for those that have themselves out there to be judged.

Thank you, and have a nice day.

I just had a funny image of counting using his calculator knuckles to make EvanX “promptly STFU”.
he just looks dehydrated to me…like a wrestler or fighter after a week of manipulating sodium and hydration levels to make weight before the fight. give him just a few weeks of NORMAL eats and hydrating and he’ll balloon back. He’s got NOTHING on what Gerard Butler did for 300.

I just peeked back at my OP to make sure I was seeing what I thought I saw.
Apparently, today’s definition of muscular in the media, and apparently some of the vocals on this bodybuilding site is “ability to see muscles”. So, to be ‘muscular’, one should be emaciated skinny. Got it.
What a slap in the face to guys like “Mighty Stu” (IMO) who actually build muscle then diet down to ‘anatomy model’ conditioning and actually look ‘muscular’.
This kid, while skinny and ‘in shape’, is not ‘muscular’.
However, I agree-- he looks faaaabulous for a skinny kid.
Is he a MAN? What is the body of a MAN meant for? Could this type of body really perform manly functions? What if he had to push a car? Save his wife by pulling her up a cliff? could he pick up a large stone and drop it on an animal to create dinner?
A mans body is utilitarian, this physique is far from that. Further more, if you compared him to what a successful hunter/gatherer caveman looked like, he’d look like a skeleton in comparison.

Wrong, bro. In modern times aesthetics are all that matter. Instead of picking up stones and pulling people off cliffs, we lounge shirtless or wear skinny jeans to attract and secure mates. Put him and Mariusz in a room and Leto will attract more women. Get with the times, we aren’t apes anymore, we’re civilized human beings.
