How muscular do you *want* to be?

(431 total votes)

Athletic: muscular, but not as much as a dedicated lifter (160, 37.1%)
Muscular: a physique that would be achieved after six years of serious lifting (95, 22.0%)
Peak Natty: your genetic limit for building muscle (70, 16.2%)
Pro Bodybuilder: a physique that could only be attained with anabolic steroids (57, 13.2%)
Noob gains: lifts occasionally to maintain a small amount of muscle (27, 6.3%)
Skinny: no visible muscle mass (22, 5.1%)

I asked a while ago how muscular users of GWM were, now I want to see how muscular people on here would ideally like to be.

I'm happy with how muscular I am now (5'6" 160 pounds at 11 percent body fat)

Amateur bodybuilder, not pro. I don't think I'd like to get on stage, but I'd like to look like a men's physique competitor. I've been lifting for 20 years, but have not taken the plunge and started PEDs yet. I wish I could. My diet and training are on point now.

Maybe 10-15 lbs more of muscle than I have now. I'm 5'10", 210 lbs, 10% body fat.

I want to have as little muscle as possible

No desire to be muscular, but I'd like to be a little thinner (5'11" - 200lbs)

sometimes i fantasies about being weaker than my wife but the benefits of being strong are too good so i wish i was very muscular and strong so lifting heavy things are easier. but the gym life is not for me it seems like most attempts to get strong end up in failure. but right now i am losing a lot of weight. i used to be fat when i did a lot of sports and was on a diet now i do way less yet i am less fat this doesn't make any sense .

Sleeper build. Already got it, but I want bit more

I’m not sure if I’d ever actually go the steroid route, since I have no aspirations to ever compete, but I’ve wanted to look freakishly muscular, since I was like 10. Even with drugs, I think what I WANT to look like is completely unattainable, but I voted pro-bodybuilder since it’s the closest option.

If I quit/severely cut down on drinking, I'd probably be happy with where I would be lol (5'9 @ 190 lbs at the moment)

I thought this site was about girls with muscle? We all know most of the members here are guys.

Between noob and athletic. I’m not passionate enough about fitness to obsess over training and nutrition.

I want to be the most muscular man alive

I'm also for noob/athletic but I want my girl to be a pro bodybuilder 😊

I am a guy, but my goal is to be lower body dominant like wellness division girls

Sep 05, 2024 - permalink

Ideally I want to be "in shape", healthy enough to do my favorite hobbies (birdwatching/hiking) without tiring too quickly.

So in-between noob and athletic, probably a bit more towards noob I guess. Despite being obsessed with muscles on others, never really had the desire to have them myself and I know I don't have the kind of drive to maintain a very muscular physique anyway.

If my girlfriend is not goint to start to train seriously and build up massive muscles soon, I will have to go the way on my own so that I can get aroused by my own muscles every time I want. ^^

I'm actually looking to tone it down a bit. Carrying too much mass at an older age, you definitely feel the size on your joints, and organs are overworked from years of cycling.

I'm looking to be between Noob and Athletic -- in terms of being in good shape (so i can get around on my own, stay active with my hobbies, and be of use to my family) and keeping my weight under control.

Peak natty and muscularity after 6 months of intense training seem to be identical goals (assuming no PEDs during those 6 months).

Sep 06, 2024 - permalink

As big as I can be. I just like muscles. I don't know if I'd ever do PEDs though.

Have you seen the mens wellness competitors in Brazil? It's so crazy! Awesome too.

Bodybuilder for about 12 years, started PED's in 2021. I'm 6' and around 212lb. I definitely want to gain more, but I'm on light cycles, and I'm natty half of the year.

Honestly, I'm pretty satisfied with my size overall, I'm trying to refine my look (bigger lats, better quad sweep), but not training for anything specific. I just love lifting and the overall physical culture of bodybuilding. I don't think that I have the discipline or time to be a professional with it, though.

Give me a minute for my green gamma cocktail to kick in. ;)

I could get a little more athletic. Not too big. Like that is a problem I will ever encounter naturally lol. It makes shopping for clothes a lot easier. I work out for health purposes nowadays. Not so much for purely aesthetics or PRs.
