Bigorexia is a real thing nowadays. The male body standard inflation on social media is just wild… unless you’re on gear, cut down to 6% body fat and in good lighting you’d get ratio’d into oblivion
Yeah you can generally tell, the neck and shoulders have more androgen receptors so they will typically have bulbous shoulders, oversized traps and a thick neck. Other giveaways are early balding, back acne, and rapid muscle gain. And huge mass monsters are pretty obvious. If you were really interested you could take a look at Jesse James West on YouTube. He’s about the peak muscularity someone can reasonably achieve without steroids outside of genetically gifted individuals. He interviews gym girls often and they rate him so low haha.
It’s not one or the other. You can lift heavy things, not do steroids and not have skinny arms. You can also have skinny arms if you don’t want to lift heavy things and are perfectly content with them. But let’s not frame this as a binary choice because it isn’t.
I wish more people would be open about it. Alan Ritchson is one of the few Hollywood celebrities that has candidly spoken about his use of exogenous testosterone to prepare for his role as Reacher, but clearly so many others are getting help. I’m in my late 50s trying to add muscle mass, and it’s a huge challenge. I’d say that I’m better off than all of the men in this 1919 photo, but not by that much.

I know those words, but I don’t think they’re being used in a manner to which I’m accustomed.
Steroids or nobody likes you
You know what? I’m gonna not take steroids even harder.
They can tell just by looking that I don’t take steroids right? Like I don’t have to actually talk to them?

I’d rather have my 3% body fat “skinny arms” then synth arms.
How can you form coherent thoughts at 3%? I would only be able to think about food

I wonder how well a 1950s Mr Universe Sean Connery would do today?
what in the fuck is that. I look better and I never workout. I work desk job 50+ hrs/week. I’m supposed to be mr universe :(
Do you look better than that, or do you look like you suck off a dude for discount tren?
