Body issues

[Gruff01]

Hi i was just wondering if anyone else has the same problem as me.

I wouldn't say i was overweight or skinny, somewhere in between, average-ish. Anyway i compare my body to other guys. My body when i look in the mirror just lookds completely different to every other guy i have seen. Side on other guys butts are for lack of a better word "flat" and normal looking but mine curves out. Is that normal? I took a photo on my phone and when i looked the pic did not look too bad. Side on my stomach looks like it sticks out too even though i am not overweight. Whereas on other guys their stomachs don't look like mine. I am not sure i am explaining this clearly at all but i feel that my body is odd and that makes me quite insecure about it. Does anyone else feel like this? I am just confused and worry a lot about it.

We need a pic lol

I am the same. Somewhere in the average place.

Its normal for an ass to stick out. Some of us just have nice round butts. Im the same, no matter how skinny i get I will always have a bum. If its not saggy then its good. Flat asses are the worst.

Also for your belly, never look at it in a mirror alone. You need to do it in a full length mirror or it will look weird to you and rounded no matter what.

There isnt a NORMAL human body. Everyone is different. So you will never be odd alone, because everyone is odd to someone else. Also we tend to be way harder on ourselves for no reason. Take a pic of yourself and see.

Its called vanity. Most everyone is overly critical of how they look.

The best thing for you to do is to lift and increas the your muscle mass so that you can change your overall bodyshape to make it more proportionate.

Pull ups will build your lats and chest and shoulder presses which will increase your upper body mass and that will give you a better V-shape and combat the hippy pear shape you have.

Just make sure you base your workouts on big movements like squats, dead lifts, pull ups and lunges.

If you are going to compare your body to someone elses, don't look at their body as a standard. Everyone is different.

I'm insecure about my body and most people would say I shouldn't have to be, but to be honest, I'M REALLY SKINNY.

I don't like how I don't have a full chest and I want pecs but I'm just skinny and I could work out but Im just lazy too.

From your description it doesn't sound anything but normal. But if you're comfortable enough to post a pic, that would help.

I don't know it the same thing happens to you, bit to me, what happens is that when I compare myself to other guys, is that, even thought I'm not overweight, I'm not very "tight", as in, since I have never worked out, my body is sort of...flacid.

The bodybuilding word is ripped. It just means your % bodyfat is high compared to your muscles. Genetically however, some guys are naturally ripped while others aren't unless they lift and eat right. You're the latter. Lifting will give yourself the tighter appearance you're refering to.

Ok i will sort out a pic. I did have one but it was too blurred. Will get another and then post on here.

Working out makes the difference.

Hi this is me. So what do you think? am i worrying for nothing?

What's up is that you have a mild lordosis which is a concavity in your lower back. It makes for a nice bubble butt that most guys find very attractive. And inviting.

I've got the same back as you, Gruff01. So you're not alone.
