how to work Glutes without looking like a fagg?
-
@Arvidivs thanks man. Why do u say this? People will think you're crazy for being aesthetic and striving towards kalokagathia?
-
@Aryan_Racist they just can't comprehend true passion.
-
@Arvidivs people call it obsession to knock down anything you do well. Females and low-T males love to confuse passion for obsession...
-
@Aryan_Racist Hi, I suggest that calling it an "obsession" has a dismissive connotation and is not useful in many cases
Yet for a part of people the tendency to work out can be motivated by a feeling of lack of strength, lack of serenity, lack of aestheticism(head and body), lack of masculinity, among other things,
working out doesn't necessarily improve these aspects, and potentially for a part of people it reduces energy, reduces serenity, reduces masculinity, reduces well-being, increases the focus on the smallest detail of the body and the potential dissatisfaction and negative emotions that result from it
Beyond a certain muscle volume relative to our body, it can also make us look less athletic, less aesthetic, and less intelligent

Leg curls don't work glutes, glutes are primarily for hip extension, not knee flexion (hamstrings). The best accessible exercise would probably be split squats since it will force activation of the glute medius since it's a single-leg movement. Next would be heavy sled drags (dragging/pulling not pushing) in an upright/walking position. Humans have relatively large glutes (compared to other apes) due to upright posture and the glutes being utilized at the end range of hip extension --which is what occurs while walking.
Barbell squats and deadlifts are terrible exercises, yes you can get stronger with them and put on muscle but you will always have to contort your body slightly to fit the path of the bar. This leaves the door open for injuries and asymmetries especially since they are bilateral.
Last, you shouldn't care what people think about you in the gym. Glutes are probably one of the top 3 muscles that women look for in men. It shows that you are strong, agile, fast, and can also thrust your member deep into her. If that somehow makes you a fag idk what to say
-
@Aryan_Racist I think what's keeping you back is the fact that you look like a fag
-
@Truth that's a whole lot of cope. Are you from India by chance? Lmao
-
@Arvidivs What's a cope, you coping? I'm not from India

@Arvidivs It's factual and elementary, beyond a certain volume of muscle relative to body size and/or bone structure, it makes the individual appear less athletic, less aesthetic, potentially less intelligent, you still don't know that you don't know
You seem to project your own tendencies onto others, I have no use for finding "excuses", specifically when I don't consider it sub-optimal, if you believe that there is no limit and that as much muscle as possible is optimal in terms of athleticism, aesthetics (from women's perspective, not the men who comment on your body), making you look intelligent, and/or that it can't reduce these attributes, you're wrong, you don't know that you don't know
"Pajeet" lolol you are ridiculous, i report you
-
Lunges, wide squats, rdl, bulgarian split squat (sounds peaty) and good mornings to some degree. Get strong in those exercises and you'll grow your glutes and the rest of your legs. Make sure to focus on the hip hinge part of the excercise.
If that doesn't work just embrace it and do some hip thrusters. Better to have glutes than no glutes, brother.

@Truth I don't think you know what you're talking about. Making an exception for professional bodybuilders using a comical amount of drugs, developing a great natural physique (yours is not a good example) will, in fact, make you look more athletic, aesthetic and even intelligent for one needs to study and practice a lot to develop an impressive and strong body. Joshua Kenyon is a great example in this case, if you tell me his physique is ugly and that he looks dumb, you're most likely a midwit resentful of people who pushed further than you. And honestly, women opinion on your looks is completely gay to care about, you should it to no one other than yourself. Not to say your statement is wrong as women tend to be more attracted to stronger and bigger males. Their sayings are completely different from their behavior around such types of men.
-
@Arvidivs On what I commented on this post, I know what I'm talking about, better than you for sure
I don't know Josua Kenyon( I wish him the best), if you think his physique and/or muscle volume is optimal in terms of athleticism, aesthetics, and perceived intelligence, you're wrong
"you're most likely a midwit resentful of people who pushed further than you"
It's you who is clearly being resentful and of limited intelligence at the moment, I don't "push", there's no point in "pushing", also i wish the best to others including those who do body building and have big muscle volume
Lolol "women opinion on your looks is completly gay to Care about", so that implies that according to you the opinion that matters is those of other men(free to you),
or just our own opinion, if it's just our own opinion according to you, why do the majority of people who do body building and try to have a big muscular volume, do it, just to look at themselves in the mirror regardless of other people's perception, so you think that if everybody wouldnt care about muscular volume and/or that one man would be the only person on earth, he would still do body building and try to have a big muscular volume for his own perception and/or for his own "health" and "energy"? Lolol nonsense
I'm attaching Joshua's images for reference:
-
@Truth Yes, opinion of other men matter more than from women, they can relate to you since training is a masculine activity and there's nothing gay about it, masculine circles are something common even before recorded history. And yes, ideally, you should train for yourself because external factors won't give enough discipline to dedicate yourself on training and I think that's why you're pencilneck btw.
You talk so much about athleticism and functionality but, as it shows, you didn't train hard enough to get big and see for yourself if it is as dysfunctional as you like to affirm. The existence of athletes such as Mike Tyson and Alexander Karelin is enough to prove you wrong as they were strong, flexible and agile during their careers and they were heavyweights and there's a big chance they were on roids too. -

Fellas, examples are worth more than any yapping. You guys can tell me if Joshua (shown in the images above) doesn't look aesthetic and athletic.
-
@Arvidivs If in terms of aesthetics you think men's opinions matter, and not women's, that seems to imply potential homosexual tendencies(free to you), I was speaking for heterosexual men in terms of aesthetics
Discipline isn't a virtue in itself, discipline is doing things you don't like because you've read or heard somewhere that it's good to do so, if you like what you do, you don't need discipline. I don't train, I didn't imply that I did, you don't know what weight/muscular volume I have or had, so a lot of what you're trying to claim is a fantaisy in your own head to try to legitimize your animosity, driven by the negative emotions you've felt because it affects you that i says too much muscle volume relative to body size and/or Bone structure isn't optimal in some aspects
Nothing I've said is in contradiction with certain people such as Mike or Alexandre, I've specified too much muscle relative to the body size and/or bone structure of the person, so non sense again,
anecdotally, Mike has said that he doesn't like the way he looks, and that he thinks he's fat, even when he's notYour athleticism argument is nonsense, what's most effective varies according to the activity, athleticism isn't just boxing, wrestling or heavyweight
I'll stop answering you, you're confused and bitter
-
@Truth I'm just laughing at how wrong you're and how seriously you take yourself pajeet lmao
-
@Arvidivs Lolol, you're wrong, you don't know that you don't know
In terms of aesthetics, I didn't know you did body building for the perception of men, not women, what I said potentially doesn't apply to you, you'll ask the men you like
I block you
