What muscles make you look at someone and be able to tell if

i'd say arms and shoulders if you're wearing a shirt or a tank top

delts,traps,arms

>>38061890
Forearms and neck is a dead giveaway.

>>38061890
Traps
Delts
Lats
Pecs

Arms are for niggerfaggots with no delts

I usually ignore chest and biceps because normies and broscientists always work these

In my opinion to be considered a lifter you have to either be lifting for some type of athletic goal or if you're lifting for aesthetics/bodybuilding you should be proportional. Most athletic activity does not require chest or biceps, and of course all bodybuilders will already have these nicely developed.

Quads are a good one, but a lot of people have anterior leg imbalances so I prefer to look for glutes/hamstrings, especially since these have a bigger role in jumping/explosive leg strength.

The other thing I look for is a strong back. It's easy to ignore your back but having big lats, erector spinae, and traps is a dead giveaway that you're a strong motherfucker.

>delts look like shit anyway, because narrow bones

JUST

>>38061990
Do more raises/isolation work.

Bone structure is a meme.

Unless you have the weirdest insertions ever, you can git gud delts

Do high pulls if you want to look like you lift.

>>38062042
Can lateral raises really make a difference? Is it better to do them with your arms straight or slightly bent? Should the torso be perpendicular to the ground or slightly inclined forward?

>>38061917
this.

forearms, traps, and neck are what make a motherfucker look like a bull.

>>38062042

>Bone structure is a meme

Nope. Your shoulder width is mostly determined by your clavicle length and building up the delts won't make a big difference unless you have those enormous cannonball delts which require huge amounts of roids and look repulsive to normies.

>>38062096
Anyone have that timeline pic of the guy who did side laterals every workout for like 6 or 8 months?
They looked kinda roided at the end from what I remember

>>38062127

desu i have shitty bone structure but with good lats and delts work now i look quite decent (and yes it's lot of work for mediocre result but its still better than being pear shaped^^)

>>38062581
Why don't you go ahead and post those good lats and delts of yours

>>38061955

AHHAHAHAHAHAHA
who is more aesthetic?

DAVID LAID OR MATT OGUS?
Ogus has a lot more muscle than David but still looks worse ALL BECAUSE OF BONE STRUCTURE

>>38061890

Neck, traps, delts, and forearms are what make you look good in a t shirt. You don't need the best chest or lat spread ever to look big in a tshirt. Really you should train everything indiscriminately.

>>38061890
Quads, erector spinae.
Protip: social dancing (salsa, bachata, tango) is an amazing way to find out beforehand if an attractive partner has a /fit/ body. Wear your best clothes and make up, you can't mask weak erectors to the touch.

>>38061911
>>38061914
>>38061917
>>38061935
Wrong. You are either normies with less than 6 months in /fit/ or who have been lifting for less than 6 months, or brosplitters, or roiders, or just dumb.
"Aesthetic body" ≠ "lifts"

>>38061955
Mostly if not completely right, but tldr.

>>38062745

Fuck off, pansy. Neck yourself.

>>38062509
Bump

>>38062096
straight arm and perpendicular, and yes, they make a huge difference, but you have to work your read delt too, if you bend your arm a bit and incline foward you'll work your rear delt

>>38062980
>3.25 pl8 squat, highbar
>182 cm, 86 kg, 16%bf
>thunder thighs
Lel not even close

>SS thunder thigh pajeet
Any more meme insecurities to project?

>>38063375
Largely dependent on frame and insertions, and also heavily trained by brosplitters.
Again, aesthetic ≠ lifts

>>38062509
bump as well

as you may have noticed NO ONE FUCKING CARES ABOUT LEGS upon first glace.

however, nice juicy legs are a plus for every girl once they get you nakey.

do not ignore legs pls.

>>38063073
Whats the being of you'reself talking about?

>>38063735

the legs 3x a week meme was developed by insecure gym beginners.

it's a way to protect ego/derive value

the guys who have been training for years objectively shit on the average SS first 12 month users of /fit/

so the /fit/ users developed some weird metric to measure success nobody in real life cares about

i.e.

cool so you can bench 3 plates and have 6 pack abs but can you LEG PRESS 6 PLATES? HAHAHHAHA

DO U EVEN SQUAT BRO?

my favourite part is watching begineers in the gym grow out of this phase. guys go from doin squats and shit constantly to maybe 1x a week if not at all after a couple years.

unironically the correct answer is their back.

if the back is thick and wide they are definetly a strong mother fucker.

you cant bench a lot and have a small back
you cant ohp a lot and have a small back
you cant squat a lot and have a small back
you cant deadlift a lot and have a small back

the back is the lynchpin of the whole body, if its weak you aren't lifting shit.

>>38062509
bump again

>>38061890
Traps and shoulders for sure

>>38061890
Full homo i like it when i see a guy with well defined anterior delts and upper Chest.

shoulders

>>38064267
What r u on about? Anyone who trains for sport or anything other than lifting because >tfwnogf squats. It's the fundamental lift of any program

>>38061890
Traps,delts,lats,forarms,abs and glutes

>>38061890
Depends on if you want to look like you actually lift or just normie tier, I do bicep curls and bench press every other day tier.

If actually lifting:
Traps
Lats
Tris
Delts
Quads
Calves
Biceps
Chest
Spinal Erectors
Glutes

Pretty much everything, but the most important are traps and lats, if your back is small the rest does not matter

>>38062509
bump

>always train my back because it's piss easy
>neglect shoulders because they don't grow
>decent arms
>people assume I lift because i got a wide back

Feels good desu

>>38061890
Those...those aren't chinups

neck , posture is also a good tell

>caring what other people think

I know this next line is a meme here, but I mean it sincerely: you are never going to make it

>>38064917

> being over 20

> lifting for a 'sport'.

huh?

>>38064345
Do you even logic? Having a big back doesn't mean you lift.

>>38068609
People don't usually carry a lot of fat in their backs so even a normie can have good definition.

back and legs

>>38062096
>>38062509

lateral raises are goat tier, they really bring the shoulder

>>38068609

literally never seen a non-lifter with a thick and wide back.

and i've been alive 25 years.

The traps. They're the only muscles you can really notice if the person is wearing a long-sleeve shirt (which is 3/4 of the year where I live). Big traps mean big deadlift.

>>38061890
The eyes, duh

>>38062509
curious pls

Juice or not they are still crazy big in proportion to his arms and chest

people assuming stuff doesnt mean shit

people will assume u got some bbc action

them assuming u have a bbc doesnt change the fact ure a 4 inch dicklet

>>neglect shoulders because they don't grow
You got the causation wrong there; they don't grow because you neglect them.

>>38070837

> strong mother fucker.

do you see the issue

>>38061890
everything from the pecs up

>>38062667
>MATT OGUS

LAID looks better because he's not a spic manlet.

>>38061890
Traps are the biggest indicator. It's just a muscle 99% of people don't have visible unless they pick heavy shit up.
Next in line I'd say forearms, delts, pecs and lats and lumbar

traps anything else anyone says is a lie. After that probably back and forearms.

>>38070574
You forgot ankles

>>38061890
erectors, traps, hammies, quads, lats

>>38061890
I'd definitely say traps and upper back
Traps because they usually mean that the person does heavy ass deadlifts or at least carries heavy ass things and back because most gymbros only like working the show muscles and neglect things like rows and rear delts
