Hey /Fit/

Many years ago I used to be into body building and MMA, I got quite muscular from my adventures. I used to come here to discuss building muscle, but today I come here to ask something that most of you will probably be horrified at. I would like some advice on loosing muscle, particularly in my target areas.

After meeting my now wife I began to lose interest in lifting, this was probably assisted by the fact that she likes skinny guys. Over the past 3 years I've been with her I have thinned down and lost almost 15 kg of muscle. However while most of my body looks proportionate my Lats and Serratus Anterior haven't shrunk to the same degree as the other muscles and look awfully out of place.

I've been considering going on a very-low protein diet and doing very high rep, low weight exercises for that region to slim it. Problem is I don't know if this diet will work and I also can't figure out any exercises that very specifically target those regions and wont reduce other muscle groups.

tl;dr Need high rep, low weight exercises specific to lats and serratus anterior to use with a low protein diet to assist in reducing those areas. Also, will it work?

If you do deep tissue massage to a muscle over time without strengthening it at the same time, it will weaken and shrink to normal. Grab a massage ball.

Why is everyone blaming the girl here?

Op is obviously a beta cuck. He probably just lifted purely to get a girl and then gave up right afterwards.

He's going to be a mess once she leaves him.

Also he's completely fucking retarded since he thinks working on those muscles at high reps and low protein is going to disolve them or something.

I don't know why she settled on him. Probably because she gets to sleep with whoever she wants I guess with no strings attached

No there is not validity to it, you'd probably just be sore as fuck all week due to no recovery and still not lose size. The only way to lose all muscle mass is to turn into one of these hungry skeletons that subsists on 1200 calories of shit food a day.

>changing yourself this much for a woman

kek.

but for advice if i were you i'd get into running. burns a hell of a lot of calories without building muscle. just eat at a calorie deficit and jog everyday. then once you're aushwitz mode you can build the muscle up again however she wants it.
>>
>>40732740
No problem limpwrist friendo, Also look into long distance cycling, 15 hours of steady state lower body cardio a week will effectively ablate any remaining upper body mass you have if you eat a deficit, and it will "tone" your legs and butt which will give your wife something to hold onto while she pegs you from behind.
>>
>>40732730
But you're the one with weakness and insecurity.

You lifted to get women and then you turned into the "now I can get fat" spouse. In fact you're actively trying to change your body again because you THINK your wife doesn't like it.

Your body only exists to meet the approval of someone else. You are weak and insecure. And you're literally trying to get weaker physically because of your insecurity about your dyel lats.

Or it's just masterfully crafted bait. At this stage it doesn't even matter.

Good grief shut the fuck up and get back in the gym. If she doesn't like it, then fucking divorce her ass. She didn't stop you from lifting. You did.

I started lifting so that I had something to do to get my mind off being depressed. It was nice to hang out with my mates and it was the only real chance I got. I just don't really need that anymore and I'd rather just make my current self proportionate.

>>40732802
She actually didn't like it how I was. I could tell when I first met her that it put her off a bit. Didn't take long for me to see what kind of guy she liked. I realised that that muscle didn't really feel right to me either.

You already fucked up. Regardless why would you change your body FOR THE WORSE for her?
>but so can most married guys
The only thing that changes is a ring on the woman's finger, which overall doesn't mean anything if she doesn't actually care about you. If she actually cared about you, she would've told you do whatever you want to your body in the gym, I am happy with you either way.
Any of this commitment you've accumulated over a period of time can be easily discarded by actions of a woman
Manipulative overall.
>I realised that that muscle didn't really feel right to me either.
also this comment you made after she told you she doesn't like all the muscle
It's all horse shit OP
Get your fucking gains back, you know you want them. It's instinctual. Why the fuck would get muscle just to lose it for NOTHING
>>
>>40733532
>How?
Used to be if I got naked and hopped into bed with her she mostly stayed on her own side until I initiated. Now days she'll snuggle over to me in the dead of night and initiate on her own and I don't have to lift a finger. She also brags about me to her friends, I know they don't see what she sees but we're both happier so that's what matters most.
>FOR THE WORSE
That's a matter of opinion I suppose. To be honest I actually like being skinny again, suits my face a lot bit better too.
> If she actually cared about you, she would've told you do whatever you want to your body in the gym, I am happy with you either way.
She did and she never pushed me. This was a self lead decision to please the both of us and other than some stubborn areas I'm pretty happy with how things turned out. I just want to be able to slim my lats and serr ant a bit more.
>also this comment you made after she told you she doesn't like all the muscle
Its true I did make the comment after the fact, thing of that how you will but to know how I feel about my body.
>Get your fucking gains back, you know you want them. It's instinctual. Why the fuck would get muscle just to lose it for NOTHING
To be honest the only reason I got muscle was for some companionship and to escape the abusive situations I experienced in my younger years. Now I have companionship and security so I don't really need to overcompensate. I know a lot of the guys here are terrified that if they aren't bulky then their girls wont like them and will leave them at the first given opportunity or even just outright cheat on them, but that just really isn't the case if you have a good personality. If you want to bulk up then that's great, as long as you're doing it for yourself and not out of insecurity.

How about you build some slight mass so that you can look proportionate, balanced and be healthy? I'm sure that your problem area aren't that big, and even if you put on size again to balance it out with the rest, I'm sure that you won't look too bulky for your wifey. It will be a win-win for both of you wouldn't it? I don't know your wifey so I'm just pulling it out of my ass, but sometimes women get worried that her man looks better, my friend used to try to talk her bf out of going to the gym and down size cause she was self conscious.
>>
>>40732508
OP I've gotta give you props for being well-spoken, patient and not having a shitfit with these anons. I don't agree with your mentality for myself but it's obviously something you've come to logically and it's not from a place of self-consciousness or anything.

We're not paranoid about atrophy, we all have legimate reasons to call you a beta cuck. It's not about you wanting to lose muscle, it's about you completely changing the person you are to become some imagine you THINK yoir gf prefers. New flash kid, women dont know what they want. As soon as you think you are skinny enough for her she'll start talking about how you were better when you had muscles. You are getting controlled and manipulates and are giving up the natural dominant position a man has in a relationship. You are making yourself even more beta than you are, which seems impossibly, and giving up your manlihood. Not because of losing muscle, but the reason behind it is whst bothering us. You're setting yourself up to get cucked.

Don't work out at all you autist. All kinds of resistance training will stimulate your muscles so they must adapt to the input, not doing anything at all will lose muscles way faster. Better would be cardio like running for long distances, just look at the marathon dudes.

>>
>>40732508
None of your muscles have shrunk much. Muscle tissue is highly conserved you don't even know. What predoninantly happens with atrophy is you just lose some serotonin receptors and that makes the muscle harder to contract and you lose vascularity.

Likely what happened is you did a hypertrophy routine too early without SS or similar beginner routine first. You mildly inflamed the muscle tissue with high rep shit and thought you'd gotten big. Except you also did pullups and so you got a little muscle on your back.

I would suggest manning up and doing a beginners routine. Otherwise take up a distance cardio sport.
>>
>>40733912
Yeah, I do have nice mass elsewhere is just that those spots stick out and going up again in weight throws out the other areas. I did exaggerate them a little, but it still is a problem. As I said earlier, it was more my choice than hers.

>>40734164
Well despite the way you're phrasing it, it actually does just look weird having as masculine a back on thinner frame. Hence why I'm here looking for resolutions.

>>40734437
Actually injuries contributed substantially to the personal reasons I decided to slim down. I slipped a disk in my back and broke a shoulder back in my fighting days. They're old injuries and mostly recovered but with weight lifting the shoulder does play up regularly. If I ever did place way too much strain on it I stand to lose a lot of the motion in my arm.

If you'd have put on muscle in your bb and mma days you wouldn't be having this problem. It's nigh impossible to lose muscle tissue.

You're contorting your body in order to fulfill her superficial requirements. You know those girls you laugh at for getting hideous cosmetic surgeries and lip fillers? You're basically that. Go get a pair of booty shorts and one of those slutty thong-back one pieces to wear underneath: your uniform for the changes you seek to accomplish.

Where's your self respect, anon? Lifting is about the beautiful realisation of your peak physical condition and the feeling it gives you to know you're as strong as you can possibly be.

If she alleges to care about you, your personal physical progression should not be a factor in her feelings towards you. If it is a factor, then she doesn't care about you.
