    I like muscles on a man, but it should be in proportion. You"re 6ft., but even so you're a tad too big in my opinion. Just my opinion though.

    proportion also depends a great deal on bone structure.

    Too much can def be too much, you need to look "normal", the body builder Jay Cutler looks absolutely bizarre with the little head and way overboard muscles, not attractive to me.......

    What gets me is when I see guys with huge upper bodies and spindly legs. It's not a good look.

    These are the guys that walk funny! Lack of squats and deads!

    I'd like to bulk up but not by THAT much. I just want to be musclar and defined, but not hulk-like.

    I don't think the guys with disproportionately large muscles are going for traditional aesthetic standards of beauty... That sort of bulk isn't my goal, but I absolutely respect people who put in that much work and dedication. Watching them crank out a huge set always inspires me to push myself a little bit harder at the gym.

    If a guy is too muscular it's a turn off. I like average sized, but healthy looking guys.

    I think its funny when a guy only works out his upper body and has little stick legs. Not hot.

    Not the look I'm going for, personally ... I want to get good muscle definition, but maintain (and improve) the speed and agility that gives me an advantage at soccer games on the weekends. Lots of sets with less rest and lower weight for me!

    As long as they aren't screaming on every lift and dropping weights after every set.... There's a guy at my gym who's pretty freaking strong and is mild mannered as they come. You know he's there but not because of the need for everyone to notice how much he's lifting but because he's quiet about it. Much respect.

    ^^^Agree.

    To each his own. Personally, I don't understand the need to put on tons of muscle with no other purpose in mind other than to brag to others about how much you bench or deadlift or flex in the mirror all day. I like the guys who put on practical muscle for sport or function (combat, fighting, job-related).

    But like I said, do your thing if it makes you happy.

    When I was fat, I had extra fat around my midsection on top of all my muscles (I've powerlifted for years)...

    I looked like sometimes I walked like that :D The arms hanging out isn't anything you can do about it!

    Now wait a minute there... what about records. Serious powerlifting records? I think if I've benched 225.7lbs after training for years to get to that... and I even compete...

    I should be allowed to brag!!!

    It does make me uncomfortable, but they're not doing it to impress me, so that's cool.

    If my son, when he's older, gets into lifting, I'll be making sure he finds advice on how to do it without injuring himself, as I've heard this can be an issues for guys who are just doing it for looks.

    that is not correlated at all.

    I agree.

    How does lifting for looks have to do with injury?
    Fall over from scrawny legs because of lack of squats? Seems to be the only issue I can think of xD
    Or a small girl named sunshine kicks their *kitten* for doing curls/crunches in the squat rack -.-

    i had somebody complain about me occupying the squat rack for about 12 sets last week because he wanted to do curls. i told him to go find some dumb bells and get himself a tissue.

    Lol! That is awesome. I usually do glare and not even on purpose since I do squats regularly.

    Today I saw a guy in the squat rack, laying on a bench, with his feet up in the air on the squat bar, doing crunches. O.o


    GRRRRRR! I've seen somebody do yoga in the squat rack too! Its SOO ANNOYING. Now... at my gym. When my training partners and I walk in and set the bag by the rack....

    No matter who's in it... They clear out :)
