What does it take?...

[JayceonTaylor]

To build a physique in that stature below (pic attached)

I aint looking to be a bodybuilder, but id like to get that thug kinda look.

Any idea to this guys stats, i know he's 6'4 but not a clue on anything else.

[Flexor]

It takes hardly any working out, a bit of cutting and a few tatts.

If you are nothing right now, you could be there in 1 year no problem.

[Xtralarg]

He looks skinny to me....dont think that physique would be to difficult to achieve

Agreed, for 6'4" he is not well built. You could get there in under a year with lifting the major free weight compound movements.

E.g. squats, pullups, dips, bench, military press, rows, deadlifts etc etc

[JayceonTaylor]

Cool, cool, i was expecting to get flamed. But info is great thankyou.

My biggest problem is shoulders, they just dont respond too well, im currently 6'2 240lbs with a 36" waist, 14% body fat.

[Flexor]

For your shoulders, you want military presses, incline bench press, lateral raises, rear delt rows and possibly bent over lateral raises. You could also benefit from upright rows...

[Xtralarg]

Im 6ft3 and 240 and look at my avvy,thats me.
Your a big guy at 240 and 14%bf isnt that high,you must have some muscle?

[Flexor]

I did wonder that also. You must be bigger than the guy in your pic to start with

[JayceonTaylor]

yeah, i think the past 3yrs of pounding the deadlifts have widened my waist.

I do have decent size, just not in the aesthetic way, i.e. legs and back are big everything else is pretty average

If what you have said about bf%,weight etc are accurate then concentrate on cardio and diet to lower your bf and you will make that guy in your pic look like a matchstick!

[JayceonTaylor]

lol!

Cheers guys, i'll let you know how it goes!

Its funny i started training wanting to be the next Ronnie Coleman, when i realised that wasnt gona happen, i decided to shoot for what would look like the total opposite, maybe i should just do me

Stop working out get a few tatoos and shave your head.

His stats 6"4 and 150pounds LOL, you sure dont have the highest aspirations.

[chest6]

Starve yourself..do some pushups..get some tats

[omnipotent]

pushups and pullups .. and thats it

[Flexor]

No, pullups may be too strenuous. They are good for building mass even without weight, whereas pushups aren't good for that

Smoke mad drow, drink the occassional 40 oz. when puttin' pen to pad, attend house parties and "lean back" for cardio, cut a few albums, rehearse 3 times per week, attend funerals, shop @ the Glendale Mall, etc.

lmao!! U seen his dvd then? Saw him in concert back in july and it was an awsome show, talented performer.

I dont think its as simple as that ive looked for a few more pics and you can definately tell he trains pretty hard

[Flexor]

That pic shows more muscularity, but its nothing compared to what could be achieved. He spends more time on promoting himself and doing media-based activites than working out, that much is obvious..

Nah..colored brothers are just naturally cut. My dogs eat like shit and don't even workout and they look the same since we were kids. Genetics I guess.

[S.P.G]

lol thats a good one..

[SwoleCat]

Make no mistake, he is lean and has "some" musculature, however I'd challenge him to bench 225. If he can do that, then I bet he can't do a set of 10, and to me if you can't do that then you don't workout.

He is blessed w/being tall and having a fast metabolism and good genetics.
All he has to do is crunches while watching t.v., a few pushups, and some curls here/there.

No legs to speak of, especially when you are that tall.

ahh cool im hearing ya

I can bench that but only just had shoulder surgery last january and its never been the same since My chest responds really well, its my shoulders that are stubborn as f#ck! but i suppose the injury has something to do with that!

[wuboy25]

At 6.2 240 14%Bf you should look at lot better than him...
