Good. youre fine lookswise but as you know there is always room for improvement.I've been lifting consistently for about 1yr and 9months.
Yes sir, thank you for your input.Good. youre fine lookswise but as you know there is always room for improvement.
You've got a good foundation to build on. Legs seem proportional to the rest of your body which is very important...you definitely don't want to have a huge upper body and tiny legs, it looks horrible but so many guys don't even lift lower body.Yes sir, thank you for your input.
With the knowledge shared here, i'm changing my life for the better in many aspects.

Can't comment on your body, obviously because you're wearing a shirt. But your forearm looks good lol.Figure I may as well go for it. What should I work on during this pandemic as far as appearance goes?
actually the short buzzcut does look better , makes you look way differentThanks bro, here's a couple more pics that might indicate what you mean. Neither has a beard shadow so I would have to add that of course. But which closer cut is closest to what you mean? If neither is close, do you have a google picture to show it?

PS. I was in the navy over the summer when I was 16 which I really appreciate having done, but I haven't been in since then. I would recommend anyone who hasn't been in the military to do a 3 month or whatever stay, you will learn new values giving you a new perspective. When I came back, the vain atomism of civilian life seemed empty and corrupt to me by comparison.
Thanks, I just prefer the younger look of being clean shaven or having a shadow over having a full beard, but everyone else seems to prefer the opposite haha.
Thank you for the time you've spent sharing your knowledge with me and of course the deep insight.You do have a really good foundation.
What I would suggest based on what I like:
Build up your body a bit more in a clean way, 300cals above maintenance and seek to gain about 7 lbs with minimal fat gain (you will gain some when done in a short period of time - I'd shoot for 6 months for this portion), or at least 15-20% heavier on a lot of your compound lifts. When you obtain this I would start cutting to show off those abs which will have you looking more fluid and proportional throughout.
Focusing on these areas: Abs, shoulders - rear and medial, parts of the trapezius, calves (right now they don't have ideal shape from the front, could use more contours and lift).
Make sure you're stretching your chest. Your lats are quite big, which is really good, but be careful that it doesn't make your arms flare out too much because it will look disproportionate to other muscles, as it does somewhat have that perception right now. And it will make you come off in a way that isn't as attractive, as right now there is a 'gym-bro' flare 'im huge/tuff' essence which doesn't actually seem like how you are. And make sure your traps and lower back are proportional to your lat size.
Facial wise: Your main central features are good. terrific eyebrows, good masculine straight nose, and good lips - you seem friendly and approachable but also have a masculine factor due to a semi prominent brow bone and strong chin. So I'm sure some men and women will be intimidated by you but it's clear to see you're not a an a-hole. you have a presence.
It doesn't seem like you can grow facial hair, except a somewhat sparse mustache, so in that case I would opt for clean-shaven always, if it doesn't irritate your skin, of course.
If you let all your facial hair grow is it just in the upper lip area, or is it possible you can get some around your jaw?
The biggest concern is your overall skin health - you suffer minorly from blemishes and bumps. It's not horrendous by any stretch, but it is noticeable, and it can certainly be improved which I think will have impactful positive consequences if you can get this on-point.
Invest in some good skincare, clean up the diet a bit, stay away from inflaming foods/drinks, maybe get a skin consultation with a quality esthetician who can recommend specific quality products for your skin type and areas of concern. Skincare isn't a want, it's a need! (and go for quality rather than just products. it's a great investment and will have you gracefully aging - Aesop and Skinceuticals are my favorites and what I use)
As for your hair, I would suggest slightly more on the sides, so you have a little play, and 30-50% longer on the top, with it definitely off your forehead. This will give you more length vertically too, for enhancement of facial dimensions. You possess an oval face shape, so more hair will make your positive features stand out more. And more hair will also play off your darker eyebrows which will give your eyes more depth or pop. You have a prominent chin which gives you a masculine edge and presence. Buzzed heads and short short will look better with guys who have more prominent jaws and cheekbones - square or diamond faces - as they need less of a frame due to the fact they want those areas to be highlighted. Notice how most models don't have hair on the sides - this is why.
All in all, you're in a good place man. Just need a few manipulations here and there. But you're on the right track!
So your front delts and chest don't pull your body inwards/forward.but could you enlighten me on why you gave the chest stretch a focus?
This was such a good thread figured I bump. Since COVID I lost 10 lbs until November when I built my home gym. I gained it all back plus about 3-5 lbs more or so. I’m about 170 now. These are a couple pics I just took that I’m using for online dating. I’m getting a lot more messages now. Enough chicks are messaging me first now I just sit back and let it ride. Still mostly getting girls in the 6-7 range. The 8s message back but still act like they’re no good. LolI have reservations about posting images on line. However, there is too much positivity in this thread not to partake. This is me. Age 30. My biggest liability in dating has always been height and stature. I'm genetically short and skinny (5'7, 135 lbs pre-lifting). In these photos I'm 165 lbs.

Wear some subtle lifts 1” or so in your shoes. You’ll have to buy a larger size to accommodate that. Perfect your physique. Make sure your style fits. It helps if you have long legs relative to your torso. If you are 5’5 with short legs long torso there’s not much that can be done to appear taller unfortunately.Just realized this is a "help fix your looks" thread and not just a photo posting thread. Well, I'm 5'5 so if anyone has any tips on how to get taller, lemme know.
Drop the first pic from your profile, the body language isn’t great. However, the second picture is online dating perfection.This was such a good thread figured I bump.

Thanks man this is really good feedback. I agree.Drop the first pic from your profile, the body language isn’t great. However, the second picture is online dating perfection.
The earrings have got to go. You have a very feminine look that needs to be complimented with something more masculine. Not sure if you can grow facial hair but if you can, do it. Wear more masculine clothing and try to bulk up a bit in terms of muscle. You are not an ugly guy by any means but the issue is that you are Asian and have a feminine look, really cutting yourself down to a tight market there. For you, the goal is to get as masculine of a look as you can.Greetings from your fellow Asian Sosuaver. Might have to delete these later once I start posting stuff on IG.
I am not sure why you even say that, the dude looks like an eager puppy. No offense @EyeBRollin because you look like an otherwise masculine guy. I'd say for you man, try to have more photos taken outside with a nice coat on and give a more serious look. Yeah you will polarize but you will also come off as sexier.Drop the first pic from your profile, the body language isn’t great. However, the second picture is online dating perfection.
