Would you rather be ripped and lean or massive and strong

If you could only do one or the other and be really good at it, but drugs and health may be an issue.

Lol, I'm in my late thirties, and had I not been a moronic young person once I'd say this was a stupid ass question. But to take the bait, ripped of course.

Why? This is a bodybuilding themed community. I'd rather have mass but I can't do it within reason.

When young most every guy wants to be big and muscular at the expense of a chiseled and ripped physique as you want to look impressive in the clubs and at work and your spending the vast majority of your time in clothes so the lack of a six pack doesn't matter. But when you get older you think more about health and constantly having to eat takes on less of an appeal so epic leans starts to take priority.

I never had the privilege of being massive as I don't have the genes for it. I don't think I'd give it up if I did. I think it's acceptance on my part to be lean.

my face gets "fat looking" when i become massive/ripped. my neck gets huge so my face as well gets huge as well... even though im ripped. when my face gets big, i loose my looks. when im smaller and toned without the huge traps and neck my face is "team lean face". i get way more attention by women when i have "team lean face"...even though id prefer massive and ripped look ..but its all muscle memory so i can change my looks in a matter of weeks. if i get married id go back to massive and ripped...but my girlfriends get jealous when other women stare at me..when i have Team Lean Face
real men= no rubbers

Getbig already gave the answer a decade ago.

"Huge without being stupidly huge, powerful looking, lean without being stupidly lean and imo an aesthetic physique many can appreciate."



"That's a great everyday look, easy to maintain without a ton of gear."

Ideally I'd like to have this look but I also love beer so it's not going to happen. I just came back from vacation and put on 5 pounds. Hope to get my act back together soon.

Ah. Ok then. Wouldn’t want to be weak. Strong it is. Muscle strength is important if you want to be active when you become an old fart.

Ripped & lean all day

  Being the "big" guy is for insecure men wrapped up in their bodysize

My goal was always to be strong period.  Being ripped is too much effort much like being as big as possible. Somewhere in between and healthy is fine.
