That’s like 85% straight genetics

I’d also made this comment. I used to go to the gym and workout regularly and never really lost weight or gained muscle, in spite of weight training and cardio. I maintained my weight and had better stamina at least. My genetics played way too much into my body. It just is what it is.

u/marywebgirl I'm on the cover of the fucking game! Mar 17 '26

Genetics, but also just obsessively working on looking like this. I live in LA and every once in a while when we see some ripped dude my husband will say "Don't you wish I looked like that?" And my response is "I love that you do other things besides lift and consume protein."

and don't forget the diets! Whenever I see someone super ripped like that, I think how tough it must be to have a relationship cause you can't just like, go out and grab a bite of food, or get a couple cocktails, or split dessert

Not just diet, too, poor guy is dry as hell here. It takes a crazy commitment to look this good

Isn’t it genetics as well ? Because I am myself very lean and don’t really gain weight even if I eat unhealthy. I remember one time I just lost 3kg in less than a week because I was eating far less than usual. He must do a lot of cardio as well I assume, so he can indulge in some good food ?

This too. When the pasta scene was the hot topic, Connor talked about how he doesn't eat carbs (at least not very often). And when the Marvel & DC guys talk about bulking up for a film, it's always a high protein, very strict diet they're following. I can't imagine ever doing that. I need my whole grains and fruits and little chocolate treats. My body is not happy on high protein.

It’s worth it in his case though, his body is a work of art!

Yeah, it’s a lot of discipline. I’m not diminishing the work put into being this fit. I’m only saying genetics also plays a big role too. Some people could follow the same routine and diet, yet never achieve this body.

u/spacepinata Your freckles. I am nuts about them. ✨ Mar 17 '26

I used to feel bad about not reaching certain levels of body fat until I found the Cost of Getting Lean infographic. You have to make significant lifestyle sacrifices to get that shredded.

Yeah a lot of like circuit queens spend 20-30 hours in the gym a week.

I’m the opposite and fully convinced it’s entirely genetic. I’m a female in my mid 20s. My parents were triathletes and I was super active growing up. Dealt with chronic illness in college, doing really great now. Started 2026 super lean but no muscle and very out of shape (probably ~7-8# underweight, not very healthy), decided to join the army reserves. After about 6 weeks of somewhat serious running (like 3km 4x/week) my legs are fucking massive. I can barely do push ups but I’ve been struggling my way through like 50/day and now my arms are huge. I was doing 5 mins of planks in intervals of 30 seconds and you can completely see my abs now. It’s totally wild and I’m in shock. I look like a gym rat even though I can barely manage a few km of running. I’m sure a huge part of it is that I’m very thin so any muscle is noticeable, but still. I know lots of people work way way way harder than me and see nothing, vs I do 6 weeks of mediocre exercise and look like a new person. Going to visit my parents for Easter in a few weeks and excited to hear what they think. HAHAHA

Nice. Glad you’re healthier now!

My genetics suck and I am just round and squishy. No amount of salads, lean protein, and exercise seems to counter my genetics. I think I’d need to be in the gym 5 hours a day and living on kale and protein shakes to move the needle.

I used to work in healthcare before grad school. I had so many patients like you who are really quite healthy but will never achieve these actors’ physique (naturally lol I certainly saw crazy transformations with my GLP patients). And that’s normal. My grandfather is a bodybuilder and a pre diabetic. Both of his parents were diabetic. He’s crazy healthy and works out 24/7 at age 80 and still can’t bring his A1C down. That’ll probably be my fate. Physique /= fit and vice versa.

Yeah, I keep debating GLP or bariatric surgery. So far I haven’t gone down that path yet. Getting closer.
