Does getting ripped change your face?
11-12-2014, 09:16 AM
I know that losing weight alter your face a bit, make you lose fat on the cheeks, chin and help make your jawline more defined.
What I can't seem to find info on is whether or not getting truly jacked make your face look more muscular. I've always been lean but will not say I'm ripped, but working on it. There's nothing wrong with my face but I'm not Ryan Gosling. Wonder if getting ripped make your face look more attractive and more manly? Maybe it highlight the cheekbones and jawline even more?
Any of you guys notice your face getting more attractive after getting jacked, or is it more about the overall appearance that make you more attractive as a whole.

Yes, if I could find the other thread, someone posted a ton of images of just the faces before and after losing weight.
I can tell you from personal experience that losing over 50 and building muscle made mine look completely different.

If you're not fat, getting lean will change your face marginally unless you diet down to real low levels of bodyfat (sub 10%).

Yeah it does. A lot of people think that when you lower your BF%, it only affects the torso and limbs, whereas it actually affects everywhere.

First off, jacked and ripped aren't interchangeable. Getting jacked is a helluva lot harder than getting ripped.
But for a short answer, cutting down body fat absolutely leans out the face.
It's a balancing act though. I love the benefits of having a big muscular body (6'4 220lb), but it's incredibly hard to maintain that size naturally at a very low body fat, and to me the lifestyle changes wouldn't be worth it. But since I don't have a cast iron jawline, anything but a very low body fat makes my face a little puffy.
For me, size > ripped. I just prefer being a big dominant SOB. But in terms of facial aesthetic appeal, I definitely look better at 200lb.
Also, I've noticed that older guys with very low body fat can start to look unhealthy. Whereas a similar body fat young guy rocks a lean face, an older dude starts to look gaunt.

Testosterone also changes your face.

Pictures like the ones in the bodybuilding.com thread are why I want to get to single digit body fat.

Holy shit! Hopefully losing some fat will work wonders for my ugly ass. Currently at about 20%, usually get rated 5-6.

I am in the MikeCF camp.
At 14% BF I have a very lean face with a strongly define jawline which is a blessing and a curse.
When I get to 12% or below I look gaunt and weak in the face, girls tell me I look too skinny and my family tries to feed me everything in sight. Better to have a healthy face than a 6 pack.
My only recourse is to get broader shoulders, thicker arms etc....
I also have 24"+ thighs and 16.5"+ calves naturally with no weight lifting. Lower body is done pants fit tight enough lol.

Fuck that thread is a huge inspiration WestIndie!
Though for the purpose of this thread, I would say the huge transformation they got is much more about overall appearance than just facial. Look at it, they dress better and the ones with the most significant change totally got a new haircut. Men we should have a haircut for your face thread!
Facial features change are obvious too: less fat in cheeks, more defined cheekbone and jawline. Is it just me or for some of them their face look longer and their eyes deeper?
I'm wondering if going from 18% (where I am) to 12-13% will give me such a huge boost.

For those of us looking to cut some fat and get to a lower body fat percentage, this stuff is magic:
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/grenad...nator.html
This stuff helped me go from 30% to 20% in less than 6 months. Combine this with some testosterone cream and triweekly gym sessions, and you'll barely need to change your diet.
No, I'm not getting paid for this shit, even though I should be. I probably provide them with more publicity than their own marketing team.

A bunch of ugly motherfuckers turned into male models by dropping down to 8-12% body fat. Amazing.
To think of it, I don't think I've ever seen a guy who wasn't good looking that was obviously fit with low body fat.
Here I am worried about getting too small, when really I should be cutting this fat ASAP.

This just shows to go that men complaining about their looks are bitching for no good reason.
The average man can become above average in terms of looks quite easily.
With good style, hitting the gym and lower bf%, proper hairstyle for your face, and having confidence you can easily raise your facial and overall looks substantially. Over the last couple of years, I've improved my dress and grooming quite a bit, to the point where I think I went from a 4 to maybe a 6.5-7 when I'm really well dressed and groomed.
Another interesting effect I've noticed is that it works both ways. If you have good looks you'll be more confident, but if you're confident you'll look even better because your subtle facial expression will change. The best situation is to create a positive feedback loop where both aspects are feeding into each other.

Steve Buscemi doesn't fit what I said at all. I didn't say lean.
"To think of it, I don't think I've ever seen a guy who wasn't good looking that was obviously fit with low body fat."
Buscemi is skinny fat, he has no muscle mass at all. I wouldn't consider him fit in any sense of the word.
