See avi. 155lbs at 5'9.541". Was lean, maybe 13-14% but definitely not shredded. Most people always guess I'm 170 though so shows how clueless people are when it comes the amount of fat you can hide without really looking much different in clothes.

Disregard weight as well as opinions from fat miscers who have never been lean. If higher than 12% bf it's never a bad idea to lose fat anyway.

Of course its possible
Proportions, low body fat, lean muscle etc can look good even at 155lbs

You could even appear larger than someone who is 170 but not lean.

Well I guess it’s worth a shot then, I’ll cut down to 155 and if I look too skinny, I can easily bulk up to 170 again no problems

The only way you’ll truly know is if you just cut down and find out for yourself. Scale doesn’t matter anyways. Who knows, you may surprise yourself!
This. I have an Asian friend that mogged me at like 155 @ 5'6 when I was a lean 175 at 5'8 lol

Why would you want to be the size of a teenage boy?


Actually judging from the HS athletes around here you'd get mogged by most teenage athletes.

So you’re lift are a bit better than mine? They hardly dwarf mine and are about the same relative to bodyweight, sorry but in what universe is a 120kg bench press @ 75kg BW (cuffing to 70kg) ‘weak’

Any weight at any height is acceptable as long as you are shredded.

Well fella let’s put it this way, I’ve been 188 at my heaviest and was pretty big in a t shirt and got a lot of comments on it, now I’m 170 - and continuining to cut to about 155-160, if I get to that weight and decide I feel too skinny I can bulk up again quite quickly due to muscle memory, I may as well give it a go a decide whether I prefer the skinny lean look or the big bulky look

5'11" 155 lbs. shredded sounds like Brad Pitt in Fight Club = attractive to most females IRL

Only the misc would look at 5'11" 155 shredded as unacceptable. lol @ bloatmaxing in order to impress dudes on a bbing forum

5'11 155 lean doesn't require any lifting whatsoever to achieve though, most athletic teens are that big. I'd also guess Brad Pitt was closer to 170 in fight club.

But who do you think would get more attention shirtless on a beach? A ripped non-lifting surfer dude with abs or a bloatcel?

I think somewhere in between the two would be most ideal.

I had those stats when I was 16-17. Definitively not big but to the average person I looked swole when wearing tight clothes.

True. Unless you walk around shirtless all the time, assuming natty you need to put on some mass (even if some of it is fat) if you want people to be able to tell that you lift without you having to actually tell them.

I think Pitt's physique in Troy, which is slightly bigger than his physique in Fight Club, is the goat build. I think it's safe to say that would be considered to be the most universally attractive.

I agree with that, what would you say he is in Troy? I would guess 170ish. Also in qurantine I’ve not been able to train legs properly so they’ve really shrunk, I should probably be able to gain 5lbs or so just on the lower body very quickly back in the gym

Not sure since people seem to fraud their height and bodyfat levels.
