body type?

[JTiedes]

would you rather be jacked or wiry?
jacked= huge and muscly
wiry= skinny looking and suprisingly strong

personally id rather be wiry, it adds an element of suprise to your fights, and its easier to maintain ( in my opinion ie; lack of supplements ect) also i think when guys are huge it looks freaky, i would never want to be a muscle head. the fact that im closer to being wiry is just a bonus :p

[Sgt_Major]

Id prefer to be in between. The look of muscle, but strength that is greater than the look.

A build like:

would always be good :D

Im about 25% there :D

Is that animation masturbating??? :D

[Sgt_Major]

maybe ..... ;)

[Maverick]

Jacked, people who look muscular have more influence on other people and are more attractive to women.

[Kwajman]

Masturbating? Jacking? :eek:

[Daffy]

I would rather be somewhere in between. Strong enough to get power in and lean enough to keep the speed, flexability, and cardio up without too too much extra work.

[wayofthedragon]

well, no one wants to be too big...and no one wants to be too small...sooo...
hmmmm, for me it would have to be................................................ .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ..........................
hmmmm, the way I am now i reckon. I am happy with just the way I am:)

[hazzamoffin]

I wouldn't want to be huge, as i don't think it looks that good.

My ideal would fall somewhere between the two, but as to where i'll only find out when i get there.

[wayofthedragon]

posting again, this time on a more serious note:D I think that no one wants to be too much of anything. I'm pertty sure (tho may be wrong) that most people would want to be in between rather than either or, how ever we all have different and various body types. I think that a person should look deep within their self and realize that it does'nt matter what body type you are, because weather you're big and bolky with huge muscles, a very powerful little man, or somewhere in between that is you, and in martial arts....it really doesn't matter the size on the outside, what matters is the skills on the inside. Because without those skills on the inside, the body on the outside means nothing if you can't even use it to defend yourself

[Athleng Nordic]

To quote the Candyman - I gotta be me babe, I just gotta be me.

[Ikken Hisatsu]

I'd like to be like that ripped guy in my avatar. OH WAIT :D

[Sgt_Major]

I'd like to be like that ripped guy in my avatar. OH WAIT :D

Where? I still see that scrawny guy that you used to have! ;)

:D

[JTiedes]

yea id like to be the same body type as i am now, just a lil bit slimmer, and im working on that :D. but that means a nice combo of both types, just like everyone else :p

[Nyx]

i have a beer belly and I am proud of it. :D

[Ikken Hisatsu]

seriously though-
http://www.so-net.ne.jp/feg/k-1gp/images/040707/photo01b.jpg
thats what I hope to look like and i am almost there. skinny? kind of, but I prefer to spend time training than on weights, plus I like to stay in my weight class.

[Nick K]

I'd like to be like that ripped guy in my avatar. OH WAIT :D

I'd like to be like my avatar too.

[Lucharaan]

I voted for the last one, because I don't know what the others mean.

[Lucharaan]

I'd like to be like that ripped guy in my avatar. OH WAIT :D

ewww :eek:

[Cudgel]

I would want to be the way I am only moreso.
which is on the wiry side
I dont really buy the whole "women dig men who are big and muscly" and besides who nedes all thoseb big muscles.

[shaolin_hendrix]

I'd like to be wiry in a Bruce Lee way.

[Ross.B]

I thing it is best to have a balance of the two if your to huge and muscly you can not move so fast. If your Skinny ....... you will brack lol :D

[Yukimushu]

215lbs and i'll be happy :)

[Iai-do master]

oops i put jacked i would rather be like my size im good! lol

[Davey Bones]

Wiry. I know from powerlifting my body is designed for lean muscle mass, not big bodybuilder mass. And at my height, I'd look absolutely ridiculous all jacked up. Besides, I'm a speedster. Wiry is better for me.

[RFWright]

[QUOTE=SilatPupil]Id prefer to be in between. The look of muscle, but strength that is greater than the look.

Another one who agrees with Silat here...

[Sgt_Major]

:D Im the leader.....Im the leader......


Well, in MY head anyhoo.... :p

[gemtkd]

I put wirey, probably cos' I'm so short but broad, almost stumpy! and find that I'm not as fast as I should be! I'm surprisingly strong though.

[Another Muay Thai Guy]

I'm definitely a wiry guy now, but ultimately I would prefer to be somewhere inbetween, but I'm happy as I am at the moment.

[JinkokMike]

I'm definitely a wiry guy now, but ultimately I would prefer to be somewhere inbetween, but I'm happy as I am at the moment.

same here,
definately wiry so that you may surprise you opponent with your speed,strenght and technique

[Jujitm]

As I am now really well perhaps bigger pecs though :D

and I would like to have a full chin ( I broke some off in a fall :cry: )

[Bitsy]

I would deffinately fall into the wiry catagory! I'm pretty petite and my skill and strength are often underestimated. I wouldn't want to change though i might like to be a bit more muscular. You see when i grapple i usually jus get tosed around a bit until i'm pulled or dropped to the mat, however once i get down to the mat wiry wins in the end!lol I like having the element of surprise and my aponents are definatley surprised even if i don't always win!

[Cain]

I prefer the physique of thai boxers, IMO the toughest people on the planet but looking like your average guy ;)

true they rock!! :D

[Jesh]

Definately wiry :D

[seiki juku kid]

mon dieu what kinda discussion!!! someone will love you whatever you look like so does it really matter? (and there's always someone who can kick your butt too so...)

[karate princess]

if i had to chose wiry, but preferably a bit of both? hey, wat about curvy for all those ladies on MAP eh? :)

[Meowmeows]

Im extremely wiry lol.
Im a tiny little, 17 year old girl and
Ive trained in the Martial Arts for 9 years.

PS. I agree with Karate Princess in
needing the choice of curvey for the ladies

[fugepilot]

Another wiry one here - Mother always said I was deceptive. :eek:

[Tyranith]

I'm extremely wiry and want to stay that way. I have barely any fat whatsoever on me. It makes me look quite thin, but I'm quite strong (especially for my weight) and extremely fast. I want to put on a bit more muscle, but not too much.

[inteq9]

I think I could live with this:

http://www.warriorforce.com/images/rosspunch.jpg

But really I'm impressed with Bill Goldberg's physique, I would probably rather look like him, but just a little smaller so I can stay a bit less than 160lb.

http://www.ne.jp/asahi/minowa/mlbzone/ttmgoldbergb.jpg

[Deedum]

wiry here too and 6'2"

[CCG2]

Maybe it's the WWE fanboy side of me, but I'd definitely prefer to be TOTALLY JACKED.

[Gray]

Mmm... 'lean' would do me fine (kinda halfway I guess). For now I'm a lil on the wiry side. Very light, but solid, you know?

[Xue Fang]

Wiry for myself and wiry for the men too. ;) A bit of musculature is okay but all those guys with huge muscles just look like so many plastic action men to me. It's just wrong. In fact it has the opposite effect I think guys would like it to have - far from being attractive I find it positively repelling. Or am I just weird? :confused:

[mud slide]

for me personaly I reckon a well developed chest, back and shoulders, on top off a well conditioned wirey frame suits me best. At least thats what I'm working to achieve :) That way you get speed and flexability as well as the muscular power where you need it. Although you might end up looking like an anime drawing if you take it to the exteme :D

[Serpent]

Lanky!!!

[Dojo]

Me wiry. I am tall and thin, but do have some stamina :)

[battlestone]

I would prefur toned with a little bulk, for some show of strenght but not so much bulk that it slowes me down or makes me dependant on it.

[Alexander]

Toned and very strong - but not too obvious. Being immensly suave, which incidentally I am :D , it can never be about what you show - only what you conceal.

Basically not seen to be flabby whilst in clothes - but once a chick takes them off she's got to be impressed.

[New Guy]

I like my indivual muscle groups to be jacked, but look wiry overall... so that I can be as friendly as I want while as brutal as as want.

[CQC]

I'm fine with my body right now, just need to fix a bit on the tummy.

[tellner]

Slab-sided like old-time strongmen, but faster than I look.

[TheDarkJester]

Jacked, people who look muscular have more influence on other people and are more attractive to women.


Sounds like someones trying to compensate for a lack of charisma.

Me.. I'll go with Wiry.. because when it comes down to it and your shirts off and you're still chiseled out of solid marble.. females dig it anyways.

[Cosmo Kramer]

wiry is not good neither is being too jacked, somewhere in between

[niclans]

wiry is not good neither is being too jacked, somewhere in between

Hehe, i think that just describes me

[tkdgirl01]

I'm a bit overweight, but very much in shape. I think I surprise new students. I'm real flexible, and don't get out of breath easily (it takes a lot to do that). Then again, I'm not obese either. I just weigh more than I like to. After starting a new class 8 months ago, I've lost 15 lbs.

[Rhino]

Standard build but quick and strong - whatever thats called lol

[the hunting fly]

I'm a girl. So girly build, people assume you don't know what you're doing/can't take it.
The more they think that the more surprised they are when you kick their butts :D

[pmitch89]

I'm jacked, 212, football player (american), wrestler, judoka. I don't like to brag or sound cocky it's just what other ppl say about my size and strength.

[zetec-ems]

curvy i lost 2 stone but just cant shift rest of weight :(

[HulkUSMC]

I would have to say Jacked am 69 inches tall and 245lbs and love the fact that my stregth and speed still suprises people.

[Gajah Silat]

Same as I am really 6ft & 15 and a half stone. Could maybe lose a stone I suppose. Other than that I'm happy with my body. It's never really concerned me that much.

I have always been genetically blessed & always get asked if I work out. I don't with weights but do exercise & I'm a very strong swimmer.

[wildirishrose19]

well since I'm a girl I wouldn't like to be a a very muscular person..I would like to have strength,speed and flexibility but still look feminine..maybe something like lara croft :p

[doublelegtackle]

obviously jacked! then ppl wouldn't even want to fight u and u are hella strong like me. :cool
