before and after

This cutie has gone from lanky to beefy. it's a shame the after picture doesn't have the same smile as the before. you'd think that having gone from normal to muscle man, you wouldn't be able to wipe the smile off his face.

I love before and after shots. They are so much fun. It's great to be able to compare the before him with the after him. His arms are like twice as big. His shoulders are like cannon balls. His neck is thicker. His chest and deeper. It's the same guy, but he's transformed. He's gone from cutie to muscle stud.

Progression shots, pictures taken at various stages as a guy gets progressively bigger and more muscular, are even better. It's like being able to see somebody transform from geek to god in front of your eyes.



Take for instance this guy, who's documented his growth with these pictures. Not only has his posing improved from first to last, but his body had transformed from positively gangly to out and out ripped muscle stud.

The transformation is just amazing in both cases. Being able to see both the starting point and the end point lets us appreciate the magnitude of the change. For me, muscles are that much more exciting when you consider that they actually grew. The bigger the guy is, the more his muscles had to grow to get to where he is. The guy used to be smaller. Now he's bigger. That's just sexy. Not only is he bigger, his muscles are firmer with better shape.

When the little guys are transformed into big and beefy muscle men, they've taken control of their bodies and made themselves into something they weren't before. They have literally made themselves, built their bodies, muscled up. That dedication and control combined with the change and their increased size and strength is very powerful. It's about the sexiest thing imaginable.
