Do people really realize you can't "sculpt" yourself a new body?

[camp8989]

I find it so weird that people think they can actually do that, like change an entire body part. guys, are you aware of skeletal structure? you can't do that. you can't "sculpt" Jlo's ass, you can't "sculpt" Giselle Bundchen's legs. Work out to be healthy, isn't that where working out started? as a way to be healthy? I feel like now it's turned into this crazy thing where people post picture of the body they "want" and ask how to get it. I'm sorry, but you can't, learn to love the unique way your body is built for god's sake. Sorry for getting heated, but this really irritates me. Also though coming from some one who literally never works out... I might go to yoga every week or so if I am in the mood, but dancing around my room is more fun.

I will say that you can definitely drastically change to your body to how you want by working out. If you want a good a$$, squatting for a long consistent period of time builds you a fantastic a$$. So you can in general workout for the body you want, want great legs? workout your legs. Bigger pecks? Want your jaw line to standout more? Working out will do that for you. Also, there is absolutely Nothing impressive about Gisele Bundchen's legs what-so-ever. I have no idea why anyone would put her legs on a pedestal. There are plenty of women who squat who have far better legs that those Their thicker and more shapely.

yeah we have to accept our genetics. nothing we can do about it unless you want implants, but fake is shit. everyone should come to terms with their own body and realize that just because some people have 4% body fat and a "sculpted" body with a "chiseled" jawline, it doesn't mean the people without it are any less.

"dancing around my room is more fun." haha, can I join you?

In all seriousness though, I totally agree with you. I've started working out just to feel better in myself and lose some weight. I honestly couldnt care less how I look to other people. never have done.

BOOM finally someone said it... yeah people going to the gym and bringing picture of certain celebs telling the instructor I want to look like this... uh hun this is a gym not a barber shop. I'll get you toned and healthy but of you want to look like this surgery is needed. NEEEXT!

[camp8989]

seeeeriously

[NotJustAnotherGuy]

BOOM-- you're both wrong. Wasp waists, foot-binding, sizegenetics, noogleberry, kayan neck rings, facial yoga, centuries of well documented history say you're 100% wrong. And modern science shows "big boned" doesn't exist. Our body shape is predominately fat and muscle, and has very little to do with your bones. Seriously.

[camp8989]

I can't believe you just cited foot binding... seriously. our bodies have a frame, it is obvious, and it is also science. facial yoga? good lord.

[NotJustAnotherGuy]

I can't believe you're so ignorant to historical culture and long standing proof that environment (such as clothing) dictates shape.

ignorant lol as if these are good, healthy examples to change your body. thanks.

[Opinion Owner]

You obviously lack reading comprehension skills, to warp your body to unnatural aka not natural to the way you currently are isn't healthy warping oneself will change the way you look but it ultimately isn't good for you. Also what I think the OP was trying to express is that people think they can radically change how they look and effectively look like someone whose body type is very different, as with Giselle Bundchen's legs, she is 5'11" with legs proportioned to her height a person who is 5'5" won't have those long legs because of her body proportion. Save your insults and do some logical thinking and stop relying on Wikipedia to do the thinking for you. @notjustanotherguy

[camp8989]

stop assuming things about me and by her legs I meant their appearance and tone of the muscle, obviously, jeeze get a life.

[Opinion Owner]

Whoa I was just addressing what justanotherguy said not assuming anything about you. @camp8989

[camp8989]

ooh haha sorry

[Opinion Owner]

Yup np

[NotJustAnotherGuy]

Even if I did use wiki, it at least be a source.. whereas your is only your opinion, backed by nothing. In fact, it's well proven to be wrong. The fact remains everything I mentioned truly exists and its existence is well-documented. To deny it, no more makes it false than scribbling darkness on the walls of your room shades out the sun.

I used extreme examples, to prove that you can control the shape of your body to even extremes. If you can get a wasp waist, you can most certainly get an hour glass body. And although extremes are unhealthy, subtleties are not. I wasn't aware I'd have to explain something so simple like that. But there it is, all cleared up for you.

P. S. There are plenty of short girls with skinny legs. Height does not dictate body fat %. Throwing out statements, pretending they're facts, won't get you anywhere in life.

[NotJustAnotherGuy]

P. P. S. My reading comprehension is likely well beyond yours, considering how poorly your thoughts are constructed. I mean... "unnatural aka not natural", really? Could you be more redundant? Did that somehow sound smarter or clearer in your head?

[camp8989]

"NotJustAnotherGuy" I think you probably are... just another guy.

[camp8989]

"P. P. S'' lol

[Ricosuavemente]

I don't know I used to be 135lbs real skinny 5ft 10in and I wanted to sculpt my body a certain way. 5 years later I'm I began bodybuilding and now 176lbs very muscular and I achieved the result I wanted.

[Ricosuavemente]

I think some people want to achieve a result that is beyong their reach is when it becomes a problem. If you set realistic goals and stick with it, you can achieve it.

[camp8989]

yeah, you can lose weight and put on muscle, but you can't swap body parts which, really, I see women trying to do all the time... even on this site girls post pictures like "how can I get this butt?" you can't, it's not your butt!
