Sure for health. But really it's possible to be healthy and like what i said have proper physical activity without being muscular. I just mean no muscles showing.
Is it necessary for men to have muscles?

No, muscles showing is not necessary for many women. Personally I do not care, some men can be strong/fit but just have a none-muscular body shape.. though I do want someone who is physically active, but that is for sharing interests and him being healthy and not so much looks. Now you are still young so it is not so critical being active for your health, but it will be in +5 years, so by then I hope you will try to find some physical activity you like.. it is necessary to keep a healthy body for many other things than finding a partner :)
it doesn’t really matter to me. as long as you have healthy habits such as not eating wendy’s everyday and take care of yourself and don’t smell weird i’m fine with it.
Nope. I have the upper body strength of spongebob but I'm a very smart person and I know how to apply my knowledge properly. It depends on what people are attracted to because if people are going off physique I'm not going to attract anybody. But if someone is interested in a person who applies knowledge, works hard, and is an open communicater I might have a chance if physique is not a preference. Also having muscles certainly helps for most cases but muscles won't help you when you need to write a 3000 line project in Javascript that is due in 5 days.
Let's say your body is like a car. Some people use their car to go to work every day for years. Imagine if they said, 'does my car really need to be maintained?' You would think they're nuts. Obviously at some point it's going to breakdown and then they can't get to work. Your art career is going to suffer a setback if you have a heart attack. This becomes more obvious the older you get. It's better to maintain than to ignore your body.

Not what i saying i am not maintaining it but i'm still talking about is it necessary for the car to actually shine? Or is it necessary for the car to actually have a brand new quality engine?
Analogies are never perfect. But to answer your question: people who don't have standards are more often surprised by unexpected issues. By the way your health is potentially way more expensive than fixing any care. The cost of medical bills is potentially unlimited, unless you have good health insurance.
I don't think you understand... not having much muscle indicates you aren't maintaining. The natural intended state is to have more muscle that are used to do natural type work. Watching netflix/sitting in a chair all day isn't what our ancestors did. But yes, you are free to do things your way.
Well if you look like that. YOU DIFINITELY look like me bro 😂. Welcome welcome fam. Shake hands 🤝 But I tell you what... I do like sport I slightly do it beside gaming and reading, I like walking, running, football whenever possible. But it doesn't help if your diet is not good enough. We need to know the reason behind these body fats, and eliminate them from the deit. After that it is going to be a very easy task. So easy. If you're like me 100% you know your tummy grows and shrinks from time to time if you're changing deit, I am trying to not let that give me demotivating hope.
it's not necessary to be fit (or muscular), but fitness goes hand in hand with health. the man in the photo looks like he could exercise more and eat better. he doesn't need to if he doesn't want to, but i'm sure he'd feel a lot more better if he did.
Not necessarily. Many that looks fit, do fitness aren't really healthy even if we would think that.
Enlarged heart, hormonal unbalance, fatigue system, sexual problems, skin problems, cancer, kidney problems, liver issues, their health is a ticking time bomb, mental issues...
He doesn't necessarily need to do more exercise. More likely need to look over his nutrition habits, sleeping habits and negativ stress. maybe some underlying health issues like pre diabetes or something else. Drug's.
For that person on the pictures. Maybe. Have seen to many with that kind of body and they exercise a lot in one or an other way. The thing is if we have some medical issues or have a mismatching life style it won't show on the outside for vast majority of people. not even with gains.
Though everybody has muscles they are necessary to a certain degree. There´s no necessacity for a visible shown sixpack but a strong muscal system reduces the chance of getting different illnesses. You don´t need to look like a body builder but it´s not wrong to reduce some belly fat. Sport isn´t easy for me either but it reduces the chance of getting illnesses like diabetes.
What's more important that they are in good health. It's okay if you don't have muscles that basically display themselves. Just make sure you are taking care of yourself and at least make time for exercise, because in the long run when you get older you're going to pay for what your younger self did.
As for me, I exercise a lot, I eat healthy, and I do have very noticeable muscle on my body. I don't necessarily show off, but when it's a hot day and I'm wearing a short sleeve or sleeveless shirt, I can't help that people look at my arms or chest at that. You never have to be the biggest guy, but make sure that your strength and health will allow you to be self-sufficient and sufficient at work.
Before my boyfriend I dated guys who were very skinny and tall and that's what I found attractive and still kinda do but my boyfriend is a lot muscular and tall. He wasn't my usual type but I find him to be extremely attractive inside and out. Basically everyone likes different things "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
It really depends on your goal. Because someone could get muscular in an unhealthy way and a healthy way. And for different reasons. So one persons health journey may not require them to have muscle mass and another might.
So what are your goals & reasons for getting in better shape?
Well then it seems that you aren't eating for them to show and/or you aren't doing physical exercise that causes a hypertrophic response and promotes muscle synthesis.
Being as fit as I am has made an astronomical difference for both my health and attractiveness.
And it is not about physique only. When someone has self management it would necessarily reflect on their self care to begin with.
You are showing you have standards. The same I do with my body is the same I tend to do with everything else: excellence.

No one saying that there is no difference and attractiveness. But what i'm still saying is is that even necessary? Because looks can also be deceiving. Anyone who seems not healthy can actually have enough health that can sustain his life until 90s also because they're not trying to be obese as well. And also there are even muscular people who cannot make it at that age. And of course i'm talking about most people
Longer can also be better also because motivation is in people who likes to live longer. But ok lets also say there are people with that body who dies early. Sure I can still say they're living better and happily regardless. Im not generalizing that all they do is slouch and eat fast food.
When i first heard "in your experience" i stopped right there. Because that's your experience. If you wanna generalize that those are people who doesn't train then i you should also consider there are people who had been working out but they don't get muscles showing. Also because that's not their goal. And you know what else is unnecessary? making slow videos like that.
I'm 66 and more cut and fit than most guys in their 20s. I can tell you that if you look like that at your age, your health is going to deteriorate rapidly as you get older. It's not healthy. You need better diet and more exercise. If you don't you will regret it later.
Depends on that your height, and face, women have three areas of what they find attractive, height, face, body. If your body is lacking and not ideal. Your height and face should be ideal to compensate,
You need sufficient muscle to enable your body to function and to enable you to do what you want to do in life. The rest is cosmetic. There is no need to be able to lift a small car in reality. We have machines to do that for us.

My boyfriend looks similar to you and I didn't even notice until he himseld pointed it out. I think to me body isn't really as important as face and personality.
And the nice thing for the women is that when he dies early they get the life insurance and his house. He might want to look at it more from the POV of what's best for him tho.
@Ryfyle I am being honest though. The guy has some chub but his body is fine to me. Maybe someone else would say differently... Also don't worry no one could bomb my house anyway I live in a hole in the ground 😉
Haha yeah but that's because today is a sensitive topic for some people. And often anyone who would answer "yes" to this question would be seen as a shallow person. So it's hard to come up with a satisfying answer.
And maybe i should say, i dont think you need to muscles to have a girlfriend. Maybe to have a really beautiful and sexy one you might require muscles. Even then not always.
Yeah of course, actually you only need to want a girlfriend in order to get one, if that's the question, some women are like "anything goes" in terms of datable men.
I honestly do not believe that there are people incapable of dating anyone as long as their standards are the lowest in existence.
Also whats ironic is people do speak their minds when it comes to SJWs, Karrens, Rapists, Offenders and other dangerous people but they are afraid of guys just seem to be not toned? What planet are you living in? because we don't know that on Earth
Oh I understand that you made a mealy mouth excuse for your pathetic body, that part is quite clear. You don't have to need to have definition, just arms that look like you won't shit yourself trying to open a bottle of Soylent.
At least i'm not making any excuses to have a mouth full of shit like you. I mean people like me with a kind of body is actually very common. So what are you going to do about? Are you going to mass murder them? Because you will only prove how hypocritical you are
Same thing here. Why would I? Like the mass shooting at a theater you claimed, if that's your deep thoughts, I imply you would do the same and with your hostile attitude towards them
here's the deal, you fell for obvious bait due to your obvious insecurities. Any confident individual would have passed it off as rude noise, but you have something to defend.
For the same reason your insecurity is showing. Anyone would just give a proper argument and criticism without being so judgmental about it. I guess you don't know the difference. And this is exactly why most people are not acting like you because they know better words to say than to make hasty assumptions like what you do.
Spam all you want. i can always delete your comment. Unless you want to focus on the actual argument. It's either you're acting like an idiot or you're actually one
Another lame excuse. Sure it's boring now that you have nothing else to say but you sure have the will to start shit. I see. It's because you're running out of logic that's why
Oh then you don't care that you're just an insecure grown ask man that is just replying just because i will. Then ok i'll play your game and also be just going to reply because you will. I'm not here to spoil you
Then i dont care. Still deleting. I love how you're actually trying to get smart if you get threatened that your reply is going to get deleted. But sure go show your stupidity again
No one gives a fuck about what "arguments" your soy filled noodle arms can clack onto a keyboard. Like holy fuck you spent 40+ replies to a moron. How fucking sad is that.
No one gives a fuck except you desperately trying to say something. So what if i spent 40+ replies to a moron? Did i even say it's a waste of my time? I'm not like you who just want to start shit and complain but still so much better than being a moron likes 40 times like what you do
Who's complaining? I love to start shit with some dude who's begging for acceptance for their sickly, milky pseudopods he calls arms that strain when opening their daily Soylent Ration.
What really sad is that your Languid flippers you call hands, leave your raw and unattended member eager to fill the gun shot wound of your future victims when you shoot up that mall full of Stacys and Chads.
Obviously you are specially your very first comment complaining about people like those in the picture and also like how you complain this is getting stupid like like it a waste of time and you want to leave. But still though what is still in fact you're still the only one who is not accepting that kind of body here. Ironically assuming i'm going to start shooting at a theater when you yourself sounded like you're going to start shooting people like them. Really i thought you're just going to spam now why are you talking properly this time? So i see you are back to arguments and i thought you don't care.
And i also give a short response to your shit comment. You must really quite think highly of your stupid judgmental mentality. By the way you still haven't really proven your point yet. So yes i'm just saying
I got no point to prove. You posted evidence that you look allergic to gains, the point was already made. This is merely an irritating campaign to drive you up a wall and to shit on your Body by Soy.
Then you're just saying random shit for the sake of your ego. You also seem allergic to reality that that's what most people have. And you are also allergic to proving point
