Hey fellas! How's it going???? I hope ya'll are hangin'! lolz.
Alotta you guys have no idea that there's something like "body shape" for guys...well let me enlighten you a bit! :D
Well obviously, every man has a different shape, size and body structure from the next..."but what are they?" I hear you ask?... Well grab on to something cos you're about to get your mind blown!!! (LOL...well not really, but just read on :D)
THE INVERTED TRIANGLE:
As the name implies, men with this kind of body shape do resemble an upside down triangle (otherwise known as the "V" shape). This shape is very masculine...guys with this shape come across as strong and bold
The main traits of an inverted triangle are:
- Broad shoulders and broad chest
- A very narrow waist and narrow hips
- Well developed arm muscles, might be bulky
- A heavier top half
THE RHOMBOID/TRAPEZOID:
This body shape is very similar to the inverted triangle, except the waist is not as narrow. This shape is well proportioned and masculine, making it easily admired by the ladies! *wink*
The main traits of a rhomboid are:
- Broad shoulders and broad chest
- A top half larger than the bottom
- A medium waist (unlike the narrow one of an inverted triangle)
- A well proportioned body
THE RECTANGLE:
This body shape appears straight up and down. This is a common body shape for men especially as they get older.
Main traits of a rectangle are:
- The shoulder, waist and chest are all the same width
- Very thick through the abdomen
THE TRIANGLE:
Imagine an upside down inverted triangle, well that's basically what a triangle shape looks like...lol. This body shape has a wider lower body than shoulders.
Main traits of a triangle shape are:
- Bottom heavy
- Narrower chest and wider hips
- Have sloping shoulder line
THE OVAL:
This is another common body shape for most older men....the shape is just as the name implies...hehe.
Main traits of an oval are:
- Overall round appearance
- Large stomach
So what shape are you guys??? If you're not sure, stand in front of a full length mirror in just your underwear. From the outline of your body, what shape are you most like???
In addition to having different body types, men also have different body structures....we have:
1. The averagely built man
2. The tall man
3. The short man
4. The heavy man
5. The thin man
6. The muscular man
...and combinations such as:
1. Tall and heavy
2. Tall and thin
3. Short and stout
4. Short and thin
Not to worry, it doesn't just end here....i will be writing on the best ways to dress for each body type, structure and combinations.
Until my next post....Stay Safe,
Lots and Lots of Love
