how take but i can’t help but feel like there’s less of a point in trying to get in shape since i have bad genetics (namely a chest gap, long femurs, and a relatively high calf insertions). i’m probably still not going to like my body no matter what i do

OP, you’re just making excuses to not do the work. I did that too but when I started doing the work I wound up looking good.

I have bad insertions. when I put on more size they were less noticeable and I started having more fun getting stronger rather than focusing primarily on looks. yeah social media sucks to watch and feels like everyone’s jacked with perfect bodies but go out into the real world and notice how much better and stronger and healthier you look than 90% of the population

what capability is there to value if other people are also capable of getting in shape, moving their body, and having a more aesthetically appealing body? at that point, i really wish i could feel good despite that, but i don’t think i can

no i’m not. you got to have insertions that didn’t make you insecure, i can’t definitively say the same

i get that maintaining mobility is important, but it honestly feels like it’d be difficult to appreciate it if i don’t like my body

If you’re worried about insertions you’re overthinking and making excuses.

the whole point was to be able to get to a point that i don’t feel bad about my body. if i have bad insertions, which would obstruct that goal, then… for example, my calf insertions are relatively high and so they barely grow and i literally don’t like wearing shorts. that will likely never change

thanks for the encouragement. i have tried speaking to a professional (and even had a personal trainer for a bit of time), then also tried other sport activities (bjj and climbing), but not much luck with any of that

in the real world i feel like i see people with better insertions than me still tbh (at least for calves). i also admittedly didn’t have much faith that i’d actually change the way i feel about my body if i were to gain muscle since i might not like the way it looks

is it even worth it anymore if my mindset hasn’t changed at all after what i’ve tried so far? plus for the calf things, what were the guy’s insertions like? if they were low, i wouldn’t be surprised if he were actually able to grow them
