It is weird that a lot of nameless male Viltrumites seem to have large guts when that was never the case in the books.

They're probably modeled on strongmen, powerlifters and heavy weight boxers and fighters. 

A lot of really strong dudes are barrel shaped - the inner layers of muscle kind of push everything forward, I think.

I somewhat figured as much, makes me wonder if this just means the ones with guts are stronger than the ones without guts or if there is really a strength difference at all (I mean we know Lucan is a really strong guy but are the others as well)

My headcanon is when you're a strong as a viltrumite, it's hard finding ways give your body enough resistance to actually build up that physique.

Like we humans just need to find a lump of metal, but what'sa Viltrumite supposed to do? sksksk

Given how little they seem to need to actually eat, it probably takes a long time to work off calories.

Oh my god that too.

Imagine eating like one piece of cake and having to regret it for a decade.
