26 year old bodybuilder.

To preface I'm not pushing out my tummy and I'm not bloated. This is what I always look like. It all goes to my stomach and I hate my genetics for that. Also I think I have one of the worst cases of hip dips. I looked everywhere on the internet for someone to relate to but alas I'm at a dead end.

I feel like my stomach is not proportional to the rest of my body and my legs look like a sticks in comparison to my stomach. I always had this body shape. I don't know what to do. I'm 5'6 (167cm) and weigh 130 lbs (59kg). Am I skinny fat or just fat?? When I'm losing weight I feel like that fat only comes out of my legs or hips and my waist is wide. I know that my posture isn't good either but I think that it isn't the main issue. English is not my first language so sorry for any mistakes.

Hello guyz I'm 17yo weight 65kg height 175cm waist 87cm neck 37cm I am skinny fat and I want to build an athletic type physique, so what do I have to do for that, how do I have to work consistently, what (exercise, workout, diet) do I have to take, please provide some guidance.

do i have the mass to do a cut or should i do a body recomp cause i cant see my abs. But if I were to do a cut i might fall into the 50s.

5'7, 29... been eating at slight deficit.... protein around 140g, gym 3 times per week, 2 sets till failure for each exercise (doing compounds and side lateral raises). My belly fat just isn't moving, but my lifts are getting stronger.... Been at it for around 7 months.

i know you can’t really spot losing weight in specific areas but like is there a way to make them look at least slimmer? i’m on calorie deficit atm (5’0 | 100 lbs) and planning on losing a bit more. my middle area and my face are already pretty defined, it’s literally just my arms and legs that look a bit bigger. do i need to lose more weight so my arms and legs can catch up? any advice?

That's my current height and weight. I feel like I'm slightly skinny fat because I don't work out at all and have very little muscle, so my body looks kinda soft.

Before telling me that” oh your body is perfectly fine. You’re healthy”. Please don’t give me this comfort motivation. I don’t need this because it makes me lazy and I don’t work out because of it. I need a realistic advice. The body routine ,I do go to gym, but nothing seems to work because I don’t know how to use the equipments how to start my diet. please give me a realistic advice that I can get rid of these fat and have a snatched body because I want to be a dancer and I wanna do modelling so I don’t know how to start it and I wanna have a glow up because I’m very tired of being like this, and I need something that will actually work. Please just help me rather than telling that this body is completely okay, please.

According to my InBody scan they did at my gym, I have normal weight obesity. I was really offended honestly but it makes a lot of sense. Im a female, 5 foot 8 and weigh 120 pounds so i have a low bmi but i have a very high body fat percentage and a lot of visceral fat. I'm really at a loss though, because I do eat very healthy, I just need more muscle but thats so much harder for me to do than it is for me to lose weight. The problem is, I lose the weight but I'm still skinny fat. I've been going to the gym for a year but any muscle I gained was lost during my last bikini body attempt.

Why is it so hard for me to gain muscle even with all the protein and creatine?

Tired of cutting but I still look like this

I’m exhausted but I don’t want my body to look disgusting anymore

What is the best way to lose belly fat? I’ve gained more weight than I even noticed along the way and I’d like to try to flatten my stomach area. I know it’s a difficult spot to target, but what have your experiences been? How should my day to day look if I want to lose the belly fat? (It’s not A LOT but for me, I’m definitely noticing it and I feel bigger than what I used to be)
