My opinion on proportionality
Now if I had a video camera I'd film but I don't so I'm just talk here.
Proportionality in my opinion, in terms of bodybuilding, is how every muscle compliments all the other muscles in the body to the point it all 'fits' together really well. Now genetics can play a role but I'm not gonna dive into that. But yeah I reckon proportionality of all muscle groups, is the key to an awesome looking physique regardless of our goal whether it'd be; bodybuilding, fitness modelling, competitions or just looking good.
Now again this is all my opinion. The amount of muscle someone should build should consider their height. Reason for this, I reckon a shorter person doesn't look good with too much muscle. I think the term for that is "manlet" and it describes a short person building all this muscle to compensate for their height. Now I'm somewhere between 5'9.5 to 5'10. Sooo not being exactly the tallest person ever, I'm constantly trying to visualise how much muscle to build before I build way too much and I'd look unattractive to the ladies haha. Also I'm really working hard to get my upper chest, back thickness and legs to become a bit larger so it'll complement my arms, shoulders, traps and middle chest thickness. So for me it's a continuous process.
In conclusion, I reckon everyone should strive for a very well proportional physique so that one muscle group completely overshadows and other muscle group. Anyways I'm off bye.

Quick progress update
Hey sorry for not posting frequently but this is due to a shoulder injury and a build up of Uni crap.
Anyways before I started any form of weight loss regiment, I was at 21-22% body fat.
Now I'm around 14% body fat! It's a slow process but I'll keep it up.
Hopefully my shoulder recovers and I can work on gaining size in my deltoids and chest again.
All the best

Tried something new...
Now don't judge me because I haven't tried this before but I gotta say this was SOMETHING ELSE!
Today at the gym I trained back and I put a 5kg dumbbell between my legs and fuuuuuarrrkk you can feel a fuckload of difference than using your own body weight.
Give it a go!

Good meal
Alrighty I've made another good meal to share...
What you need is a whole grain wrap, cooked egg whites, shredded chicken breast (cooked) and a few slices of tomato.
After you put it altogether, pop it in the microwave for extra warmth (it's cold in Australia ATM) and then consume.
There's heaps of protein, good carbs and minimal fats. Boom!
