Symmetry or Size?

When it comes to the kind of men you like or aspire to become, do you value Symmetry (wide shoulders, tapering down to a narrow waist, and quads that flair out) or do you feel that sheer powerful looking size is more important/attractive. To help understand this question, do you like the physique of Chad Ray Martin or Nasser El Sonbaty?

If it comes down to those two, I'd take Nasser.

Size Wins!

Honestly, I'm rather surprised that size beats out symmetry. The "average" American finds guys like Sagi Kalev and Chad Ray Martin far more appealing to the eye than Markus Ruhl or Ronnie Coleman (this is just my opinion; not based on studies). But, this isn't a "scientific" poll either. After all, the name of this website is MuscleGrowth.org! LOL.

Size, I love size. Can't ever be too big. But Chad Ray Martin does have a hot bod. Woof!

Well, I voted for symmetry, but I LOVE size! There is just something about thick hulking muscularity that will always turn heads.

I myself have never been a fan of the ripped competition look...... I like that balance of muscularity and thickness. Yeah, now THAT'S the ticket.

I saw a guy the other day at the supermarket that was about my height (6' 1"), and this guy had symmetry and he was so thick that even with a sweatshirt on you could make out EVERY muscle in his back, traps and arms! And of couse as a fellow lifter I had to say howdy. LOL! And he was cool to boot!

Size is what I find hottest. Symmetry and definition is what I have and make the most of. Ideally I need a huge guy to "worship" who really ADORES definition and balance. Like you bigguy. You, by the way, are TOTALLY AWESOME. As if you didn't know (smile).

Symmetry for me. I know lots of you guys get off on the big monsters, but I prefer the Bob Paris/Frank Zane types, maybe a little bigger than them, but the Jay Cutler monsters on steriods turn me off.

I defenetly love size !
I like the freakest bodybuilders.
But lots of huge guys have great upper body and crapy thigh and claves...
And that's a real shame. Great legs and great claves increase the massiveness of a huge guy.
