2 Underweight and under muscled 

3 Right weight and under muscled 

4 Overweight and enough muscle 

5 Underweight and enough muscle

7  Overweight and more muscle than needed 

8 Underweight and more muscle than needed 

9 Right weight and more muscle than needed


1,2,3 are always a problem. In more ways than one. 

4 is not as problematic as BMI or traditional metrics indicate. Long walks and a little portion control would be nice. 

5 is rare and takes a lot of work. Think Brad Pitt in Fight Club 

6 is even rarer. It’s a unicorn. I mean a mythical beast. Not a company that has yet to turn a profit. 

7 can be oddly problematic. It looks good, scary and we admire it. But it comes with it’s own set of problems. 

8 even rarer than 5. Marry it. 

9 the statues that the Greeks built to mess with our self esteem
