Hands down, one of the best videos on understanding bodybuilding that I’ve ever seen. I never comment on KZread stuff, but this was absolutely fascinating! Every bodybuilder needs to watch this. I actually think it would help the mental health of a huge percentage of us bodybuilders out there. You explain genetics in a way that helps us understand and accept our bodies…eliminating the frustration when we “can’t build this” or “can’t look like that”. Allows us to step back, understand our ratios, bone lengths, tendon lengths, etc….and learn how to work WITH our genetics…instead of against it.

Thank you for taking the time and effort to share this video. Your explanation of ratios, bone structure, muscles bellies, tendons and limbs has given me a point of focus when looking at a physique that better explains what I am looking at. Thank you very much for this!

Not sure how this came across my feed, but hands-down, the most thorough and informative video on physiques I’ve ever seen.

Joe, you've really been delivering these past couple of weeks, I love it

Wish I knew this growing up, thank you for this. I finally understand exactly how genetics play a role in BB.

That was very well done. Thanks for putting that together.

I absolutely loved this video! Thank you very much.

I've had similar idea in my head for a while, but no one have ever compiled or say it out any better way than this. Thank you so much for the info.

One of the most informative videos ever seen.👏

Very informative I've known about a lot of this but the muscle belly vs tendon section was gold never even thought of it that way.

I still Ronnie Coleman who is one of my favorite bodybuilder of all time was taking gear at younger age

Love these new types of videos. Awesome stuff Joe :)

Great info Joe. Thank you so much!

this style of video is amazing im here for all the knowledge 🙏🏾

Thank you for putting in the billion years. This was awesome and much appreciated.

Thanks for all the information.

Awesome video mate! Keep up the great work!

Thank you for this video! Very well explained and thought out. I always try to explain it to people exactly like you have said but I needed the pics. Now I’ll just send the link! Lol

Very well explained. Thank you for that 🙏💪

We need a part2 or a more in depth version of this in the future Full on geek mode 🙏🙏

finally an exhaustive video on this fundamental topic, thanks joe🙏

Right to the point and concise. Good shit.

Europeans generally have the best genetics given that they account for such a large proportion of bodybuilders while having the smallest population.

Joe you look great man. I think there are levels with genetics and when we dial in sleep, nutrition etc it’s amazing how much we can transform. I’m definitely proof of this at 42. I’m not a big guy but I’m maximized a lot of factors which helped a lot. Thankfully I have a 31 inch waist so that helps. Because my shoulders aren’t so good lol. I’m working on it, anyway thanks for the great video. I’ve learned so much from you and John Meadows (RIP) and you both really helped me transform from someone who just goes to the gym to someone who gets asked for help now in the gym. Much appreciated!!

Could you continue with this type of videos? For example, explaining how exercise selection can affect to structure, "V-shape", long-insertion arms or a wide hip. Thank's for your work

Highly relevant video after Ramon vs Wesley

Very thorough and informative. The slightly sarcastic comments add to it ... " sorry Chris, everything else you got is good, shut up..." comedy gold right there. Good job.

I have big joints but fortunately I have very good genetics for building muscle. Small hips and broad clavicles is another pro I got. Great video.

Very relateable, I wasted 2.5 years workout out without proper nutrition

Best video ever

I am very impressed by this lecturexplanation. Assiduous and insightful. This is coming from an Ifbb pro. Martin Martinez 1997 Lightweight NPC Nationals winner!

Awesome video. Surprised you didn’t touch on Big Ramy’s genetics

Idk how but make more videos like this pls

GOAT video @hyperttoohy coach

44:00 Good video, but Flex Wheeler is supposed to have had one of the broadest clavicles? I really doubt that, I would even say it was rather narrow.

Truth. And that’s just what we know about 😅

Ronnie Coleman looked his best at 198lbs without steroids. His current health situation is sad.

well genetics is everything from you skin tone to how durable your joints are. so, every single thing about your body is genetics. as far as genetics in bodybuilding go, i had 2 really important examples in my life. for anyone who has been in the sport for a while will remember the Mens physique competitor Jeff Seid. He went to my highschool and we wrestled in the same weight class. and me being 17 and him being 15 we were both super lean. he was good enough to earn a pro card and i wasnt good enough to get anywhere near a stage, at literally the exact same height and muscle mass. so i realized at that point that structure and muscle bellies are something that i just didnt have (at least the god tier structure he had). i also was a trainer at la fitness when i was 22 and there was a guy there who in the course of 12 months went from pretty fat to a little phil heath. he no shit was a solid 245 in about a year who was blasting full and round AF everywhere. the shittiest part about it was this guy literally trained however he wanted. whatever he felt like doing that day he would do. i saw him do nothing but hang snatches for an hour. i saw him do deadlifts and curls supersetted. he went from pulling 135 to 650 in about 6 months. that being said, those are obviously the outliers. i think too many people let their "bad genetics" hold them back. you might be surprised if you grind

Well said. I'm less concerned with whether I have good or bad genetics, just what I am capable of achieving with what I was given.

Hmm, this seems interesting, always wandered what do people mean by "Good Genetics "

Can you do the same but for women please? ☺️ it’s so interesting, and as a newbie in strength training, knowing my body’s limits would be great knowledge. Obviously still stay consistent and safe. ❤

Someone did a video on skin colour and birth location in relation to how developed muscles look. Seems people born closer to the equator with dark skin have an aspect of more rotund muscles as they radiate and dissipate heat easier. People from colder climates or some Asian countries have a blockier, more compact look to the muscles to retain more body heat.

I am 21 years old natty bodybuilder, my goal is to compete at the classic division, i love it and i think i have the genetics for it , but i still dont know how am gonna respond to gear 😂, is there a way to know who is a good responder or you will never know until you try it

Thank you for doing this. It drives me nuts when I hear people misuse words regarding genetics. I am surprised how many pro bodybuilders think there is such thing as a “high Lat insertions”. The Lat inserts in the same spot in all human beings…

Ronnie at 198 that is crazy i forgot he was that light looking insane...i guess there's possiblity of him being natural at that point

What could Joe possibly teach me about genetics that I don't already know I said....🤯

Muscular Development Magazine supposedly did a genetic study (I read it) of all the cooperating athletes 15 years ago, and recent retirees, and Coleman won outright, regarding his muscle growth genetics.

Great video, but don't think I heard delts once.

Ah... Technology 😂 loved the video

Talking about bone strcutures and all. I personally think that ur frame/ structure is more important than full on amount of Mass. If i compare steve reeves to for example arnold no doubt arnold is bigger in size however steve reeves wide clavicle and narrow waist maks him 10x more aesthetic compared to arnold. at least in the eyes of the general population. Not to discredit the hard work for steve reeves however i think he was carried by his genetically gifted bone structure. I think his torso is what made him aesthetic, everything flows and his pectus for some reason even benefitted him. I see the reason why people want to aim for that physique, however if you are cursed like me with small ribs cage and narrower clavicle u kinda cant get that type of aesthetic. Thou in my case my waist/ hip is small its like 27-29 however my clavicle and ribs are more narrow than said hips.

This guy’s laugh is too funny

What do you think about people that can’t put on muscle as fast as another guy. Do you think they can eventually get to the same top weight as a guy that builds muscle faster? So maybe One guy gets to 240 in a decade but can’t get any higher but, the other guy it takes two decades. So they both have the same amount of muscle they can hold, but it takes the other person longer. Is that a thing?

Confirmed: I'm not gonna be mr Olympia. I had hints already but y'know, needed to be sure here😂

Coach, I RESPECT, the hard work.BUT!!!, They all had (A little substance help). But again MUCH RESPECT for,the hard work.👑💪💪💪
