Flexing Upper Body to Appear Wider in Pictures

Your upper body can look vastly different in photos, depending on how you stand and how you flex your muscles. Your chest can look smaller in some pics and wider in other.

Here is a technique to make your upper body look as wide as possible...

Start by standing, spreading your legs to match the width of your shoulders.

Now concentrate on moving each shoulder out as far as possible without moving your shoulders forward or backward. Keep your shoulders in parallel line to your waist. Move your left shoulder straight out, as far left as possible without moving your shoulder forward or backward.

Now do the same for your right shoulder.

Do not curve your chest forward or backward. Keep your shoulders straight. When you push your shoulders forward, your chest appears smaller through the camera. When you arch your shoulders backward, you flatted your pectorals.

You can test the straightness of your shoulders by having a friend hold a broom or other straight rod lengthwise atop your shoulders as you move them outward.

Isolate and Flex Your Lats

Now attempt to flex your lats out without moving your chest or shoulders.

Keep attempting this set of flexes until you have memorized them and can perform them with your eyes closed.

Once you develop enough muscle to turn girls on, you can show off your new physique by getting qualified to become a Campus Man. Just wear a tank top when you film your video. You can also position the camera at a slight angle so your guns (arms) are fully visible in your video. Remember, building muscularity is worthless if nobody gets to sees what you have built!

If you are not a student, but know of a college student who lifts weights at a campus near you, you can nominate him to become a Campus Man. Just go to our front page and click "Nominate a New Student to Become a Campus Man". The guy you nominate will be grateful someone "nominated" him because of his hobby!
