Feel free to post things in the Daily Discussion Thread that don't warrant a subreddit-level discussion. Although most of our posting rules will be relaxed here, you should still consider your audience when posting. Most importantly, show respect to your fellow redditors. General redditiquette always applies.

The r/bodybuilding subreddit gets around 1000 new subscribers every day, so here's a quick intro to this sub:

This is a community specifically for competitive bodybuilding. It is NOT for general health and fitness, fat loss advice, how to bulk up, how to get started at the gym, or how to get into shape in general. If that's what you're looking for, go to these subreddits and read their quick start guides:

r/Fitness Getting Started Guide: Launch link

r/loseit Quick Start Guide: Launch link

r/gainit Quick Start Guide: Launch link

This subreddit is also NOT for general progress pictures, memes, or questions about whether you should bulk or cut. Those belong in r/progresspics, r/Brogress, r/GymMemes, r/swoleacceptance, and r/BulkOrCut.

If you think you're in the right subreddit, remember to respect your fellow redditors and read the rules before you post: View now

We don't allow self-promotional posts. Don't post about athletes outside of the bodybuilding realm. Check the rules to see if your post would belong in one of our bot-automated threads rather than as a separate post. Do not ask for advice on how to rehab an injury or how to deal with any medical condition. Don't post about supplements. If you haven't been training as a bodybuilder for at least a few years, your questions probably belong in the weekly Newbie Tuesdays thread.

Any question or comment that isn't allowed as its own post can go in the most recent Daily Discussion thread. This thread is stickied and the bot posts it every 23 hours.

As always, general reddiquette and Reddit rules apply. Do you see someone breaking r/bodybuilding rules or Reddit's rules? Report them by hitting the report button.

Why do some bodybuilders have a high vacuum whereas others have a low vacuum?

Posted: 22 Jun 2020 02:34 AM PDT

Hello all, I've been recently thinking about why some bodybuilders have a high vacuum whereas others have a lower vacuum. For instance, in these two pictures, you can see that his top rib cage line produced by the vacuum nearly meets the lower pecs because of how high his vacuum is >

However, the man in the following picture has a very low top rib cage line that is far from the lower pecs >

Can someone explain why that is, and if a high vacuum is something they "worked for" and did exercises to achieve, or if it only came naturally? Will rib cage expansion exercises produce this look???? Thanks a lot, much appreciated.

It's Monday and time to post your best progress pics, poses, body parts, muscle groups, or whatever. As long as it's worth mirin'. Post a pic and some stats and let the mirin' begin.
