More somali guys need to hit the gym

[Sigmundd]

I often see a lot of skinny somali boys like im.talking very skinny and it just doesn't look healthy. I have seen few Somali men that has build muscle tones on tiktok and they look so different and much more healthy and better to their previous body weight.

I don’t know how you can look at 100 Somali’s and say our body is suited to be muscular. Lean yes, but not muscular. That’s just a fact of life. We don’t have the Eastern European frame etc. skinny is definitely not ideal, but every one can be lean and athletic which is fine. But muscular and big is very hard. There’s a ceiling for every different race,it is what it is. It’s no excuse to be lazy fat or weak, saying all that.

@Diophantus no somali giy would disagree with my take you aren't Somali, BEAT IT.

Somali men suite to be muscly tho. I have seen plenty that went to the gym and returned looking healthier and a better version of themselves. .

It's normal that's how genetics work I seen many Somali guys in gym tho

 

[reggie]

Even just being an healthy weight for your height and being toned that’s what I’m striving for

then be lean, lean looks the best anyway but the whole our bodies arent suited for muscle is pseduo science peoples genes dont vary so much.

Its genetics you cant change it. We have less dense bones due to our evolution we're naturally skinny. No amount of gym gona change ur skeleton structure

 

[Keep it a boqol]

a lot of people especially gaalo have been abusing steroids and PEDs for years. Or they hop on a couple cycles. I’m pretty sure it’s very prominent in the Uk. Not even the hardcore gym goers which is the stereotype a lot of caadi ppl.

I live in canada and even a lot of indian dudes between the ages of 20-35 take PEDS to get that crazy physique you see online.

What would you consider the ideal Somali male physique

 

[LacagChaser]

175lbs minimum if you’re 6ft. One year in the gym going U/L and you’re set.

That’s what I’m talking about. Lean, athletic. Like professional tennis players. Not big and bulky msucular like NFL players

I am lean bro. 186cm, 81KG. 10 years in the making but I know what I work with. I can move with mobility and with hoody/jumper on you will not think I am in good shape and think im slim. A lot of my friends are the same.

Guys look at 15 year old Somali boys who plays basketball everyday and say “Somali MEN need to hit the gym”. Most Somali men(18+) you see in 2025 hit the gym. At my medium sized gym you will catch at least 10-15 Somali guys in the afternoon. I don’t live in Minneapolis or Columbus either.

I agree. Honestly the really skinny abdis I know grew up neglected. They were in a home with like 5+ other siblings and didn't get the chance to eat big portions of food for most of their childhood.

I was skinny and fat growing up. I was eating 3 solid meals a day for all of my teen years. I was never thin during my teens. Once I started working at the age of 18 one of the first things I purchased was a gym membership. I was lean and ripped after my first year in the gym.
My parents didn't hassle me for lacag once I started working so all I did was spend my money on was food, gym, games, and clothes.
