Not to forget: I believe my threads are beneficial because of the information and the experience transfer, for example for my bodybuilding guide i explain how my split works, how to perform it and apply it to the littlest detail. I've perfected the exercise routine and the movements over the years and put the most efficent ones for muscle growth, as last it is the only bodybuilding guide by the bodybuilding section. The information i share is always fact checked online and it is the same stuff i apply for myself.

It’s a growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) similar to GHRP6 and Ipamorelin. However, it provides stronger GH response than these two and has less side effects. It’s also a ghrelin (the hormone that stimulates GH secretion and appetite) receptor agonist.

Why Fashionmax?​

Fashionmaxxing is one of the most underrated and ignored methods for your SMV. It adds so much appeal and I’ve seen so many fashionmaxxed LTNs get girlfriends that they never would’ve talked to if they wore the random outfit their mom bought them. Fashionmaxxing is statusmaxxing. Even a cheap suit can make an LTN look important. It shows that you have taste and taste shows status.

The Pincushion Effect is an optical aberration where straight lines bow inwards towards the center of the center of the image, making it appear to implode (Google definition). It happens in images taken from a further distance.

Basically, if you take an image from far way (like 8ft+?), your ESR will look quite a bit closer set than usual.

I'm making this thread to bring attention to it, although I don't use it in my harmony analyses. It's more a factor of dimorphism than harmony in my opinion.

The FWHR is measured by dividing the cheekbone width by the middle third + philtrum length.

It should ideally have a value of 1.9-2.06.

One of the most striking feature a face can have. A compact FWHR signals strength and masculinity as bizygomatic width and low set eye brows are both large indicators of dimorphism.
