If that's how a competitor looks like, tell me, how much a martial artist or a soldier(no matter the era) should have?. Illustrate.

a soldier will have a good all-around fitness:
Lower body, for travel stamina and load carrying. A marching soldier is going to get a workout just by carrying even minimal gear
Core, because you need to be able to control your gear when carrying it, nevermind actual combat. 60lb of body armor, ammunition, bedroll, rations, weapon adds up to a lot of inertia, and you need to be able to move effectively in it
Upper body, because you're going to be hauling ropes, moving supplies, and doing a lot more general mid-weight labor than actual combat.
These all make for a well-rounded soldier physique. not fat, not skinny. Stamina and stamina-recovery will be balanced with raw power, so not whipcord-wiry nor musclebound.

I think it also depends on during what time and at what age you'd become a soldier and your function.
during WW2 a big portion of the European soldiers were very pretty young and there wasn't necessarily the time or the amount of nutrion to fully develop the body fitting the job. So this kind of cannon fodder basically would of course look more like the 15- to 18-year-olds with the respective muscle and than modern soldiers who grew up being well-fed and fully adult.

Oh wow this is amazing!
//Has just scrolled down to see the date this was posted./ 
I was looking at a poses reference sheet for women (Cause I suck at drawing female figures) that was on the front page when I logged in and this was linked in the comments because a lot of the figures in said reference sheet were very "samey".
My characters are all males and anthro but still have human bodies and I'm fascinated by and absolutely love anatomy.
I really do try my hardest to make their bodies all look different, but I'm lazy and always end up reverting back to the typical "gym rat" 6 pack because it looks desirable.
But this will really help me out! I have one guy who is very much the typical "Tank" and although he does go to the gym, his lifestyle would mean he would build up a lot more useful muscle rather than for show, so this will really help when it comes to releasing his 2017 ref sheet, which I have been currently working on. Time to go change his figure a bit!
Seriously thank you so much for this, I just wish I had seen it sooner!

OH CRAP IT'S YOU. Β I follow your Manly comic. Saw this in someone's faves, hopped in and read before noticing your name. Pleasant surprise for me!

OK
I found this on google images like, ages ago and i had a hard-time findin its source... But here you are! At least!
This tutoral is magnificient, it helped me a lot, to be honest
But! That's the real question i was driving nuts trying to find you: you have like, a female equivalence of this? I have a female character that is pretty muscular, not like a bodybuilder but she can kick your ass pretty hard. I'm searching like a bitch for a good tutorial on female muscles, bc when i try this kind of tutorial (made for male phisiques) she kinda looks too manly, and that's definitely not my intention...
Thanks for hearing me anyway
P.S.: I used this in male characters and holly macarroni this helps, like, a lot. They looked more realistic and plausible and it made it easier. I loved it.

This helped me get a better understanding of what strong and fit means and gave me a better appreciation of my own body.

Amazing artwork my friend. Also, just incase you didn't know I've seen this drawing(mainly the form vs function one) on some other sites such as 9gag and the comments were saying the one who drew its were jealous of bodybuilder physique. Personally I like the strongman physique more it just looks bigger and more tough. Β Β

Thank you for posting this. I have been trying to do pictures of people who have work type muscles, y'know like the strongmen type. But I never could think of the right term for it and now I do! I'm doing like a merge of two different people, gemsonas like in Steven Universe, one is a slim build and the other is the Mr Universe type build and when they merge they become the Strongmen body type.
None of the muscly men pics i looked at were what i was looking for but that was because i didn't know it was the Strongman type that i needed to search for! So again, thank you so much for posting this!

I've heard the term "Lumberjack build" thrown around a bit as well.

Think dwarves, but tall. Check out Izumi's husband on Fullmetal Alchemist too.
('classic' dockworkers before they had all them machines are also usually a good example due to what muscles pushing around containers and palettes works out.)
Also, amusing that she remembered to mention Schwarzenegger, but not Jesse Ventura. They had that one famous movie together! And uh...that other one! Bout the game show!

I can not express how thankfull I am for this fine piece of information and advice, you saved my male characters to end up with serious anatomy problems XD
Thank you so much for doing this!!

Excellent rundown! Β I also love how you give a bunch of real-life examples to study.
I didn't know that bodybuilders dehydrate themselves before competition to look more defined. Β The things we do for shows, huh?

Oh god you have no idea how helpful this is. There's been a character I've been reinventing like crazy and I've been strugglnig major to draw someone who LOOKS fit and strong. I mainly do the more wiry runner-type fit male characters, but it's like... one or two are more like bear wrestler type strong, and just...
Thank you so much, now I can finally draw or get started learning how to draw this guy
