Throwing in my five cents, because this is really pissing me off, I swear the artist hasn't a clue what exercise does to a body. Jessie's body in the first page of this thread looks like a moderately fit person. In the most recent comics where he's in a gym the muscle definition of his torso and arms is suddenly replaced with sticks. I assure you, to have a body like his shown in the shower scene, you would be lifting more than the pink weights. Not to mention the squats for legs that size. It often requires a lot of exercise or manual labor, but a leaner diet.
It really seems like Jessie's body has been retconned for this scene so he, somehow, has never done any work a day in his life. Which, while possible for some, wouldn't give you a body he's drawn with. He'd have no muscle definition at all, what they call "skinny fat", and his legs wouldn't be that defined, let alone his ass that big. If anything it'd be rather flat and unpleasing.
My point with all of this is, I fear the author/artist hasn't a clue about exercise, or the bodies he draws. There's no reason to emasculate Jessie like this, contrary to how he looks, when the weights a moderately fit person could lift are far below those of captain beefcake anyway. It's just stupid. And in before "Well how do you know", because I've dated men who look like Jessie and we don't sit around all day drinking 100 calorie soy shakes to look that lean and toned. It requires work.
