Obviously very upturned clavicles are a subhuman trait, but I’ve heard that slightly curved clavicles result in better deltoid projection: @User28823?

Assuming both the straight and slightly curved are of a similar length, which is better?

Two examples here: straight

Slightly curved:

But deltoid projection is weaker with straight clavicles. Trap insertions are generally better though
Idk. It’s hard to tell which one is more aesthetic since they both have their strengths

I only mean slightly curved. Too curved like Gandy’s is very bad as it results in a weaker bidelt.

That's just his posture, He has straight clavicles

They aren’t, here’s him standing naturally and it’s slightly curved. Obviously not by a lot, but still.

idk if my hypothesis was 100% accurate but it does seem like most of the time straight clavicles = poor delt projection and shorter delt insertions

but some people are outliers like jon skywalker, david laid, etc who have straight clavicles with projected and long delts
those are ideal cases

Maybe as they’re both of roids, their delts explode and result in that look. For natties it might hold true, no ?
 
actually skywalker has short delts relative to his arm cuz of his super straight clavicles

nah, i saw it in my own physiques asymmetries that it depends on the structure of the clavicle

i'm sure i could look at anatomy and muscle diagrams and figure out the different variations but im too lazy tbh

This BBC has bad clavicles yet well projected delts. Is it due to superior muscle bellies ?

his curve up and back which causes the delts to develop fuller
I thought that’s not good, his looks too curved no ? Like Gandy’s?

Doesn’t really matter as long as you have wide shoulders/ frame

I think it's like canthal tilt in that negative looks like shit, but if it's at least neutral, you're fine.

Both are good tbh. Slight up turned looks dope if u have a smaller waist. Straight looks good regardless of any other shape.
