31. This Is What The Perfect Male Body Looks Like Around The World: Russia

Image source/ huffpostIn Russia, the ideal male body style begins with flowing blonde locks, apparently - and mid to long length hair at that. There's also a focus on having big muscles, and especially big biceps, in a more stocky fashion with wider shoulders. It looks like a tan is also a plus!

32. Australia

Image source/ huffpostYou might be surprised at this one if you associate Australian males with that cliché blonde surfer boy look, while apparently it's shorter brown hair that's the in-thing. For Australia, it's apparently not that toned beach look either that you might expect from female body types - it looks like what you might call a Dad Bod.

33. Egypt

Image source/ huffpostWhile Egypt makes up for the lack of muscles in Australia! Here we have a very chiselled ab look, with stocky, muscled legs and wide shoulders. The focus on the muscles seems to be more on the chest and abs rather than the arms, though - and dark facial hair is a plus, too.

34. United States

Image source/ huffpostIt's no surprise that in the United States there's a huge focus on that muscled gym bod when these sunkissed fellas are so concerned with working out. There's a big focus on muscles for both the arms and the chest, as well as the abs of course. Styled hair and some facial hair completes the look.

35. Colombia

Image source/ huffpostFor Colombia, it doesn't seem to be a big deal for men to have muscles, but they still have a strong silhouette! Their physique still looks toned but it's more on the stocky side, with hefty legs and thinner arms! Facial hair for men is in fashion in this country, too.

36. Croatia

Image source/ huffpostFor Croatia, it seems they have a very similar preferred body type for men to Colombia, in terms of lack of toned abs and lack of muscles. But looking at Croatia, there's a very subtle difference in weight, with Croatia looking a tiny bit on the thinner side, and with less fat on the arms!

37. China

Image source/ huffpostIn China, you'd expect a lot less baby fat around the face for men, with a slimmer look on the face and neck in particular. Height seems to be more important here, with long trimmed legs and a slimmer frame. There doesn't seem to be any focus on toned abs or torso muscles, though.

38. Bangladesh

Image source/ huffpostFor Bangladesh, we're definitely back to more meat on the face, framed with dark facial hair and shorter hairstyle! Back to a dad-bod sort of look, in Bangladesh it's more a little extra weight on the chest and stomach, but still looks in shape with a more rectangle-like outline!

39. Pakistan

Image source/ huffpostIt seems that this dark-short-hair-with-dark-stubble look is a universally popular thing when it comes to men's ideal look! In Pakistan, there's a very obvious focus on more meaty arms, larger hands and wide shoulders, while the rest seems like toned (but not muscly) abs and strong thighs.

40. Indonesia

Image source/ huffpostFor Indonesia, it seems we have a small hint at an hourglass shape where the body is brought in a tad at the waist! Around this, it's a generous stomach with a tiny overhang, and slimmer arms all the way to the shoulders. There doesn't seem to be any focus on muscles at all!

41. Nigeria

Image source/ huffpostNigeria is loving that strong arm and strong leg look for their men. Their arms obviously show the effects on the sun being out all day. For the torso, it's once again that average dad-bod with a little bit of a paunch, and extra meat around the chest area! Nothing wrong with that.

42. Philippines

Image source/ huffpostThe Philippines definitely has a focus on a very toned and small abdomen, but surprisingly that slim look doesn't apply to every area of the body! Well the stomach is very flat and pulled-in with visible washboard, you then see a wider shoulder width with bigger arms at the top.

43. Macedonia

Image source/ huffpostFor Macedonia, you see a very toned and well-kept stomach area without the need for the abdominal muscles to show. The trim stomach is then complemented by a smaller chest and shoulder width, and slim arms. The legs, while looking slimmer towards the bottom, do seem to have nicely toned thighs!

44. Portugal

Image source/ huffpostFor Portugal, you have a strong looking torso without the need for any defined muscles. You can see some extra definition around the 'moob' area with wide shoulder width and hefty arms! But the waist is toned and straight without any overhang. Stocky seems to be the rage!

45. Serbia

Image source/ huffpostSerbia's interesting because included in the ideal body type is actually body art, too! This is the only one we've seen with a tattoo included, shown on the arm. This body type shows a very stocky looking man with extra weight around the stomach paunch, arms and chest area. Definitely no washboard here!

46. South Africa

Image source/ huffpostWhat Serbia doesn't have, South Africa definitely makes up for in terms of defined muscles! For this country, you definitely don't skip leg day. The muscles on the thighs are clearly defined, while the stomach reveals a very obvious washboard with toned pecs, too. The neck is muscular and slim, too, with facial hair defining the jawline.

47. Spain

Image source/ huffpostFor Spain, you have a very wide shoulder span with a heavy-set look. There's no muscle definition on the pecs or the abdomen, with more weight around the chest and on the arms. While the stomach isn't muscular, it's still brought-in without a lot of overhang!

48. United Kingdom

Image source/ huffpostFor chaps in the United Kingdom, you're more likely to see slim or skinny. There isn't a huge deal about muscles in this country, but you do get the gym bros who want washboard abs and huge arms. This look sees more of a slim stomach and thinner arms and legs.

49. Venezuela

Image source/ huffpostFor Venezuela, you have very stocky with very defined muscles. The legs are on the bigger side, with strong and defined thighs, while the abdomen shows a hint of toned muscle structure without overdoing it! There's focus on toning-up the abs, too, while the arms and the neck are on the less-toned side.

50. Mexico

Image source/ el siglo de durangoMexican males put a lot of focus on the more 'macho' side of being a man, which is reflected in their ideal body type. As you'd expect when macho is the desired look, there's a huge importance on defined muscles, particularly around the abs, and a strong, muscly male figure - who's easy on the eyes, too!
