@DecapitatedSoul I am (or was) a pro photographer. I know what GIF means. I even know how to pronounce it!. I was unclear on how this works on this format when I was told before that videos could not be uploaded to this site. I seriously doubt you will be able to find another post on this site that does something similar...so I wanted to know how it could be done.
He's just flexing. He can do that because in strength training, muscles can literally tear in half, resulting in muscle splitting. That's why bodybuilders seem to have muscles others don't. They actually have the same number, but some have split, like his pecs have each split twice, so where I have one solid pec, his pec is split in three. I, and anyone, can localize flexing part of the pec, but since mine's all one piece, I don't get that effect. Since his has, when he flexes, you can see the splits and he can localize flexing one part without the other to create that rippling effect.
