Hello everyone, this is my first post after being gone from this forum for a year+
first of all:
This guide is not about how mind muscle connection improves hypertrophy, it's about how your teeth make contact with the food and which part of the muscle it engages

I'm sure almost all of you have heard of this cope - "It's all about masseter insertions bro"
There's no such thing as shitty masseter insertion as it always attaches on the same bone in almost all individuals. only variation in so called "masseter insertion" is the bone itself. unless you are severely deformed, I don't think you have to worry about this

Let's all look at this case here:
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A, B , C IS MASSETER MUSCLE. EVERYTHING ELSE IS SAME EXCEPT MASSETER MUSCLE.
SO WHY DO THEY LOOK SO DIFFERENT?
It's simple, it has to do with the way their masseter muscles are engaged on the daily basis.
A has most aesthetic one but his masseter size is too big to the point of being unaesthetic, you don't want that big of a masseter, it looks too bulky and unaesthetic.
B has most unaesthetic one due to the points we will talk about below...
C just doesn't train masseter muscle
the reason you get "bloated look" is because deep part of masseter (highlighted in green) gets hypertrophied which is located under cheekbone
When the deep fibers of the masseter hypertrophy excessively, they create a round, bloated contour under the zygomatic region

Masseter is one muscle, which has deep and superficial fibers.
you absolutely can work different muscle fibers of the same muscle.
For example, deltoid muscle has three fibers:
Anterior fibers - flex and medially rotate arm
Lateral fibers - abduct arm
Posterior fibers - extend and externally rotate arm
this is how you activate part of the masseter closest to the mandible dominantly:
When chewing touch the masseter muscle, you'll see the bulge in the upper part, in the middle as well as lower part of the Masseter. You need to focus on molars and try to chew in a way that part of the masseter muscle closest to your mandible pops out significantly more than higher up.
It's hard at first as it requires mind muscle connection.
This needs to become a habit and way you eat any kind of food.
IM NOT A MEDICAL PROFESIONAL, THIS IS JUST A THEORY OF MINE AFTER SIGNIFICANT RESEARCH
