If I train my masseters, will they look like my current ones but flexed?

[ai.upscale]

So I am not sure if my masseters are low set, when I clench and touch it with my finger the lower part does bulge out the most but the high part bulges out maybe 60% of what the lower part bulges out.

Currently when I clench my jaw my face does look better, in all my best pictures I have my jaw clenched so I am wondering if I train my masseters, will they look like rn as if i clench them but relaxed or will it give me a saggy bloated look? Another thing, when I train my jaw and chew on incisors and get the jaw "pump" my face typically looks bloated, is that how it's gonna look like if I continue training?

I've been training my masseters for around the last 6 months and i look SO MUCH better because of them.
They have given me some much needed lower third width. My front and side have ascended a lot as well.
I get the bloated look right after chewing gum, but it doesn't look bloated afterwards.
Don't chew to often, take enough breaks. You don't want tmj.

They will be bigger in real life after some hypertrophy, obviously yes.

Alright, what I meant is, in terms of the shape, will they look in relaxed position the same way they would look right now in a clenched position?

Also I chew on central insicors hoping that would minimize the hypertrophy of the deep masseter that gives the bloated look.

Is my masseter placement good? Should I continue training? Clenched vs. unclenched

Bump, guys tell me if i should continue training pls

 

[TheOsei]

why not

 

[ai.upscale]

why not

Based off masseter genetics it can be bad or good

whats your "schedule" for chewing gum and what type of gum?

1hr per day until failure, 5x a week. 3 sticks of falim gum

I have the same

i assume you put on peice left, middle and right? and howe long did it take before you saw noticeable gains

You need to lose weight man. It's hard to tell now.

I do it like twice or thrice a week and they are 2 hour sessions. Cheap orbit sugar free gum.

No I only chew on front incisors, any chewing on the sides activates too much deep masseter muscles, that's not what you want to train

so chewing on premolars should do the trick

Yea I am currently cutting and planning to stay there, so I should stop training before I get leaner to be sure it's good to train my masseters?

do it occasionally. get leaner quick and take a better decisionthen

Premolars is okay too, to not put too much pressure on the incisors

 

[remusss]

Chewing on anterior teeth showed smaller masseteric activity in posterior part

Effect of the location of chewing on facial and jaw muscles activity and the mandibular movement - PubMed

This paper evaluates the influence of the location of chewing on facial and jaw muscles' activity and mandibular movements. Ten subjects with complete dentition performed following chewing sequences; 1) right side chewing (unilateral location-unspecified chewing); 2) chewing on right molars; 3)...

i dont understand why we should chew on front incisor, the posterior part of the masseter is the one close to the gonial angle, that u want to train

Alright I'll do that. If I stop training them completely, will they shrink to the original size over time?

Obviously yes. Same as with every other muscle. Will take a lot of time though. Speaking about 3+ months

as long as your masseters reach the bottom of ur gonion, you should train masseters, but be careful to not chew every second and get tmjd. I did it too much now my mandible has popped out of its place lightly

Thats basic mucle hypertrophy, but im pretty sure just chewing food should maintain it
