Midoriya trained for 10 months to build his body and after his training he was
jacked [Lean muscular build] right, so why does he look off model/half of his
size/skinny from entrance exam till the end of sports festival? All other
characters are designed well except him In the USJ arc, all the characters
look great but Midoriya looks so skinny. In the Hero Killer arc, he again has
the same physique as the one in the Beach scene like literally the same.

Is this just due the Art style changes by the author/artist in both Anime and
Manga or are there any reasons for him to be skinny after that beach scene?

Deku's Physique


Well my guess for why he would look skinny is all because of character and
development of that character, What I mean is, Deku or Izuku mydoria was
"born" quirkless and in the MHA universe that means your theoretically very
weak or frail compared to others with quirks. So in this case the reason he
may look small or weak even though he is very built muscle-wise is probably
all because of character plot or development.

Hope that answers your question!

(The credibility of this answer is based on watching the anime many times and
being very familiar with the way the plot and development work)

I would like to point out that it's implied that Midoria is not well endowed,
athletically speaking.

All Might was able to use One For All at 100% immediately after receiving it,
though it was much weaker back then, and Bakugo was able to use One For All at
100% when he got it temporarily against Nine.

I think there are a couple other points that support this idea as well. For
example, a combat quirk isn't required to be a formidable fighter, take Sir
Nighteye for example. But Midoria never seemed to even consider training that
way, even though he must have known it was possible, so he instead focused on
the intellectual aspect of hero work, because he knew that he didn't have the
physical capacity for combat.

Now, this is an anime, so despite his physical limitations, he's able to
continue to train and get stronger regardless, but I'd argue that there's
plenty of evidence that he has some sort of physiological disorder that's
inhibiting his muscle growth.

I think I could be that, or it could be the fact that his body was not meant
for his power and he also took a lot damage from it and it put a lot of
physical strain on his body so he was constantly having to visit recovery
girl. And he was born without a power so his body would go through physical
changes to be able to handle One for all
