Wide, developed shoulders for sure. Back in the day it was shoulders before chest.

SHOULDER WIDTH

Width without thickness isn't worth much, I have seen skinny guys as wide as a bodybuilder but absolutely skinny.

I say neck and traps, they give you that bodybuilder / athlete look.

chest is the part all champions should have. also back.

width is a factor in the powerful look.

One can always assess an athlete's strength from how he looks from the back, not how he looks from the front.

Thick traps going up to ears, wide shoulders, thick back, thick chest. Thick everything, basically. Or, in other words, Ron Coleman:

I'd agree, but I'd change the order to Neck, Forearms, Shoulders.

I would say traps give you that strong look.

What do you say?
It's an overall look of thickness, whole body.

Just one part? I'd say traps, the average trainer barely does shrugs, usually with 75# DBs, so most anyone that has built traps has put in effort to lift heavy shit.

I think too many have big traps. When the bb flu was going around in our little town nearly all dudes had traps... only thing that grew on them.

the "traps" you guys are talking about is more of a short/thick neck effect. Levrone had huge traps but didnt look like a powerlifter because his head was on a thin stick. Serge Nubret was the same and its way more aesthetic this way imo.

^ this

a lot of guys have good chest, arms etc, in fact you can see a lot of guys with those bodyparts and thats all they have.

you see someone with impressive traps chances are they have a pretty complete physique, and he looks fucking powerful.

i agree with what fortress said too- want to see how powerful someone is look at them from behind, not from the front.

nothing looks more impressive on someone than thick traps, cause chances are they have the back to match.

Traps?   ;D  If you have big traps/neck and stick calves, you are going to look like an idiot.

Lats is the answer.  Whoever said it was right about looking powerful from the back.

hey thanx bro!!  neck, forearms and calves are about the most seen of the bodyparts. so they are a good starting place.

Mike Mentzer had an article in the early 80s titled   Shoulders make the man.

Dick comes first then being lean about 7% , veins in hand and forearms no matter how it's big , width shoulder , at least 5"8 tall.
Strong jaw is very important too

Arms are the first things most people notice..


nice round tall traps help, but so does a big neck and wide shoulders... possibly even....



A NARROW waist!!!!!


If you wear shirts (like most people do) it helps if your chest sticks out farther than your belly.
