Title: Art Atwood
Post by: buffbodz on January 05, 2006, 07:12:00 AM
I see he's doing the Ironman.  Anyone have any pics of what he looks like now?  Lots of mass, but can he put together the package he did in Toronto in 02?

I know his name was on the competitor's list but a friend of mine talked to him and he said he would not be in the show.

I like Art a lot. He doesn't have the most asthetic physique out there but he is certainly massive and comes in condition. He's also a really nice guy and takes the time to talk to you if you approach him at a show. He's crazy though when preparing for a contest training twice a day along with cardio. I also heard in the off-season he eats as many as 1,200 grams of carbs everyday! No wonder he gets up to like 325

this guy is rediculously huge, he is thicker and more muscular than ronnie or ruhl.
he probably has one of if not the largest chest measurement of all time.

I believe he also has a bigger rear lat spread than Ronnie or Markus. Both of whom have fairly high lats in comparison to Atwood.

Those lats are crazy, I've never seen anything like those before.

Widest waist in bb. Massive pecs though, and possibly the best set of calves on any pro.

Post by: TheBigAristotle on January 10, 2006, 04:50:57 AM
Another crazy thing is that Art trains twice a day 7 days a week in contest prep in addition to cardio.

(Pssst, I'll try and say this quietly so Shadow, hopefully, won't hear me and beat the crap out of me  :-[ ):

Atwood has some amazing body parts, the back, calves, chest etc, but the problem is the way they are thrown together........and they are really badly thrown together. I think he would look better at a lower bodyweight, like he used to.

Shadow, what some people are trying to have here is a civil discussion, and it seemed to be going well until you opened up your stupid mouth and let loose with some verbal diahreea. You have the mind of a child and express it through the keyboard, sad really. So sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up, it is grown up time in here child.
   Anyways, Atwood is gigantic. And his back is  wide and thick along with his chest. The problem is, as Gord said, that his body has almost no flow and comes to drawf his massive arms. He used to look a lot better at a lower body weight, but, his frame dictates that he needs more mass.....so this is the end result.

there was an ad once for ABB obviously, and the pic of Art Atwood ( i didnt' know who he was then) really blew me away. the guy looked so powerful.

Post by: buffbodz on January 19, 2006, 12:59:08 PM
Last night I was watching the 03 Olympia and Art was in his only O.  Like Gord said, he's massive, but it seems like a bunch of rather large body parts thrown together.  I notice that his abbs have kinda of a sag to them.  He's one mass monster, but will never place higher than maby 10 and that's if and when he qualifies for the big show again.  Even to qualify, he must get shredded like he was in 02-03.  He's supposedly a good guy and has a good business going for him, so maby he just may say "Fvck this" and stay the businessman he's been successful at the last few years.  Either way when you start a post about Atwood, you get responses.  Business wise, that's a good thing.

He needs better arms a thicker back maybe bigger calves then the only criticism you could ever throw at him (apart from his midsection which is an obvious flaw) would be that he's just too damb big.

I'd be interested in knowing how many criticizing "posters" would trade "flaws" and "weak points" with guys like Art.  Or at least offer their pics up for the same levels of scrutiny.

Hmmmmm.....

The guy is HUGE, unbelievable and the only one that can match Ronnie in size. Maybe not pretty built but huge nonetheless

Ruhl beat Coleman in the most muscular in 04. they just didn't give it to him. Who can match Ruhl's chest?

Mark my word, Atwood is the next candidate to get Palumboism.  First the arms will start getting smaller, the waist will get thicker.... you know the rest.
