this guy have a incredible physique without being necessarily a pro bodybuilder, but you are crazy if you think he is not epic huge

Most elite level shot putters are huge men...like NFL lineman big  OVER 6' 4" and 300-350 lbs .
Most pro bodybuilders are NOT big men in terms of frame or stature.
It's the extreme amounts of mass on their frames at low body fat that make' em look so big.

There isn't one Mr. Olympia contestant that could be an NFL lineman.  To slow and not powerful enough.  No endurance would be a factor too.

It's not a shortputter. He is a competetive bodybuilder.

There is no olympic level shortputters that big because they are subjected to drugtesting.

They are big, but soft. Not bodybuilder big. They are about natural limit big with alot of bodyfat. Dieted down to 10% bodyfat they would drop 60 pounds minimum

They simply don't have that "swole", or volumized muscle look that a bodybuilder on high androgen use gets.

Crouser throws the shot put over 76 feet.   

Enough said.

No kidding, but, they are more "strength and power" athletes and NOT trying to be bodybuilders.
These are genetically taller, bigger men or what many used to call " country boy strong".

Obviously bodybuilders LOOK like they have bigger muscles because that's their main thing.

An NFL lineman or elite level thrower has performance objectives.

are you suggesting that the application of tan lotions, extensive shaving,  flexing routines, suggestive clothing, mirror smooching and camera posing are not performance objectives ?

But that's besides the point. This thread starter talks about a specific look he thought would be attainable naturally. When it's not possible.

YES!!!! I remember that assertion too; some clown here claimed he could look like Pavol--and that "it wouldn't be that hard" (if my memory is correct).  To me this is a classic getbig thread!  An axis of muscle idiots making nonsensical claims... then exposed and subject to ridicule they back peddle...  ::)


Look like Pavol? Sure! No problem! It's two years later and we've all been training (and juicing a teeny tiny amount) right?  So now we all look like Pavol.   :-*

Captain Eq saying he could look like Pavol was classic.
