Look…if we were all satified with where we are, this wouldn’t be much of a site, now would it? (LOL!)
Anyway…I thought that the “Who would you like to look most like; Jay Cutler vs. Brad Pitt” thread in the “Polling” section was pretty cool…but there weren’t many replies. So I’d thought start a Part II here.
First things first. FIRST AND FOREMOST, I WANT TO LOOK THE BEST THAT I CAN FOR MY GENETICS AND BODYTYPE! (Had to get that out of the way for the hack that was going to criticise the thread)!
So…men and ladies alike…what’s your goal? What real (not neccesarily famous) physique represents your ideal?(By the way, I’m in the “In between Jay and Brad” group).
Post a pic if you can! (I’m not sure who this Bodybuilder is…but he is sort of an “ideal” to me…):
My goal is to look more along the lines of Eddie Abbew. I don’t desire to be much bigger than that. Ther are others that I might look up to but I feel I have the genetics to get closest to his overall size and shape.
We have a LOT of Powerlifters, Ultimate Fighters, Stongmen, Bicyclist, Football Players, Basketball players etc. on the site with goals beyond the esthetic…
As far as looks go I think that LL Cool J has a great looking body. I guess you could call that a goal. However, I participate in a lot of athletic activities, so my training is really more about that. So I’m not sure you could really call me a bodybuilder in that I consider aesthetic appeal to be a nice byproduct but not the goal.
If I had a pick a celled to look like though, he’d be the one. (Hmm… I kind of look like him anyway…)
I just wanted to add I don’t think the Jay vs. Brad thread got much action because your comparing basicly an underwear model (Read tall skinny guy with decent abs) vs. a walking lump of muscle (read: Drugged beyond belief and insane genetics to BOOT!)
My goal is form + function, trying to get into power lifting in a light weight class so being lean will be a good thing and I should keep adding functional mass. I don’t want to look like the preppy bitch who just does bench/bi’s, also if over the years my upper back ingulfs my kneck I wouldnt be unhappy.
I’d say Franco for me, not that I could ever get to the kind of strength he has/had but at 5’5" and 185lbs winning the olympia and looking damn good I think that at or just above that weight ripped would be ideal for me at 2" taller.
Hahahaha, the first thing I thought was that you put a picture of yourself.
(lucky asshole, hehe)
Anyway, this (our very own CT) would be my goal aesthetically… I want to compete in some O-lift events too but that along with fighting seems a bit too scatter brained.
(by the way is it just me or CT seem to have a boner in that pic…or should I not even be looking)
i would agree that CT’sripped look is something that i would like to have in the future. dont worry about looking at his package, the fact that hes looking strait at it makes you look to.
