lol "7ft mountain men." He's bigger than he was in Immortals but he doesn't look quite as big as he did on The Man of Steel set to me. I mean he was almost in impossible shape for Man of Steel. I still think even in Steel Cavill looks movie normalish in clothes, I mean he isn't the size of Arnold in his prime or The Rock or anything.
hah thats funny. i dont remember any veins or muscle striations on his body. he was in fantastic hollywood shape. but he had a lot of bodyfat on his body. he was not even under 10%.
I'm not offended at all in any way to be honest I was just asking a serious question, sorry if it was taken out of context.
His results were great for MOS because he gave it proper time. He transformed over 6-8 months starting with foundation, then on to bulling, cutting and sculpting.Henry is not above 200 right now. He wouldn't start bulking while he's still filming another film. All his outfirts have already been tailored to his built he wouldn't want to mess that up.
These are recent picks he looks much smaller than he did in MoS:
His arms alone have no where near the mass they did in MoS. He's gonna start his bulk as soon as he's done film this film.
Cavill in non-work out mode has a decent every-man built he can pull off. That wouldn't particularity stick out in a role where he's not playing a heavily muscled character.
One thing to realize is that, when you are seeing bodybuilders on stage with 3 percent body fat, everything is geared towards showing off that low body fat. They are completely shaved, oiled up, bronzed, with appropriate stage lighting, water depleted, carb depleted, and flexing to the max. And many other tricks body builders do.
Cavill was doing none of these things, he was extremely pale, very hairy, in very flat drab lighting (actually horrible lighting) and not flexing at all. It is entirely different circumstances. He was just playing a normal man stealing some clothes and running away. I daresay you would see much more of his muscle definition if he did a body building photo shoot with all the bells and whistles.
But this much is certain he had low body fat. Look at the pictures below.
Abs are bulging but look at the arms. Look at the separation between the biceps and the delts, and the pecs and the delts, he is very sharply cut. This kind of sharp appearance comes with low body fat. So even though he might not be 3%, he's definitely single digit.
And both Twight, Snyder and Cavill claimed that figure so it wouldn't be very far off the mark. Cavill very widely claimed that he was at 6% body fat in Immortals. And he looks much much sharply defined in MOS. So he might be around that number.
But remember, the physiques of body builders and actors are presented in extremely different circumstances. It is actually a very disadvantageous way for the actors to present their results, because they just do an incidental scene in films.
Oh so that's what the theme music sounds like.
