    He's well built, but he's not even close to being as big or strong as an IFBB
    pro bodybuilder. He has a natural 'V shape' (somewhat broad shoulders, thin
    waist), and low bodyfat, which makes him look quite muscular. But not impossibly
    so. Most runners and cyclists have similarly low bodyfat, indeed most top
    sprinters are probably stronger have better physiques.

    Also, it's possible that he doesn't maintain that sort of condition year round:
    he could diet himself down about 10lb when he's making one of his training
    videos, then "fatten up" again.

    Cheers,

    Why would you think "platic surgery"?

    ha ha ha ha. I cannot tell but every time I see that guy's low budget tv
    commercial I laugh. The best part is that he is introduced as
    "fitness celebrity" john basedow.
    ha ha ha ha "fitness celebrity"

    We call him "Mr. Playdough".

    And, I have a suspicion that those commercials have his body airbrushed to
    enhance the shadows, etc. before they tape him.

    I've seen enough pix of him with muscles to know that he can/does have
    some, but the way he looks on those commercials is just too perfect to get
    with lighting alone. I think it's makeup.

    He'd have surgery to look like that? Man, someone needs to be askin for
    their money back.

    Why would you put plastic surgery in quotes, Brink? And you misspelled
    it to boot! The OP spelled it correctly.

    Rich, did you mean his physique or his face? He may be wearing a wig
    and his eyebrows look shaped or plucked, but, other than that, he just
    looks like a built guy.

    Fitness celebrity (mentioned elsewhere) is hella funny, but with all
    the fitness guru competition, a little (okay, LOTS OF) self-promotion
    is necessary, I'd guess.

    I've never seen his show (also mentioned elsewhere in this thread) but
    I wouldn't be surprised if they used makeup. It's a video, after all.
    He's paying to have himself filmed in order to promote his product,
    right? http://www.fitnessmadesimple.com/

    I thought I read he died in the tsunami, in which case the
    plastic surgery question is moot.
