Symonds is another fit guy, so is Mitchell Johnson

probably using a double like in bollywood movies
 
why do people here hate on people with good physiques, it's either "steroids", "photoshop" or "two big"

Amazing physique. It's like the perfect balance between aesthetics and functional.
 
thats pretty sick phsique.. this guy must work his ass off in gym everyday... i doubt if there is any other cricketer with this much lean and toned body

He actually does no weight training now, he had slimmed down a fair bit from Hulk like body a while back cos kept getting injured.

But would not be many cricketers in better shape than Watson. Doesn't mean he can necessarily play though. :Sami
 
I'd say he has not overdone at all. He doesn't look sick, no veins are visible, and he still looks lean and fit in addition to being well-built.

If people can keep this kind of look while being regular gym goers, I have nothing at all about heavy gym-work. But how many people can keep the balance and not overdo it?

Judging by the photos, Watson definitely is the fittest cricketer around.
 
who else do you guys think would rival watson? Symonds is actually SMALLER than watson surprisngly

Don't know for sure but I suspect Symo has let himself go a little in the past year....

Symonds is built, but he isnt as toned as Watson... Watson has nil body fat and all muscle, Symonds looks like he has some flab

I know he's built, looks nothing much compared to Watson tho. Watson is straight diesel.
 
What hypocricy? Watson has had many hamstring tears, and a career threatening back injury. He has only just recently been consistently fit and has attributed it to a disciplined lifestyle and cutting down Alcohol. I wish Akhtar would take a cue. But Watson is not the fittest. Lee definately is.

We weren't talking about being fit in terms of how many injuries he gets or something, we're talking about his physique, physically fit

I have seen a shirtless pic of Lee as well. He isnt too bad either. I have a shirtless pic of Akhtar from 2006, he was literally the same as Watson is now, cant say about how he looks recently.

Post it :akhtar
 
Lee is the fittest imo.

Being fit is something different than having a six-pack etc. Just look at the amount of injuries Watson had in his short medium-pace career with Lee with his express pace

@Savak, i want to see that pic from 2006, as i dont think Akhtar was so lean in 2006...
 
now I know the reason why lee's wife left him

P.S. are we all admiring a guy without his shirt on?

That's not really true, Watson has slowed his bowling but still hits 140kph from time to time.

When he was injury prone he was bowling quick about 145kph. Used to be a genuine fast bowler. Which is why the selectors got so excited about him.

nothing wrong with admiring, mean that in the most non-homo way possible
 
Lol akthar has never been in the physical shape Watson is, please. Maybe with his jersey on he had decent bulk, but without Im pretty sure he can't match Watson. You can high plenty of little flaws in a shirt As long as you have decent shoulders alot of flaws in you're arms, stomach area, etc are hidden.
 
Fit six pack, 12 pack Shirtless people should always be admired.
 
:)) :)) Ok. Now dont die of laughter but this is a shirtless pic of Akhtar from the Indian series of 2007. He lifted his shirt up for the camera. I leave judgement in your hands. Unfortunately, its a hairy, desi stomach. I will post the 2006 pics when i get home.

Enjoy. :))) :))) :akhtar :akhtar

Ah that explains.

But even if he was express pace, Lee is above him in terms of fitness

Lulz at the gay thread, but I guess Dale Steyn would be one of the biggest players. This thread is not about fitness I'm guessing, cause Watson has been unfit regularly.
 
This is fast turning from 'the fittest cricketer' to 'the gayest PPer' thread. :yk
 
A lot of usage of Mr.G (3 letter) in this thread

Remember that DM? :))) :))) legend

Akhtar follows a strict weight training regime. His diet is 60% carbs, 30% protein and 10% Calcium, Fiber, Liquids e.t.c. He weight trains 5-6 days a week for 2 hours daily.

Thats definitely overtraining if that's true. 2 hours daily is waay too long in the weights room, and if he's hitting it 6 times a week, there is't even body parts to hit on alternate days.

Not to mention the many various supplements ranging from Creatine, Nitric Oxide to Hydroxycut and Deca, prolly now on Halodrol and Novedex XT.

He's damn cricketer not a body builder with no stamina....
It's been proven to Bulk you can't have much Cardio, yet he is trying to be like a tank. WIth excess weight of course it's gonna fatigue the hell out of him and with the smoking clogging his blood vessels.
 
Seriously also ***? He trains 5-6 times weekly for 2 hours? Without so much supplements and anabolic steroids, that's serious overtraining...

NO WONDER THE DAMN GUY GETS INJURED!!!
 
Everytime I say watson bowl, I thought why in the world can he bowl faster,.. But has to say his body is mind blowing,, Many girls wud die for him.. HAHA I wish I had a body like him.
 
decide for yourself!
my pick is mitchell johnson! none of the desi players come even close!

Johnson for proportion and tone, Watson and Symonds for mass.

Mitchel johnson looks like Bruce lee there, he must have a really high metabolism rate or something like that. Thats the ideal physique for fast bowlers. I think Steyn and Brett lee are pretty similar.

Thats only talking in terms of cricket, in the ring symonds would crush both of them by himself. :wasim

If you searched topless Aussie cricketers on Google to find this, I am greatly disturbed.

154-155 km/hr on flat pitches. Output super bowling speed.


for how many overs a day and how many days a year?
 
Noman said:
Does he have removed body hair in the last picture or what?

Of course he does. And that isn't the first time he's done it either. Reason he gets so hairy is because he waxes and each time the hair grows back thicker.

And Savak, may I ask what you are doing with pictures of a topless Shoaib?
 
This thread is a classic example that at PP we don't discriminate ! :yk

Sorry missed your post. Ideally i would like him to bowl 15-20 overs max in a day with a max of 4-5 over spells. Ideally every day Pakistan plays in a cricketing year.

Just a collection. He isnt the only shirtless guy i have on my system. I am weight lifting and like to compare physiques.
