Hey guys,I was just searching for some bodybuilding books on amazon.com and I was expecting that Arnold's Encyclopedia must be the first book it's going to show,instead there is some new book by Robert Kennedy "Encyclopedia of bbing" and what struck me the most was it's cover.
The man on the cover is holding a 45 or 50lb plate and he looks really amazing(IMO).And I couldn't recognize who this guy is,I just wanna know who is he.From the looks of it,he looks like some competitive bber. So anyone can tell who this guy is.

Doesn't look like any competitive IFBB pro I know of, obviously hard to judge from that picture. I've been googling and can't find anything, sorry.

I have that book...I don't think it gives any credits to who is on the front cover, but I'll look. I really don;t think that is Mattarazzo.

That's not matarrazzo. I don't know who it is. I don't think it's an IFBB pro; maybe an amateur. Don't know.

I think that's only because in the cover he's holding a plate and you would flex the hell out of your lower mid section if you were holding it down there.Originally Posted by flangmasterj

I'm glad you like the picture...it was taken by Paul Buceta. I also did a really great photo shoot session with Alex Ardenti (hey Alex, we must have shot every arm exercise known to man, lol).Originally Posted by vicky

True! They still have only published a fraction of what we shot.
Next time tell Bob to put your name in the credits if you're going to be on the cover! :-)
