Man crush is strong in this thread
This kind of list is extremely long. There more lean muscular "aesthetic" powerlifters than there are those that are in the super heavy weight class.My Training Journal: http://tinyurl.com/jasons-journal

lmao that's a VERY good question. and you're right. I've literally watched hours and hours and hours of basically all the USAPL nationals and IPF worlds and even the world games footage over the last couple years. I can say that i'm truly surprised by the lack of dudes with actual lean muscle mass. The good majority of them if they were wearing normal clothes you would never even be able to tell they worked out.
There are a few exceptions though, look at the deadlift king Kryzstof Wierzbicki. He has a pretty good physique.we understand that uglienesss and fattness are disorders, much like baldness and necrophilia.. and its only your fault if you dont hate yourself enough to do something about it-dodgeball

USAPL and IPF competitors are the most thoroughly tested. There's 2 reasons I believe a lot of the top guys are clean in those federations.
1. Powerlifting is a rare sport because it has untested competitions where people can openly compete while using PEDs and those federations often have better prize money.
2. The USAPL and IPF use USADA/WADA who are as strict as their budget permits them to be. They do out of competition testing, and are actively trying to catch people, rather than being a token gesture.
3. No one gets rich and famous from powerlifting. incentive to cheat is low when you can take whatever you want and compete in an untested federation.
It's not perfect but it's a lot better than people assume.Levicticus 27-3: set the value of a male between the ages of twenty and sixty at fifty shekels of silver, for a female, set her value at thirty shekels

Many of the Elite USPA are lean. Remember this is a sport with weight categories, why carry fat if you don't have to. The heavy weights (308 and over) don't care about being lean. I am an Elite, in 11 hours I weight in for the IPL Worlds and compete Friday. I'm lean and most are at this level. Oh and I am 100% natty. I'm not getting paid why would I take something that may have negative affects in the future.

Height would be the factor. 2 guys can be lean at 93kg, but if one is 5'5 and one is 6'2, with the same bodyfat, one of them is significantly more jacked.

Ben was doing a photo shoot right next to me while I was training frame carries last Saturday night. I think he was talking about how he wants to be like Stan Efferding since he feels like moving up to 220 is pointless with the freak that is Yuri Belkin putting up such insane numbers. So maybe he'll be going for IFBB status soon.

I nominate myself. Joking aside Mike O' Tren? Natty... Jessie Norris. Impossible to give a serious answer to this question. Too many variables. Natty.. Sorta natty... not natty... Overall great physique or freaky bodypart....

I feel as if a lot elite level 82 kg powerlifters are pretty aesthetic. Coming from experience, we lift heavy weight around everyday, burn a ton of calories doing so, and have to keep our weight relatively in range of 181 lbs. Imo, thats a recipe for a pretty aesthetic looking dude.
