Tonus & Repin
Repin Repin
Hey, I was just looking at some old 18th‑century Italian drawings of the human figure, and it struck me how much those artists cared about muscle detail, just like you sculpt your physique. Have you ever thought about how a painter’s eye for anatomy parallels a bodybuilder’s eye for form?

Yeah, both focus on the same thing: the structure underneath. A painter studies the tension of a muscle under the skin, I train the muscle itself. The difference is that one works on paper, the other works in a gym. Respect to the old masters; I respect a good workout.

I see the effort, but remember that a true sculptor of flesh does more than lift weights; he studies the line, the shadow that tells the story of the muscle. The old masters didn’t just paint muscles—they painted how light fell on them, how tension pulled the skin taut. If you want to be as convincing as a 1773 fresco, your training must echo that precision. Keep your work honest, and don’t let repetition become a mere echo.
