I was just thinking that. Not trying to toot my own horn but I look pretty damn close to him. I started working out/lifting seriously in 2012.

Now you have to be the Chris Hemsworth performance enhancing actor generation to be "huge." He wouldn't be considered shit nowadays, but back then you could just be dedicated and shredded. Now you have to be on gear too.

Then again there were enormous pro wrestlers in the 80s who made Vin Diesel look tiny, so the performance enhancement look definitely isn't that new to the public.
