I wonder how much of that is padding and how much is tren and clen. He looks like a 250lb bodybuilder in the suit.
Even with the training and bulking, i suspect cutting would reveal a shape that falls quite a way short of that.
Not sure why they have gone for some an extreme look (even down to the amount of veins)
i only know about 2 people who can achieve that look (and currently do) and they both spend a reasonable amount on steriods/growth hormones
Just look at Chris Hemsworth:
These were taken a few years apart, but I guess if you have 6-12 months and enough money for a damn good PT, then you can pack a fair bit of muscle on.

There are a few in Hollywood who seem to be able to shed or gain weight/muscle at an alarmingly fast rate. Tom Hardy, Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, etc.

Its called drugs, that amount of muscle gain is nigh on impossible without drugs unless you have 10 years and you're a genetic freak! Just look at Chris Hemsworth:

I have no doubt there is definitely something a bit 'chemically' in their diet, but I doubt it's steroids. More than likely a fair amount of Creatine and a few fat burners.He's not actually that big or cut in comparison to most top natural bodybuilders, although they dedicate years to what they do rather then 6-12 months.
Why would Batman look like that?
Given he does a load of running, jumping and brawling, surely he should look more like a UFC fighter than a body builder. I know nothing of fitness but isn't that the wrong "type" of fitness?
I went for a long hike with a bloke who was built up like that, although obviously not that extreme. He kept getting out of breath going up the hills. You don't want Batman to be puffing and panting after a short run.

Wonder what build bumchin has naturally.
I can't post the pictures as I'm stuck behind a firewall at work, but he seems pretty average in terms of day-to-day build. I'd say he has a similar build to me, which is fairly broad shoulders, reasonable natural muscle mass but carry a bit of timber.There is a picture of him on Google images apparently taken quite recently (within last month) where he looks quite bulky, but not as huge as the Batman promo picture.
I'm going to assume he's put some muscle on, but the suit is tailored to make him look bigger.
With regards to the pictures:
For me personally, they have restored a glimmer of hope that this film might still turn out to be pretty good. I'm a fan of the new suit, I love that fact it's similar to the The Dark Knight Returns and will fit nicely with the MOS style.
Still not convinced about Affleck, but I learnt my lesson after Heath Ledger's Joker; so I'll withold judgement. I'm a big fan of Snyder and think he did a good job with MOS, so all is not lost.
The batmobile has shades of Tim Burton to it, which I don't think is a good thing.

Can I ask why, I think the burton Batmobile was the best looking next to the animated series Batmob of the early 90's. The Nolan Bat Tank whilst cool, didn't have the nice look of the burton sleek but muscular one.For me personally, they have restored a glimmer of hope that this film might still turn out to be pretty good.

This is a slight mash of the 2.
The batmobile in the new Arkham Knight game is a bit like this, the offspring of the tumbler and the burton batmobile, looks mega!
But each to our own.
Also pretty sure the suit has some armour in it, and the muscles are stylised, like the previous batsuits, this just has echoes of Adam west material over skin but it fact is anything but.
We will see soon, for me, Godzilla is in my main interest.
MoS was moulded to try and fit into a realistic world, so I am hoping that the MoS Batman will be the same.
I did had nightmares of the old tights returning. So armour is fine.
The Batmobile then obviously has to be practical. The Tumbler was ultimately practical, and had a reason to exist, ex-army issue.
The new one looks like the Tumbler but with some exterior styling, so still good.

I'm going to court controversy on this one, but I didn't really like the Tim Burton Batmans . Maybe its because I was a bit younger and I will admit its been a while since I watched them, but they just never sat right with me.Rick_1138 said:

Yeah, I've taken another look and I can see the blend between the two styles. I think it's to do with the fact the Burton Batmobile always looked like a giant cock....The batmobile in the new Arkham Knight game is a bit like this, the offspring of the tumbler and the burton batmobile, looks mega!

Yeah, I'd agree with that. I'm thinking under armour with some kind of material over the top, which I think is a good idea. It gives the same visual effect as the Frank Miller comics, while also giving it some grounding in reality. Batman was a little 'huge' in The Dark Knight Returns. I suppose it is similar to how Nolan dealt with a live action Bane.Rick_1138 said:

If you watch The Town you will see what size Affleck is and to be fair he is a bit of a unit
Indeed:
So he's got the frame and can build muscle, so I see no reason why he won't be pretty big and ripped for Batman, though the suit is certainly enhancing it with armour IMO.
Those looking at actors who can gain/lose muscle mass need look no further than Christian Bale, the master...

There are definitely enhancements in their diets, and I'd be honestly shocked if there wasn’t a form of steroid in their diets. They would obviously never admit it.
Mark wahlberg was reported to be on steriod to gain enough mass for pain & gain so he didnt look to small next to the rock
