Natural bodybuilder Joel Kellett became internet famous because of his phenomenal physique. However, many bodybuilders and fitness influencers have built great physiques. What makes Kellett’s physique special is that his genetics are eerily similar to that of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Hence, the bodybuilding community wasted no time in labeling Kellett the “natty” Schwarzenegger.

The competitive bodybuilder has also embraced the identity. Earlier, Overkell uploaded a series of photos replicating two of the Austrian Oak’s favorite poses. The fans couldn’t help but admire the beauty of his posing.

Emulating Arnold Schwarzenegger

Australian bodybuilder Joel Kellett emulated the Austrian legend in his Instagram post. Kellett uploaded three images of himself hitting the classic variation of the mandatory Arnold Schwarzenegger poses. In the first image, the bodybuilder outstretched his left arm and tucked his right arm to his torso.

The pose was an artistic variation of the side chest pose that Schwarzenegger preferred. In the following photograph, everything remained the same, except this time, he slightly angled his physique and flexed his biceps. The pose also proved why fans call Kellett the ‘Natural Arnold.’

“The old school is in your blood, my friend,” commented the bodybuilding fan. One fan even made a bold statement about Kellett’s physique. While the Australian competes in natural bodybuilding, the fans wanted him to compete and qualify for the Classic Physique Olympia. “I almost want this guy to hop on gear so he can show the classic physique division what being classic really is. Just unbelievable!” wrote the fan.

While Joel Kellett has built a physique that resembles Arnold Schwarzenegger, he has also built his own identity. While many fans think he would do great as a professional bodybuilder, Kellett insists on remaining natural. Instead, he wants to perfect the art of posing, among other aspects.
