In the caption, he narrated the significance of posing right on stage. The Shadow wrote, “Of course, have to give credit to those people I modeled it from, I remember both Samir Bannout and Lee Labrada doing this pose. They have their way of doing it and I changed it to suit myself.? He emphasized the fact that even if the pose was a compulsory one, there was some individuality that everybody built into the pose. The particular pose in the picture was, ?A strong pose because I can showcase the bicep, calves, forearm, and inner thigh which are mostly strong points for myself.???
