his look seems surprised, the light seems a bit harsh on his body and placed a bit behind him so that the shadows don't show his muscle definition.

Somehow the lighting in this shot almost makes it look as though he's pasted in to the background. But I like the idea of lighting and shooting in parking lots vice studios. Just can't help with how to set up the lights as I haven't a clue! |

I've taken shots of my son in a similar pose. The forced look comes from trying to accentuate those muscles as much as possible, so it looks 'normal' to me for what it is. |

It's the hand position especially that looks forced, I think, though his expression seems a bit strained, too. |

The lighting seems off.
It doesn't accentuate his physique at all, and like Karen pointed out, looks a little forced.
I did this, but it took 30 attempts to get the lighting semi-correct.
The inspiration for my take came from this photo by nsjabs.
You could always throw a fill light in the front and I think it would look really good. I can tell that you have lights on both sides of the subject and because of the amount of light, no definition comes through. |

I find the pose a bit too forced - but I really know nothing about people photography. |
