Reply With QuoteWe have very limited time to post polls so I rushed through on the measurements. So for example, if you arms are 17" then use 17-18", not 16-17". If they are 16 7/8" then use the 16-17" option.
MEASURE THEM FLEXED WITHOUT A PUMP!

I'm currently in the 19-20 range, but well defined I'd be around 18". I haven't been doing direct arm training, so I can't complain. Especially with the limited time I've been training again. I'd like acheive 19" at my goal weight of 230lbs...

My arms rip up first, and I am popping veins at 17 %, I am sure I have competed at about 12%.
Women are 'shredded' at around 10% ususally. I think this is more the 'fit look' range for men.
I think people confuse men and women's bodyfat percentages, the ranges are VERY different

Big enough that I can squat and deadlift a decent amount of weight.
