Yea I haven't been working out for to long but ever since I have my goal was always like an 18" arm so thats what makes me pump harder and harder every day in the gym.
Is it normal for my tri's to be the majority of my arm? My bi's aren't as big as my tri's. And I work harder then hell on my bi's but my tri's are still overpowering them. |

It's a good thing this thread isn't about penis size.
Arm size without other stats like: height, weight and BF levels is pointless. Alot of guys have big arms when you measure them but most of it is fat. As we all know , fat takes up more space than muscle. The classic Hell's Angel look. If you want BIG arms .... train your bloody triceps real hard. That's where most of the size comes from. have fun. |

Thats what I'm hopin heh. My cousin is about 5'4"-5'5" and has like 18-20 arm and is 168lbs. He has 7% bf and he looks awsome. My goal was to look like him but hes been at it for a long time, so I am setting my own goals. But its one hell of a boost when I work out with him like 2 days a week b/c it makes me work twice as hard.

18 or 20 inches? Thats alot of variance believe me
 It would be pretty doubtfull for a guy that short to have 20" arms though, especially at that weight, your talking Lee Priest now.I dont think Dennis Newman ever broke 20.5" as a personal best, and he was taller, and looked pretty good. |

His arms are like double my size. When we put our arms next to each other it looks just about doubled. Not many people believe me when I say how big he is but this guy is massive. And if I have 14" arms then he has well over 4" on mine if not more. I need to get some pics of him for you guys.

Please do, I have a hard time believing he is bigger than Lee Priest
 I think you are suffering from the illusion, which many people do. I believe Momo Benaziza competed at 185, and was shorter, and of course less bodyfat.If he is that short, I have to assume he has been juicing for a good number of years. |

No he doesn't juice. He is so anti. But now it is really bothering me how big his arms really are. Next time this coming week i see him I'll take a pic with my phone so you guys can see it. I hope I am rite b/c by comparing his arms to mine they are HUGE but hey maybe it just looks that way.

Lee Priest is all natural too, just thought I'd let everyone know. Why dont you just ask him how big he is? A 2" difference is ALOT.
Do you remember how to calculate circumference? What I did years ago was plot out on paper, from 16" all the way to 22" arms to compare them, it is NOT linear, each additional inch is going to be a good deal more mass than one might think, when they dont really think about it. That is why a 22" arm or even a 20" arm, makes a 16" arm look like a toothpick, I look like a stick boy with 16" arms. |

so read an article and it said to measure upper arms, it's cold and flexed.. measure at the peak.. so in that case my arm is 17".. i'm 18yrs old, 220lbs (~16% bf), and 6' tall
*sigh* thank God cuz i was seeing these big time stats (18, 19, 20" and mine didn't match up (when i measured my arm straight and unflexed).. made me depressed as to how far i needed to keep going |

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Well, I have been going since 2 weeks post-op. But I started only doing light legs, and left arm stuff. I slowly moved to heavy legs and heavy left arm, and light right arm stuff.
I am building back strength in the right arm but am very limited in what wexercises I can do, and am just now starting back exercises. |
