right now they are a tad over 18"...I'm cutting but they are the same as my calves and neck. I can get them to 19" no problem as they where last year, but I'm training strictly for symmetry so I need to grow my calves larger first...
how big are your calves and neck ? |

Damn those are some big guns! How much do you guys weigh? How much do you curl? I am 5'10" about 200 lbs and I think (have't measured in a while) my arms are somewhere in the 15-16 inch range, and I thought that was decent. I can curl about 150 for 4-5 reps pretty strict, which also ain't bad. What're ya'll curlin' 250?

Right now im around the 230lbs range, i have always been into a big part of powerlifting, partials and stuff like that, my best curl was a partial preacher curl with 330 lbs. Keep in mind this was from 90 degrees up, so it was pretty easy as far as curling goes. Best one arm curl with machine preacher was 140 lbs, can't seem to get over 100lbs with one arm free weight. Free weight barbell curl was only 220lbs, should be getting up there pretty soon.

Lets see, my shirt says 34/35. I guess my arms are about 35 inches long.
Measured about a month ago and they were 17 1/8", and I weigh 214. |

I remember one of your post where you said your were under 245lb, 20" arms for someone that light is somthing, I'd say your a bit of a genetic freek in the arm department.
I'm guessing they look a little funny on your body though, how does the rest of your body measure up? Whats your hight like? Just wondering. ![]() |

I am 6' tall, and yeah and they do get noticed, the funny thing is that in relation to my biceps i dont have much size for triceps. That brings me to the fact that if i can get my triceps to grow i would be looking at maybe a couple of more inches on my arm. Biceps were always what i wanted and worked for. As soon as i get my extra usb connections up and running i will be able to hook up my digital camera and post a few pics, err after i get a bit of a tan. Can u say pasty.

your arm should be roughly the same size as your calves and neck.

Not to be disrespectful, but I'm having a hard time believing some of the measurements being thrown around here...18, 19, 20 inches !!!!! Some pros only have 19-21 inch arms and weigh about 215-225. I think their is some exaggerating going on around here...

I have to second gopro. Some of these numbers sound outrageous, like I said I haven't checked my arm size in a while but I think its in the 16-17 range, and I think they'd stack up to most around here, and I weight 205 at 5'10".
17 inch arms (that are cut up and not bloated with fat) are quite impressive. 19 or 20 inches are ludicrous! |

OKAY let me check, and lets not exaggerate here, we know if you posted your arm "size" how much is everyone curling? Ya know, good ole straight bar, strict reps?
My "puny" bis curl about 145-155 for 5 or 6 reps. |
