Bloody Hell!!!!!!!
That should be the aim for most BB's, not the silly look of today.
Besides his website and the article with Author Jones, is there any other info on Sergio? Interviews and/or picturs?
Thanks for posting that.
With all respect, I am not making this into a flame, but with a statement like that it just dose not make sense unless you know his exact sets reps and intensity, also an individuals recovery time.
Be a little bit more open to other ideas otherwise that advise you gave is, well, crap :)
It's...
Is there some biterness about wanting to measure your arms and keep track of your success?
Isn't that why most get into the lifting game, to improve.
What's wrong with measuring?
Some have goals to put on x amount of size, be it the tape or the scales.
Those that bitch about people pulling the...
Well I have tried all the styles and have settled on my own.

Like I said I was around 19" once, they looked NOTHING near Arnolds mass.
Yes I believe Aurthur is suffering some sort of disfunction :)
I am just presenting the story as I read it and in an unbiased way (almost). It's not my article.
Personally I think Arnies arms...
I was reading some articles by Aurthur Jones. (Mike Mentzer's intellectual God)
Anyway he claims to have personally messured the arm of the great SERGIO OLIVER, Arnold, Mike Metzner and Bill Pearl.
Sergio's arms came in at over 20 1/8"
Arlnold claimed 22.5"...
AH I see, I thought you said it in a sarcastic way, that it couldn't be done.
I was just saying that I could :)
Sorry about the mix up. Hope I didn't come across badly as it wasn't meant that way.
Cheers.
