For all of y'all who are all curious about WODIN just come to the DC area meetup.

And no I'm not gonna take pics cos most people don't want their pics up on EF.

which is why this thread is useless without pics, there were lunch ladies at my jnr high with 22" arms.

Mine are just over 17.5" cold, 34.5" waist.

reading the internet you'd think an 18" lean arm is pretty average

Well consisering this is a bodybuilding board who's primary forum is the anabolic forum, and the majority of the guys on here juice... 18" arms had damn well better be the average.

Year round gear helps, but I use low doses and there are some guys ont eh board who cycle and use mor total mg in a year than that with 16" arms.

Now you are absolutely right about some big guys using the lighter weights, but you might want to obversve their training year round. Alot of them periodize or do both light and heavy workouts in teh same week. The guy with the 20" arms at your gym who you see doing 4 set of 15 on close grip presses with 225, might come in once every two weeks and do a set of 5 reps with 405 or even a routine where you works the weight up and drops reps every week for 8-12 weeks. I have workouts where I use #20 dumbells for my bicepts and do slow, controled dumbell curls in the 20 rep range with 30 seconds between sets. Most of the guys I've met with 20+ in arms do alternate very light and very heavy arm workouts in one manner or another.

i have to say, that's a very good point, BBF.

Most of the guys on the anabolic board use cycles that are more agressive than what they did. Plus we have access to alot of drugs they did not. Menzer had 18.5" btw. He claimed to did cycles like 300 mg of deca once a week with 25-30 mg of dbol a day. We have peeps on EF who have MAYBE 17" arms who were on stacks like:
250 mg of sust every day
100 mg of dbol every day
600 mg of primo every week

As well as several guys on here with less than 18" arms who have admiting to doing over 2 grams a week in some of their cycles.

Something wrong with this picture?

lol BBF that exactly the point I was getting at Insane cycles won't get you big arms if you train like a pussy and eat shit. It's mindblowing that guys who can't bench 405 or squat double bw would be doing grams and grams a week of heavy androgens for months straight.

I remember galaxy posting that his arms are 'only' about 19" and he's monsterous compared to some of the more, how can I put it nicely, slightly less impressive looking aas forum regulars.

last i measured they were 16" give or take some change.. but they feel a little smaller these days.
i havent cycled though.. and i sure as hell can't closegrip 225lbs

Contest shape or offseason?

Mentzer's arms especially forearms always looked huge to me....probably because of his height....


Also I think people are underplaying the role of genetics in arm growth....
