Measurement Critiques

[IJ26]

Alright I think my measurements are decent but Im always looking to improve and I need a new outside opinion and what I should be looking to improve upon. ive never done a show but I am really interested in doing one but I want to know what needs to be fixed before I enter.

Im 21 5'8 197(weighed today) and around 8%
Chest-43
Chest Delts- 53
Hips-39
Abs-32.5
Wrists-7 1/8
Arms-16.75
Forearms-14
Calves-17
Ankles-10
Thigh-26
Neck-17.75

your measurements are very close to mine.

your frame seems to be bigger than mine, but at that height the proportions are easily better. Arms could probably use some more work, calves, waist needs to go down. Not too sure exactly because there is no pic. A lot easier to critique for a show with a pic.

Not bad at all especially at a pretty look body fat level. Many people need to get to 15%+ for those measurements.

i have always like measurements around this.

neck/calf/arm = the same size.

waist/thigh = the same size.

chest = double your waist.

those to me are ideal measurments.

Thanks for the critiques

Man, double your waist for a chest size? So, at a 34 inch waist, I need a 68 chest at 5'8"? I've got a way to go.

I was just picturing some powerlifters trying to get 80+ inch chests. lol

 

[IronLion]

um double waist chests are not really possible.......

btw IJ26 your hips measurement is small compared to your chest.....you might want to get your ass a little bigger

 

[Backlash]

Waist/thigh the same also seems a bit of a stretch, though I guess elite body builders do get this sometimes...

well probably not.......... but i have seen a picture of Arnold with his chest at around 56........ and him doing a vaccum that sucked his waist down to about 28 inches.......... so i guess thats more what i meant.

ok........ so maybe the waist/chest leg thing is off. but i still like the idea of having the same size arms, neck, and calves.
