Moustafa Ismail has a dream of making a name for himself on the world professional bodybuilding scene.
(http://www.wickedlocal.com/franklin/archive/x1761816376/g12c000000000000000d40520121fea272dbf7ca3ea263502b2773f26eb.jpg)
The 24-year-old Franklin resident may have gotten his foot in the door recently when representatives of the Guinness Book of World Records made a special trip from London to measure his bulging arms — Herculean muscles measuring a whopping 31 inches around. Ismail’s arms could be the biggest and strongest in the world, according to his friend and manager Justin Sulham of Foxborough.
Nobody will know for sure until the newest edition of the record book comes out next September, but just the fact that Guinness sent a team to photograph and measure Ismail’s impressive biceps and triceps — a gathering of data that took place on Nov. 1 — is enough to make both men proud. “It took me 15 years of working out, working out,” said a grinning Ismail.
Coming originally from Alexandria, Egypt, Ismail had eyed a position on the national bodybuilding team of Egypt, but found the dream hampered by the limited resources there. So he turned his eyes westward. Sulham, himself a bodybuilder, is helping him along the way, offering support and encouragement and a challenge: He and Ismail are both preparing to compete in a major bodybuilding event, the Jay Cutler Classic, in May. It will be Ismail’s attempt at earning his pro card.
“We will be competing against one another,” said Sulham. Sulham is also directing a documentary film following Ismail in his quest for the world record and his pro bodybuilding dream, with help from Shaun Cyr of North Attleboro and a team of about eight others — the hope is to release the film at the same time as the 2012 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records, and to show it at various film festivals.
“Here in America he (Ismail) is finding people do not understand his physique, his record breaking arms. This film will tell his story, and introduce people to the man beneath the biceps,” Sulham said. The filming will continue through the next year, he said, and there are plans to make a trip to Egypt to get some footage there. He said the focus is on making the film inspirational and family friendly. “I want people to enjoy it, laugh a little bit, be inspired themselves, and all in all walk away from the screening thinking ‘if he can achieve his dreams, so can I,’” said Sulham.
Sulham met Ismail at Gold’s Gym in Foxborough in January and was instantly impressed with his arms. He was convinced Ismail was in the running as a record-breaker, and was further inspired by Ismail’s pursuit of his dream to break into the bodybuilding world. After having previously formed a friendship with filmmaker Christopher Bell, who is known for his film “Bigger, Stronger, Faster: The Side Effects of Being American” that won in the documentary category at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, Sulham got interested in doing film himself.
“I became inspired to shoot a documentary, but I didn’t know on what. Fast forward a few months. I met him (Ismail) and I said, ‘that’s the film. I’m going to help him break the world record.’” Sulham contacted Guinness and got the ball rolling.
He certainly knew what he was talking about, having made his own name on the bodybuilding scene — he is a past winner of the state Strongman championship and spent time ranked among the state’s strongest men until an injury put him temporarily into a wheelchair in 2009. Now Sulham is determined to help Ismail earn a niche in the bodybuilding world, and perhaps reclaim his as well.
The film and the upcoming competition, said Sulham, “was a way to challenge myself and to challenge Mo to want to break the record.”
Ismail comes from strong stock. His father was an Egyptian wrestler, he said. “My father, he was big naturally,” said Ismail, who recounted hours and hours spent at gyms in Alexandria as a kid, even spending the night sometimes so he could work out before school — at one gym he was told he was too small and shouldn’t come, but he disregarded the criticism and didn’t let his dream die, even going on to open his own gym.
Now at 270 pounds, Ismail said he really enjoys the atmosphere of the bodybuilding gym where “it’s just lifting the weights and screaming.” “I get up at 5 a.m. I try to get done with work by 11 because I want to go work out. Then I go to my next job from 3 to 11,” said Ismail. Ismail runs two gas stations, including Irving on Lincoln Street in Franklin and a station on Rte. 9 east, while Sulham works part-time at a GNC store and runs security at a bar.
Keeping up his body is a lot of work, said Ismail. In a day, he may take in as much as three pounds of chicken, and a pound of steak or fish. When he takes in carbs, he may eat an entire box of rice or a whole sleeve of rice cakes, plus up to four cups of almonds and two gallons of water, plus protein shakes. Then there are the work outs. Ismail lives for his workouts, which he completes at least six days a week.
“It makes me in a better mood. You’re just focusing. And I like that in this type of sport you can see your improvement in your shape. I know they are growing, my chest, my shoulders, my arms. I love the weights.” His personal best so far, he said, was lifting 500 pounds for six repetitions. The upcoming competition, says Ismail, “it’s not about the title. It’s about finding trust in yourself.”
“Then you can go around the world and compete with no fear,” he said. As for Sulham, he said one of his main reasons for doing the film on Ismail and helping him pursue his dream is “to do something worthwhile.” “For me, I want to feel I did something that mattered with my life, and I feel helping a man achieve his dream of making history and shattering a world record will allow me to do that,” he said.

This really brings the authenticity of Guinness world records into question..
-
hopefully they will consult with someone who knows what they are talking about before giving him the nod.
They don't look anywhere near 31" though, nowhere near Valentinos proportions and didn't he oil up to 27"?This really brings the authenticity of Guinness world records into question..

Yes, Phil's arms are so full of oil, you can see it thru all the striations ::)
and Phil's forearms are full of oil as well, even though he uses a forearm machine at the gym ::)
plus, Phil's arms are about 8 inches smaller.
Is this the fat gut that was pictured on the subway with his girl?
-
agreed, someone contact guinness and give them the heads up!

yes phil his arms are full of oil...
when injected deep enough you keep all the striations..... you should know that!
and yes bodybuilders do inject in forearms!
and i was not talking about size... i said the are just as full of oil.. never mentioned a number....
this guy just does not have the mass..... when you have mass , and inject deep enough.... = phill.....
when you overdo stuff you have valvolino... and guys like him....
-
It is insulting to call this guy a bodybuilder. He his a disgrace
-

alot of times it works opposite. like when valentino was on tv . people who saw that show started thinking anyone with big arms had them full of oil. they would see a legit bodybuilder and say they saw that show and those arms are just full of oil.

If this guy enters the JC Classic,he`s gonna` place dead last.

Arnold's guns are so insane - still impressive as fuck.

Or at least should...
He doesn't seem to be carrying ANY real size, at all.

LOL awesome
His 'Manager' is a delusional fat guy who used to post at bodybuilding.com... since he apparently has spent some time in a wheelchair since then I don't think he'll be placing too highly in the Cutler classic either

I gather Levrone had 21s with no oil (5'9) and early Flex had 20-21s (5'10), of course Ronnie, and Chris Cormier, even Charles Chairmonte, I'd give Darrem Charles a nod as well.

Congrats Moustafa you stupid fucking piece of shit.

a 20 inch arm is huge!!! huge!!! even when the dude is 6'plus!
and numbers mean shit anyway... i have seen bodybuilders with arms that measured only 16,5 inches... they looked huge lol!
ILLUSION!!!

Its not hard to tell the difference between a weight trained arm and an idiot who injected a ton of oil in his arms because he has a 1/2 inch penis.

Somebody stole that guys lats, along with his brain. Pro card at the Jay Cutler Classic ::)

Scar tissue that I wish you saw.

yess bro , but you would be amazed how many "normal" people WOULD think that is muscle...
not everybody knows bodybuild, almost nobody really.... it's not a popular "sport"
same like when they see you work out, and then they say well i have a nephew who is bigger than you.... bigger arms!! he is huge!
then you meet the guy, and turns out he is a fat ass! lol...
regular people have no clue.... hell.... 90% of this board still has no clue.... ;D ;D ;D

What a freaken bafoon!

all these great bodybuilders have/had oil/esciclene in the muscle bro....
ron just had superior shape! but if you think ronnie did not site inject well... i will not go and call you stupid lol.. ;D ;D ;D
site injection with steroids is also oil!!!!!!!!!!!! and esciclene was kevin his tool..... he used a lot of it! as did flex...
and Darrem...??? well ....those peaks are his shapewise yes.... but greatly enhanced by whatever he could get his hands on...
do you really think that if regular joe the gymrat site injects his gear in whatever muscle he wants to pump up a bit, that pro's who make money off their physiques have not figured that one out??? and that they do not do it better? with better products??
arnold did it to.... as did every bodybuilder who injected gear... i figured it out on my own when i saw my butt cheeck swell up from the sustano.. i thought... mmmm what if??? what if i put that in my biceps....
pro's are no diffrent... not then, and not now....
abusers! and it's all about illusion.... no measuringtape is present on stage.
-
Jounalists and guiness people can't distinguish a bodybuilder with muscle in his arms from whatever that joke with the beard is..?

looks shopped....

it is heavily shopped, I see now

True
-
I think thats what arnold would look like on some hgh sick!!
Arnold is way down in size in that pic,he had much bigger arms than that as a rule.
-
yea that was during his 1980 training for his comeback
Arnold is way down in size in that pic,he had much bigger arms than that as a rule.
-
Arnold is way down in size in that pic,he had much bigger arms than that as a rule.
i must be looking at other pictures.....
arnolds arms are BIG there.....
not that much smaller then when he was full blown...
he has no pump in the pic.... the angle is not optimal.... but still those are BIG arms....
-
Arnolds arms are smaller than at his best, but still big and defined
-
Here we go again.... who gives a shit about measurements???
Christ almighty.....it is all about the appearance of the arms....not what the tape measure reads.
-
Somebody is fucken high, those arms in the pic are 24 not 31, WTF, if those are 31, he has biggest head in the world ???
-
Religion of peace ::)
-
Where's that elevator guy when we need him?
-
I try and wonder what could possibly be going through a guy like this' head to want to do this to himself. Does he honestly think this is a good look? Is he like the young child who wants recognition so badly they will even misbehave to get attention?
I mean really, people who do this must have a very real mental condition. There isn't a single mentally stable person who would look at those arms and think that is appealing.

I already know this..Flex admitted thathe used "E", he detailed how he would use a "T" formation on his delts...I also suspect that is how his calves got big in the infamous black and white unitard pic...We've been down this road before with him
