Thumbs up or one finger pointing flexes the forearm better than a peace sign?

Because they are all insecure on the inside, and no matter how big they are, they try to look even bigger every chance they can get.  Notice in this pic, Kovacs went for the fist bump, but the novice/twink/schmoe on the left went with the thumbs up, as if to say "no way man, I'm doin the thumbs up, fist bump won't show my biceps from this angle."  What a tool, check the fanny pack.

Lie Priest got one of the best thumb up poses in bb ever. Very good development of the "hand muscle". Musclecenter trains this pose more though and got it down to a T. Lie is a great practioner but musclecenter is more hardcore. Both are proud members of the thumbs up pose lifetime achivers.

It's from the old military days that the gays used to signal to other gays that they like it up the ass.  Saw it in a WWII documentary

Its the natural thing to do. Bodybuilders are always positivily motivated towards continuosly bigger/better goals, hence the thumbs up in pictures. Dont make a big deal out of it.
