when people think of Melvin they don't think of size.
They think of his posing

I have always said that the most prominant side effect of the juice is that it turns you into an instant liar

The lies start with . . . " I'm not on anything." or " I don't take steroids!" And then continue into body weight, measurments and poundages used.

A lot of Pros do lie about their measurments , maybe they're 22" off season , but very few Pros arms tape at 22" in contest shape.

not a damn chance his waist is only 4.5 inches bigger than his arms.  either his arms are a lot less than 22.5 or his waist is more like 30....or something in between.

Do you have any idea how big a 22 inch arm is---- its a leg !!!!
Title: Re: Melvin Anthonys arms..........
Post by: Rudee on January 17, 2006, 06:48:52 PM
Just look at a persons arms and compare it to his head.   Average circumference of a mans head is 21".  If his arm looks now way even close to his head in circumference, either he's got a very large head or a smaller arm.   More often than not it's the former.

Ya?  Did you ever work out in Oxnard, CA?  You know what, maybe it was Melvin Anthony I was talking too, you never know.  It was this black guy and I went there because it was Thanksgiving '97('98? cannot remember) and my gym was closed.  He said he had 22" arms and they sure looked it.  He said he won the O.C. but he could have been speaking of '96 if it was '97, don't know.

I know Melvin and we have had plenty of conversations and he does not claim 27 inch waist, he told me 28 inches at his smallest, his exact words "no one has a 27 inch waist". So unless you guys have heard it from his own mouth then he is not the one you guys should be calling liar.

The mags are the ones exaggerating and shit. So if the mags say 22.5 then they probably are like 21 off-season and maybe 20 contest.

You can expect (on average) for a competitor to have 18 inch arms at 200 lb shredded and then add 1 inch for every 15-20 lb of contest weight. Height, bone structures, proportions all may vary so this is only average.

yeah no way that waist is or gets that small.it would seem, however, with all the fat off, who knows, maybe 28inches.
dillet i could believe these measurements
Not the waist though, on a 280lb man a 33-34 inch waist would look tiny.

I just saw a video of Ronnie over in Korea back in 03 I think, he was fairly lean and they measured his arm at 21.6 inches. I think that shows that Anthony is exaggerating. His arms were never bigger than Ronnie's.

I saw that video and you are mistaken, they measured bigger then 21.6, I forget at the moment but I know it was bigger then that and in another video Coleman measured 58.5 cm which is way more then 21.6 but either way Melvin`s don`t come close

Exactly.
