I like that picture! ;D

After I saw the Dillet thread, Lee's arms are nothing special anymore
-
the biggest i've ever seen Lee's arms was the picture in Musclemag where he's shaking hands with Craig Titus in the gym, he's wearing a blue Powerhouse Gym t-shirt and his arms look as big as Craig's chest.
-

Craig got a chest?

if one cant achieve big arms at 5'3 then there is something wrong, he should look big he so short and small,
-

But think about it, Lee's arms are a bit bigger than Dillet's. However Lee is almost a foot shorter than Paul. So, on a pound for pound basis, Lee blows Dillet out of the water.

But they actually are big ::)

How do you know that? Very unlikely given the height differential. Dillet's arms look better to me.

Keep reading FLEX, I'm sure you'll understand one day..... ::) ::) ::)

incredibly doubtful that lee's arms are bigger than paul's. a 6'1 dillet's arms look enormous even for his height. not as much as the 5'3 lee, but plenty to tell you he's got a fair number of inches on him.

One of the suckers. ::) ::) ::)
Very little chance Priest's arms are even close. You haven't figured out that on a short guy those arms look bigger than they are. Dillet's over 6'.

Please tell me he didn't actually think their arms are the same size ::)

Pound for pound you retarded monkey fece-sniffing imbeciles. ::)

actually wouldn't that be "for his height"? this pound for pound bullshit gets on my nerves. his arms are huge for his height.
but anyway, dingus, you said lee's arms were "a bit bigger" than paul's, and because he was shorter that meant he blew dillet out of the water. clearly you meant that lee's taped bigger than paul's and the height difference made lee's even better. except for the fact that dillet had arms that looked too big for his body and was over six feet tall. that's an even crazier accomplishment.
-
okay I agree lee's arms may be bigger than some of the taller guys, but not dillet's. Dillet is just a freak of nature, he was probably the only guy to actually have 24 inch arms, although others have claimed it.
-
wow priest has some huge guns
Monster bicep peaks
-
Lee Priest and Paul Dillet were roomates for a year or so. Ive noticed in this post and other posts similar to this one that people have compared Priest's arms to Dillets and the main point made was that Priest had the same arm shape and mass as Dillet except Priest is shorter.Ive even heard on one post where someone said Dillet looked like a taller version of Priest.Its possible that their training style were similar and that thats y their physiques look so similar in appearence,i.e. Priest being a shorter version of Dillet.Living together they must have discussed and compared training styles.Lee Priest kiks ass
-
And whats amazing is that those pics of dillett were 10 yrs ago!!!! He was the closest ever to reaching cartoon size proportions. He was a high rep guy like flex. I hate those guys that grow so easy. >:(
-
I've said it once and I'll say it again; Priest's arms and delts completely destroy his symmetry, and make his chest look like one of a 12 year old girl. Isn't bodybuilding all about proportion and symmetry ???
-
dillets chest looks small too
-
Dillet's arms dwarfs Lee's entire height
-
dillets chest looks small too
He's way better proportioned though, Dillett still has a chest when he does a most muscular of front double bi... Priests seems to get burried underneat the mass of his arms and delts and just sticks out like a sore thumb.
No disrespect to Lee he's got an amazing body and all that.
-

Thats got to be perspective blowing Lees arm out like that. Lol. His arm looks bigger than Titus's whole body.
Dillet's got the freakiest veins though.
Big Lee fan.
;D

Oh NO...that pic is unaltered. :P

NOBODY has 24" arms. That's two feet in circumference. Gunter's arms were recently measured at 22", and they look bigger that Dillett's.

GREG VALENTINO DOES. ;D

I've met Lee Priest it was about 4 weeks ago and we measured his arms 2 days after the Australian pro show they measured 21+ inches and he said his arms have got the 25 inches ???
-

LEE'S arms are the best in bodybuilding.
-
First off, Gtbro1 - that shot of Priest and Titus has been photoshopped.
There is no way that Titus is that tall. ;D
Second, yes there are pros with 24 inch arms.
I site Kovacs (definately) and quite possibly Vic Richards. Have seen both of them in seminars and talked with them up close.
Kovacs arms were immense - and one of my old training partners had 22+ inch arms so before you say I don't know what 22 inches look like guess again. I almost got mine to 20 as well and Kovacs and I are similar in height and I've seen plenty of top bb's over the years so I have a fair idea of relative size.
Kovacs when I saw him - and I asked him to flex his arms etc (which he did) had the biggest arms I have ever seen in person. Can't speak for any other bodybuilders but if anyone had/has 24+ arms then Kovacs did or does.
Thirdly, Priest has got some mighty impressive arms.
But then looking at that pic of Dillett's bicep - it looks like the size of his friggin head. Amazing. Wish I had seen Dillett in person - a true freak of nature (or un-nature if you prefer).

Now there's a credible pic... ::)

in terms of contest time circumference, I would not be surprised if Ronnie in 2003 at 287 pounds set a record:

must be close to a record for contest shape arm size. unreal. :o :o :o
-
Lee's arms are the best in the business, period.
-
Nah, they're too stubby. One of the best pairs of arms, ya.
3 of Dillet's veins are almost the size of one of Priest's arms. :o
Vince's arms are better, period. In part because he's taller. I'm not talking about size.
-
if one cant achieve big arms at 5'3 then there is something wrong, he should look big he so short and small,
They're the same size as most 5'10 pro BB's
-
You don't under how good Lee's arms are until you see them in real life

I've seen them.

True of all these guys; all look much diferent in person.
-
Dillett's arms were 23.5 inches
-
Lee's arms are waaay overrated. He's like what? 5'2''? His arms are 20 inches max sans peak. You can't great arms with no peak and 20 inch guns.
-
Overrated in terms of measuring tape size. Great arms, but not better than some others.
-

Dude hes 5'4ft massive freaky forearms and when I met him it was 2 days after a comp and they was 21inch or maybe abit bigger gotta give him his props he works hard and I believe hes one of the greats.

wait a minute. A few days ago you were saying that Ronnie's biceps "look atrophied".
Now you are saying that Lee's arms aren't great given the fact that they are 20" and have good shape and peak.
Can you see okay?
-
To say Lee doesn't have awesome arms is to call yourself a tool. End of discussion.
-
You guys are ignoring the facts. Yes I said Ronnie's biceps look atrophied. See:
(http://www.ronniecoleman.net/2002olympia7.jpg)
To be counted as one of the greatest in terms of arms - you must have a combination of size and shape. Ronnie is lacking shape. His arms are overrated. In fact, they look plain weird. Priest lacks both size and shape in his arms. 20 inches is being generous - because we know these guys exaggerate. No peak is another fault. These guys are great - they just aren't the greatest.
Greatest arms I would say goes to Jay Cutler with a perfect balance of size and peaks.
PS - I'm most impressed with you Hulkster. You didn't bash Cutler when he posted here. Or did you?
-
Ronnie's arms looked like that ONCE. Most of the time they look like this:
(http://www.bodybuildingpro.com/1999britishgrandprix/47.jpg)
(http://www.bodybuildingpro.com/1999britishgrandprix/49.jpg)
personally, I don't think I have ever seen better biceps when viewed head on than the pre-gut Ronnie at his best.
in 2003 his arms looked like the shot I posted above. Huge, and amazing. Certainly not overrated.
Dorian was overrated. Ronnie's arms are not.
And no, I did not bash Jay.

if Ronnie's arms are overrated, then what is your opinion of Kevin's arms? Dog shit?
-
(http://www.bodybuildingpro.com/1999britishgrandprix/47.jpg)
lacking in shape? ::)
Are you are not ND posting under a pseudonym??
-
It's not the best picture cause I had to take a picture of a page in MD, but it does drive the point home about Lee's guns..
-
(http://www.ronniecoleman.net/6xo16.jpg)
Cutler is 2" or more shorter than Coleman and his biceps look much bigger. Look at that left bicep compared to Coleman.

Jay Cutler better than those guys? ??? If Jay's arms were in their league he might've won once in a while actually.
Some of Jay's shortcomings are a lack of arm defo & separation, plus he doesn't have the same volume. Less noticable on that double bi and more obvious when his arms are by his sides. With his arms down it's obvious he doesn't Ron's detail, separation or size.
Ron is one of the all-time greats when it comes to arms.

All bodybuilders look impressive alone. ::)

ummm... ronnie's arms blow most other pro's arms off the stage when they are standing side by side:

(http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=50084.0;id=51597;image)
ronnie's biceps have something that only a select few (and in fact only one other Mr. Olympia) have: a defined split (samir had this too).
saying his biceps are "atrophied" and that his arms are "overrated" might be even dumber than ND's infamous "dorian has better overall arms than Ronnie" comment.
You think that THESE arms are overrated?:

Unbelievable ::).
ps - Markus has bigger biceps than just about anyone, but his are certainly not the best. You have to consider other qualities other than size.
-
I think in the picture I posted - with good lighting (not the dark lighting in your pics) showing both men on the same stage facing straight ahead - well....Cutler's biceps are just bigger and fuller AND peaked. Ronnie's have no fullness - giving them their "atrophied" appearance. Coleman has odd muscle shapes all around - not just biceps - Calves and abs too. He's massive......but he's odd lol. Not my choice for the number 1 guy.
-
To use the term atrophied you just have a thing for Jay. Ron's bis are ridiculous. Jay's bis are fuller, not bigger. Looking at bis & tris, the overall arm, Ron's are just much bigger and more detailed.
-

I just proved how Jay's biceps are superior. ::)
-
You just proved you're biased. Jay's bis are fuller, not bigger. To me a better peak wins if all else is equal. Ron's bis & tris together it's no contest.
With his arms down, Jay doesn't have enough size or detail..arms looking almost Yatesian. :-\
-
(http://www.ronniecoleman.net/6xo16.jpg)
No.....It's a fact that Jay's biceps are bigger. You are running away from the contest pics. Jay's bicep is almost twice as big.
-
In terms of height/measurement, they're no bigger. Add in the lack of detail and overall lack of volume and it's one of the reasons he's never won.
-
Arms are not what determines who wins a bodybuilding contest. ::)
-
I just proved how Jay's biceps are superior. ::)
where is the split in jay's bi's? Where is the detail?
Not to bash Jay, but I would bet that even HE would be the first to tell you that Ronnie has better biceps.
If you think Jay has better biceps than Ronnie, then you are very rare, indeed. Sorry, but many, many people think that Ronnie just might have the best biceps EVER, especially in his "pre-gut" days:
(http://digilander.libero.it/mrolympia2/rc37.jpg)
Might I ask what you think of Dorian's biceps?
Better than Arnold's perhaps?
Better than Robby robinsons?
Jays biceps are fuller. not better.
there is a big difference.
-
Dorian's biceps were his only weakness.
Full biceps with a peak are better than small biceps with an extreme peak(Coleman).
Best ever would be Arnold.

This is utter gutter trash

Dorian's ugly quads and his gut were also weaknesses. Ronnie's biceps are better than Jay's if you consider detail and peak. Obviously Markus has even bigger biceps. ::)
-
wow ronnies arms r sick huge.ur right hulkster colemans arms were the only body part for wich he was known for before he became mr olympia.so colemans arms in 2003 i guess truly did set a record along with his legs
-
Ronnie has one of the best pair of biceps in history, thats no question about it.
Thats some guys who can have maybe best biceps, or triceps than Lee for instance...But i never seen someone that had ALL of this at the same time...
From the shoulder to his wrist, imo he has THE best arms in the history of bodybuilding...
And lets not even enter on the forearm subject...hehe
Now if you guys are talking about Biceps alone, than yes, there a lot of guys who can be considered better (i myself would put Arnold in front of him)
-
Arms are not what determines who wins a bodybuilding contest.
Bizarre comment. Everything contributes, arms are key.
Dorian's biceps were his only weakness.
You've just discredited yourself suggests the mediocre arms were his only weakness. He always had a lack of taper as well as several areas that were just ok.
Full biceps with a peak are better than small biceps with an extreme peak(Coleman).
Best ever would be Arnold.
Arnold's bis are closer to Ron's peaks than the fullness that Jay has. You're contradicting yourself.
-
Arnold's are most impressive
Robby Robinson had the best shape and overall look
Al Beckels were the sickest looking

Ron's not far from the last two.
