Charles Poliquin poking fun of Arnold's arm measurement!
« on: February 04, 2007, 08:47:02 PM »
"Anyhow, the Olympian who keeps bragging about his arms having been over 22 inches (in fact, I think that he may have won an Olympia, or maybe two, or seven) is, in fact, pissing mighty rivers down your leg and insisting that the mother of all rain storms is upon you. At 6'1" tall, this Olympian would have had to weigh about 308 pounds for his arms to be even close to 22 inches around. However, his competition weight was roughly 235 pounds. Of course, maybe his bodyfat was minus 15%..."

Who does this clown think he is to question Arnold's integrity?
just push some weight!

Who cares. They don't bring out a measuring tape onstage.

I measured Arnold's arm at 21 1/2 inches in October 68 at the original Golds Gym. He was weighing about 255 at the time. He is 6' 1 1/2". Measured him in Honolulu in Jan 69.

I doubt both of these claims, but as an offseason measurement I suppose it is somewhat believable.  I would put Arnold at 6'0.

dude, i have never known anyone so obsessed with height. did you get teased alot growing up or something over your height, whats the deal bro??

I'd say 6'1.5" like the dude above who actually measured him said.

Look at the 1980 Olympia pics, if he's just 6' then everyone else is like 5'4". I know musclemen are generally short, but 6'1" isn't even particularly tall in real life.

bodybuilders lie about everything else, so why is it a big shock that they would lie about their arm size and height?

right, Bodybuilders would tell  you they were already strong before they even picked up a weight, they would tell you they have no weaknesses, but they won't tell you that they're full of shit..haha go figure

Who does this clown think he is to question Arnold's integrity?

Arnold may be know to embellish some things, but that statement is just absurd!

I remember that. Before he and Franco got off a plane to meet up with Arthur Jones, they freaked out when they heard he had a measuring tape waiting for the athletes as soon as they got off the plane. Sergio Oliva was the ONLY one who's arms spoke of it's size.
