The greatest could have been, should have been. 

[240 is Back]

little known fact, the 14 inch arm belongs to getbig's very own 240 or bust, correct?

nah, that arm is more cut than mine.

[Naked4Jesus]

I cut this out of a flex or mf mag way back in the mid 80's and have kept it in a photo album for over 20 years for inspiration. I still like looking at the huge disparity between the two arms. Remember, this was printed back when 20" arms were pretty unusual and definitely something to brag about. The 20" arm looks kinda short to me but it looks about perfect to me in ratio of bicep to tricep to forearm.

The scan isn't the best but the picture got wrinkled over the past 20 years.

Enjoy

What's that?  GH15 vs Billy Guns?

[qiniz]

Same as yours.

hahahahaha

[qiniz]

this is what a 14,90 inch arms looks like

why do you do this to yourself?

[natural al]

hahahaha, the smaller arm is nowhere near 14, more like 11.

I actually doubt that one arm is an actual 20 incher in that kind of shape, I could be wrong.

i agree, realistically i'd say the bigger one is 18 and a half and the smaller one is 12.

arthur jones measured alot of the top pro's back in the 70's and hardly anyone had a legit 20 inch arm, I think the only one who was legit was sergio at his absolute biggest-the old pics of him posing outdoors at the nautilas complex.  Arnold was 19ish and Franco was 17ish...viator's arms actually looked bigger in the comparison pics but Arnolds had much better shape.

exactly, so what do you think of guys like Groink who claims that his arms measure 19.5?

he does look good but do you think his arms are as big as Arnold, Sergio or Casey Viator in their prime?

I've never seen a decent pic, don't know how tall he is, what he weighs or anything about him.  I can't even begin to guess.   I don't know how long he's been training etc. alot of arm size has to do with where your muscle inserts etc.  

In highschool I had people convinced I had 16 inch arms cause I'm short and stocky, I measured them when I was a junior and they were only 14 but I let everyone believe they were 16 cause they looked like they were bigger than they were.  Keep in mind that I had to hold my bodyweight at 140lbs for wrestling so I was pretty ripped thus adding to the illusion.

tell you what stud, put up a poll thtead and ask people if they think your arms are a half inch less than 20 inches and see what they say.

[Palpatine Q]

Actually they are a little over 19.25 right now because I've been dieting for three weeks.

How about this STUD....I'lll post a VIDEOTAPE of me measuring my arms if you post a video or pic of definitive, unimpeachable evidence that you ain't the fat fuck eating chips.

hahahahaha, sounds like i touched a nerve with "big" Groink, all i'm trying to do is get you back down to reality and tell the truth, the only way your arms are over 19 inches is if you have 8 inch concrete bones, you're the most delusional person on this site hands down.

Blocked again? Damn.

So take the bet if i'm so full of shit

Yesterday you said they weren't over 17

then you said our arms are the same exact size and youv'e said repeatedly that your arms are 17.5

now your saying they "aren't over 19"

Your estimate keeps going up.

seems to me you just don't want to accept my arms are that big.  Why i don't know, but wer'e talking about you after all.

no, i said that there is NO WAY IN HELL that your arms are 19 and i said i'll give you 17.5 and i stand by that statement, don't get so angry tiger you might drop one of those plasma screens and then you'll be out three hours pay going to get anothe rone, $33 bucks is a lot of money for you plus don't slap any of the skinny crackheads you work with because you're angry at me.

Blah blah blah   Take the bet

Speaking of jobs......it's funny that you didn't complain about the price of gas for a large work truck, kind of odd for someone who supposedly owns a construction company to not have anything other than a toyota Tundra.

i did complain about the price of gas, the thread is on the General topics board, and i never said i owned a CONSTRUCTION company, cars and trucks are bad investments dummy, they lose value from the second you drive them off the lot but i wouldn't expect a high school dropout like you to know that.
