Somebody told me once that during the 1993 Mr. O commentary,it was stated  by Jim Quinn,that Flex Wheeler's body fat had been measured at 0.0%,the lowest ever recorded at Gold's Gym.

One inch is 2.54 centimeters.

  I am sorry. She actually measured it at 20.5". I was confusing that with Haney, who had his arms measured for the 1988 Olympia at 47 centimeters right before he went onstage.

I gots  12 inch arms.  They be all natchal, too.   ;D

GFG (good fucking grief), Dorian was a big dude and his arms were more than up to snuff.  I think Reg Park said the largest his arms ever measured were 18.5" at a body weight of 250 pounds.  I could be wrong on that because its from memory and I suffer from memmoroids.   Later, kids.  ;)

On this day I'm guessing his left arm taped 21". This day only.

Dorian was always totally uninterested in measurements, lifts in and of themselves. He was often asked "how much do you bench?" and his answer never changed: "It doesn't matter".  He would have only been concerned with how his arms looked, not what the tape said, and, until the injuries, they were perfectly respectable. Not his strongest part but decent enough.

come one,,, how could his arm be 18, his forams are bigger than that... at his hight theres no way they were that small, they didnt have the best genetic shape, but they werent absolutly tiny... no one olympia stage at 5'10" has arms under 20".... please dont forget that he had some of the meatiest triceps out there

 The story of Dorian Yates.

 He rose up in the bodybuilding world and looked great. All the supplement companies sponsored him and he became bodybuilding's golden boy.

 Then he tore up his arm and started looking like shit. But there was already a LOT of money and publicity riding on him, so they kept him going. Kept him looking as best as he could, kept on giving him trophies, kept the money flowing, even though his arms looked like they'd been in a meat grinder.

 All money. Follow the money.

on stage yes!,, 18.75 his bigger arm

but look at the condition he was in ...that condition take other bodybuildr with 21 inch arms and wipe floor with them.... all give and take my friend especialy when you have average genetic to begin with

at 300lb he was over 19 inch but no one care when you are bloof ball 300lb ,,we only care when prep or on stage,,that what counts,, and then he was 18.75 icnches

how come to be 19 inches at +300 pounds and 18.75 inches at 260 pound??.. no logic here..

He had no shape, conditioning or size.  When it comes to Dorian, it's best to not even bring up his arms

I have not measured them but they don't look any bigger than 19" at his best (93).

After the 93 Mr. Olympia, he didn't have what I call "arms" in bodybuilding.

20-20,5 inch at 300lb ,,competition they were 18.75 with pump and little escilene 19-19.25,,most of the weight on bodybuild past 230lb go to gut...and thats for 5'10 fellas...just imagine the little fellas...

so dorian while seeing 300lb offseason was also havign it mainly in gut and torse and legs,,his arms were his weakest respond to hormones and ingeneral his weakest part,,bicep that is,,tricep were good

dorian never seen the number 20 inches on stage ever,,if he was same condition of the other competitors he would probabaly pull on stage 19.75-20 inches but he was more grainy hardr and drier ,,he was around 19 inches on stage

Gh was about 1880, Sandow was a big user he used to eat Elephant cadaver brains.

Slin was a bit later circa about 1910.

I would say around 20 inches.

His tri's weren't anything special, but he knew how to pose to cover his weaknesses. He was a very good poser.

A 16 inch arm that is shaped, conditioned and seperated is MUCH MORE IMPRESSIVE than a bloofy 20 inch arm FACT
