How big were Shawn Ray's arms?

[illuminati]

16" tops

Still Bigger Than Bianca Bhankys

[Humble Narcissist]

18in, according to my Tailor.
I never cared for measuring since I went soley by the mirror.
S. Ray

I do not believe that he didn't measure his arms.

[pamith]

I always assumed Shawn had 20'' arms, they look insanely big to me, at least as big as Dorian's arms

[pamith]

Yo, the sport is all Illusion.
Do the math.
I competed at basically 210lbs my Off season weight went up to 235lbs
Sometimes they may hve pushed 20in but who cares, that had to be when I was off season, heavy for me, smooth, fat and carrying excess water.
Now fast forward 12 weeks, I lose basically 20-25lbs, temporarily.
Water, Fat, size it all comes off. Your left with detail, proportion and balance all of which when combined with a Pump, Oil, Tanning and the proper Lighting can make for an incredible Illusion of MASS!
At the end of the day, I never cared, the judges want to see the finished product.
We are scored on Appearance not Measurements so I never wasted my time then and now I wont waste my time here.
If you dont know, now you KNOW!
Peace,
S. Ray

Shawn tbh your arms looked as big as Dorian's, yes bodybuilding is an illusion, tbh you were possibly the best bodybuilder ever, but that's debatable

[falco]

His arms were big enough to be talked about decades after his competitive days.

[dj181]

his contest ready non-pumped arm was probably a tad under 19 inches

check this out...

I’ve personally measured the arms of the hulking individuals listed below. All of them had placed in the top eight of a recent show, and the measurements were taken about ten days after the show, presumably when they were at their biggest from all of the post-competition carbs ingested.

BODYBUILDER A
Height: 6’0"
Weight: 286 pounds
Cold arm measurement: 20.62"
BODYBUILDER B
Height: 5’3"
Weight: 228 pounds
Cold arm measurement: 20.25"
BODYBUILDER C
Height: 5’7"
Weight: 214 pounds
Cold arm measurement: 19.62"
BODYBUILDER D
Height: 5’11"
Weight: 258 pounds
Cold arm measurement: 18.9"
If I published pictures of these bodybuilders, you’d see that Bodybuilders A and D were famous for their leg development, while Bodybuilders B and C sported larger arms in relation to their lower bodies, which were still quite well-developed by any standard.

bb B is lee priest and his arm was 20.25 inches 10 days post contest

bb A might be dillet and bb D is milos sarcev i'd say

Dillet was over 6 ft. I stood beside him. He was atleast 6 '1

[robcguns]

Dillet was over 6 ft. I stood beside him. He was atleast 6 '1

And dillet was known for his arms and it says that one is more known for legs.

d is def milos and b is def lee p

[wes]

Here`s a hot tip right off the presses......THEY DON`T MEASURE YOUR ARMS ON STAGE.

The guy  was incredible,one of the best that ever lived..............PERIO D.

[robcguns]

so who do you think it was? gunther?

d is def milos and b is def lee p

Yeah it def could be Gunter, not to many guys it could be.

An 18" arm is gigantic if it's muscle at his weight of 210lbs.  Far too many fat guys say they have a 20" arm when it's a fat blob. MY grandma had 20" arms too when she was 80. 

[Hulkster]

there is a correalation between bodyweight and arm size 99 percent of the time, that's why i always laugh when a 220lb. pro claims 22 inch arms, hahahaha, ok.

If I recall Eddie Robinson's arms were measured at 20.5 inches at 220 pounds and his arms looked massive on his frame

an arm measurement only counts when you are 4-6% bodyfat

get to 4-6% then tell me what your arms measures

Underrated bodybuilder and really nice guy.

Image how big Flex Wheeler arms would be if he got to 6%, given he claimed 0% bodyfat.

Lee Priest was true when he claimed he had the same arm measurement as the taller guys.

[Kwon]

His arms were big enough to be talked about decades after his competitive days.

Even in 2023!

A legit 20 inch lean arm is huge

In general arms really start looking big at 17 inches especially if your waist is under 32 inches

20 inch arms with a 40+ inch waist? Thanks but no thanks

[Wiggs]

Those are the best 18 inch arms in the history of arms.

Regardless of what they measured Shawn's arm's were very impressive
and looked big.
