based on the pics id say that if The Fridge is 5-8...

then Health is 5-6 TOPS,

Branch 'one foot int eh grave' Warren is 5-6 at best,

and Dex is 5-5.

and Franco must have been 5-2 .

FIVE FUCKING TWO

no wonder their arms are so impressive...its much easier to fill out your frame if your muscle bellies are designed around an arm that is only 18 inches long from shoulder to finger tip

I have a measuring tape with me because I was going to post a video showing that my height is between 5'8-5'9 depending on the time of day and around 5'10 in my sneakers which would confirm or deny the heights of the pros. I would say that a few of them looked taller than they claim for sure [Dennis James and Paco Bautista] but when I saw them they were walking and that is not a good gauge of height.

i too am obsessive about height (probably due to my own borderline height status) and based on my advanced, honed abilities to judge height, id say that the majority of these guys are considerably shorter than what they are 'listed' at, borderline midgets.

I know exactly how you feel!! If I could keep my morning height I think I would not have this complex. I'm known to wake up some mornings at 5'9.2".

More like 5'8.2" after squats.

its true matt c. in the mornings i would measure exactly 5-9 then by evening it would be closer to 5-8 and 1/4th. squats and lifting off the floor would affect it and have me paranoid after i did them.

so does that mean its believable that a gym goer who might dabble in the odd "agent" , but is 6' to 6'2 or so, not ripped to the bone, can achieve 20" arms?...

ive made that claim on numerous occasions and been called every name under the sun. 1 arm bang on 20", the other 19.5". at 260 and 6'1".

here we have a 5'8" steroid and insulin sponge who is weighing 280+ ripped to the bone with 22" arms..

My old man had 17 and a half inch biceps at around 5'11 190lb and is a lifetime natty and started out ecto, so small bones.

His diet and training were complete garbage too. He used to train the same muscle group more a less everyday lol.

Should be attainable at that height, decent genetics, carrying weight and on gear.

Well this is a bbing site. Some people think somehow height isn't part of human physique. It's why I'm boycotting the olympia. I'm a strong believer that there should be a tall catergorie for legit 6+ people. It's make it a more interesting event.

I mean it's pretty said I'd shit my pants to meet, batista from the wwe, yet turned down a chnace to see gutler(offseason).

Lol well who else would put themselves on that much drugs. Most people with healthy self esteem, would become fitness models or something. I mean if someone told me I'd have to be on more drugs than are in existance, so a bunch of fat fuck once a year could ogle my goods, I'd end myself.
