measurements

[SAGAT]

i'm planning to post my measurements today,to see how much i've grown since last time i measured (sort of like a before/after thing) so i can get some feedback. but first can someone give me an accurate answer to the following question: how many centimeters go in an inch? (since i come from a country where they use the metric system)

 

[DrBones]

2.2 centemeters per inch if I can remember correctly..
but on a ruler there is 30 centemters and 12 inches... 30/12=2.5 centemeters per inch...
So that is probably more accurate
Thanks
Ryan

thnx for the quick answer, 'preciate it. i'll go for the 2.5 centimeters then, i'll measure in about half an hour, i'm psyched! (hope it doesn't turn out to be a disappointment lol)

just measure in centimeters, its more accurate.

Or go somewhere like here and type in your centimeters and get inches.

some notes to go with that...19 years old, been at it for 6 years. i used to be the kind of guy that wanted to stay lean all year round (which, at about 6% i think i've done pretty well), but only until recently i've realised i want MASS. so i've begun eating, (reason my weight is low today is because i've been eating less lately cause of personal problems, but anyway). i guess that losing weight and increasing in measurements is a good thing, the inches that i've gained are all just muscle (at least that's how it looks and feels). now i've never followed a strict diet (very bad i know), simply because i did not know HOW. so almost everything i've gained is just from training.
also; i'm natural, never touched the sauce, never will. not even a supp or creatine or anything like that. to each his own but it's just not for me. thinking about creatine though, but i'm gonna wait with that till i get my diet in order. for anyone thinking: what's up with leg measurements? well....i havent been able to train them for more than half a year due to an operation, so that would not be fair IMO. well people, long read but, any feedback? good gains/bad gains? considering everything i said?

Your left forearm needs to come up a bit, might be time to switch up.
