I'm embarassed to say I actually used to believe this.....my only excuse is I was young and thought I was smarter than I am

I dont need to work my legs because the extra weight I put on from getting big arms and chest, will make me heavier and so my legs will grow form carrying an inceased body weight!!!!!!!!!!

"I would never wanna be that big." (Uh huh)

People mention this all the time, and if you really think about it theres nothing wrong, I also don't want to get freaky huge, Its not like I have to worry about it, but I'm just saying if I had the choice to instantly be I wouldn't choose it.

Theres a difference in simply stating you wouldn't want to be that big.

And actually thinking your going to get there or get there by accident bwahaha

I woudln't want to be ethopien skinny, I doulbt I could get that way before I caved in and started eating, still the fact is still If I had the choice (which I don't) I wouldn't want it.

Its not like the I wouldn't want a million dollars thing, BS you don't.

I mean I also wouldn't want to be 7ft (I'm 6"3) I'm not saying it because I can't and I'm making an excuse, I'm saying it because I'm tall enough its not like basketballs my dig.

So don't chastise people because they don't want to be that big, only if there refraining from doing something simply because they think they will end up that big.

That is not a myth. It is very well documented fact. Guys with larger bones tend to have larger muscles. Wrist size is an easy method to determine your bone size.

Ofcourse addimg 10 inches to wrist size is just an approximation (I forgot the exact formula). But it is true for MOST PEOPLE! Unless you are geneticly gifted (in arm department) or use steroids, your wrist size determins your muscle size.

PERIOD! All Flex Wheelers can disregard this fact, for the rest of us there is badminton.... : :
