Shoulder Width Poll

[GettinSwole]

Just trying to get a handle on what a good total body width is. I measured from shoulder to shoulder with my arms at my sizes right from where the shoulder starts to slope down on each side.

i really hope your inches are a joke because i am 22"... so the guys especially on here are gonna be a whole hell of a lot bigger!!!

I mean at the edge of the bone, i.e. skeletal size, not muscle size. And supergirl I am not joking. You must be one hell of a woman bc most of my friends many of whom are on the football team at a large D-1 school are in the 20"-24" range.

well i don't know how you are measuring yourselves and coming up with only 20-24" trying to measure skeletal size without bringing in muscle is hard because you have a ball and socket joint at your shoulder and the muscle surrounds it, so you have to measure in muscle and if you measure from shoulder (side lateral) to shoulder... i get 22"... So i remeasured the way you did, where it begins to slope and i get 18". But still i would assume that a football player would be even bigger than that...
Don't want you thinking i am a monster because that is far from the truth lol

What your asking for is hard to get accurate answers for. You should just do a poll on measuring around the whole shoulders.
