JERSEY BOY'S POST AS WELL AS IRON GAME'S REPLIES GOT ME TO THINK....DO YOU HAVE A BIG BONE STRUCTURE? IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS, IS WHEN YOU HAVE SLIGHTLY BIGGER BONES AND SO IN TURN YOU LOOK SMALLER THAN GUYS WITH SMALLER BONES. A GOOD INDICATOR IS YOUR WRIST MEASUREMENT, A.K.A. SMALL WRISTS=SMALLER BONE STRUCTURE AND VICE-VERSA...I FUCKIN HATE THAT SINCE I TEND TO HAVE SLIGHTLY BIGGER BONES...SO EVEN IF I DO WEIGHT 222 at 5'10, I LOOK LIKE IF I WEIGHED 208 or 210...SUXS, BUT O WELL, LOOKS LIKE I WILL HAVE TO GET TO 235 TO LOOK 222 ------------------ I am Conan, the Ironbarbarian back from the deep dark hell!    | ||

Have you ever seen a skeleton? They are all about the same size per height. I think "big boned" is just what parents tell their fat kids. The rest is muscle genetics. | ||

Thats crazy! Your talking about plastic store bought skeletons? People come in a shapes and sizes. You are right about using it for an excuse. I like to ask those parents 'Why do your kids bonz giggle when they walk'. | ||

I have a fairly small bone structure... which I'm beginning to enjoy VERY much. I always get stares in the gym, b/c I'm such a small guy, but incredibly strong. I can easily bench twice my weight, dead and squat well over triple. I figure, if I can ever get to 170 with this tiny bone structure, I'll be a monster BTW, i can circle my pinkie and thumb around my wrist and they touch... should give you an idea of how small my bone structure is. | ||

I'm not sure how accurate the wrist method for calculating bone structure is. When I first started working out I could overlap my fingers on my wrist. Now, after years of heavy dead's and moving iron, they wont touch by 1/4". | ||

I have the bone structure of a twelve year old girl. My wrists are about six inches, and I only wear an 8 1/2 shoe. At a height of 5'6", and 170-175LBS, I definately don't look "small". Not huge by any means, but I get told all the time that I'm looking kinda big for my size. Bone structure plays a huge roll in your appearance. | ||

smaller bone structure definetly makes you look bigger however there is also an important factor is your muscle structure and insertions also how much skeletal muscle you have and many other factors . looking at Paul Dillet and Flex these guys have very small wrists and also smaller feet compared to a sonbaty who measures about a 9 in wrist . And still they look more impressive then he does | ||

quote: Oh MY God those wrists must be huge!!!! Mine are like 6.5 inches and I'm 5'11". My ankles and knees are pretty thin too. It makes my arms and calves. , which have good development genetically, look bigger. My calves especially; they are strong and pretty big for my frame. Now, if I could only get the chest going! | ||

Just wrap your fingers around your wrist. Use your second finger and thumb. If your fingers overlap you have a small bone structure. If they touch/very slightly overlap, it's medium. If you can BARELY touch, or can't touch at all, it's large. That's the poor man's way of figuring out your bone size. Mine overlaps pretty good. My thumb will totally cover the fingernail on my second finger, it overlaps that much. But my arms are 18 inches. So it adds a good size appearance because my frame is so small. |
