i'm just wondering how many of you guys, especially tall bro's,have small wrists and big arms. i remember reading a post saying naturally you could only get your arms 10" bigger than your wrists, but what if AAS is thrown in the mix??

Thats bullshit. I have some huge wrists, nearly 8 inches around and that would mean only 18 in ch arms. Ronnie coleman probably has aroun 7 inch wrists. So he beat the figure by a long shot.

All of a sudden everybody is a natural with only 6 or 7 inch wrist and having 18+ inch arms. Yeah sure, and bodyfat is 6 % i presume.
Hopefully when someone is posting his wrist, arms, he will include his EXACT bodyfat. AND as E2 once stated, anything above 10 % does NOT count. And please do not do yourself a favor by saying " i have only 6 or 7 %".
So get ripped and THEN post your figurs.

By the way i did the posting of that article, but as usual it was deleted.

Actually, there was a soviet study that found the best predictors of success at bodybuilding (and related disciplines) were forearm and calf size. Just a fun fact. I have small wrists and relatively small arms, 6'0 ex-ectomorph. Peace!

What does bodyfat have to do with wrist size?

The moral?

It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle, when the sun comes up - you had better be running.
