Ive been lifting for about a year and a half now and my bicepts are close to 17 inches. I was just wondering if thats a good size for a year and a half of lifting, and what size bi's are considered big...I know 22 inch bi's are considered big, but thats not what I mean. I mean, starting from what size? I hope I made myself clear, i know its a weird question..hehe. Thanks     | ||

there are a lot of big faukers with smaller arms than 17in who have trained forever. Plus a lean 22in arm is hard to find. I think you should be more than happy(depending on bf) | ||

How old are you, what is you BF%, how tall are you, and how much do you weigh? We need to know this to give you any idea. a 14 year old who weighs 140lbs and is 5'5" with reasonable bodyfat 17" arms is incredible. Adversely, a 25year old make who weighs 240lbs and is 6'4" with 30% bodyfay 17" arms is terrible. ------------------ | ||

I'm 22 6'2" weigh 220 and bf% around 14 or so. I have 18 1/2 inch arms but they don't look all that big to me. I think it is because I am somewhat tall. I have trained for two years and started out weighing 160. I am half-way through my first cycle ever, a light one, and have gained 10lbs. and half an inch on my arms. So most of it is natural.

Dieanabol, my god man, almost 20 % of bodyfat ? You should drop 8 % but your arm size will go down. ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short | ||

Jeff, last time I measure my bodyfat i was at 14%, which was couple months ago. Since then Ive put on some weight, and some bodyfat, but im probably around 16 or 17%. I dont know exactly what I am, so Ill say below 20% | ||

At thanksgiving dinner at moms she told me I need to lose I was to big again I ask her were do I need to lose expecting her to say all over but mom said your arms everyone started laughing and she also asked did you get you some medicine for that swelling and my sister and here juiced up boyfriend started busting out laughing and after taking off a month and only 193 shes still not pleased I curious what shes going to say when I hit 215 hmm thats going to be interesting I had so many sides on this cycle that I had to take off a month to to recover and lost alot of size trained my seat off just to take off a month after sounds strange huh lol well I"LL BE BACK | ||

I guess I'm lucky, me dad has never lifted and his arms are like 16 1/2 at 5'10'' 165lbs...All the family has decent genetics. I'm 5'11'' 223lbs and have 18 inches with a pump so i would guess 17 1/2 to 17 3/4 cold...im at about 9-10 percent bady fat....Levi | ||

I am a little under 5'8" and weight about 170lbs, My arms are only 16.5" but that is at 6% bodyfat, they look pretty sweet. You should drop your bodyfat down, a big blubbery arm doesn't look as good as a defined arm. Go more for looks not inches, a bodybuilding judge doesn't give a rats ass what you can curl or how big your biceps are, symmetry and definition win it everytime | ||

Just remember a ripped arm looks 1000X's better than a flabby larger arm... period. Plus the lower body fat, the more cut you become the larger you seem to people. Unless youre walking around with a measuring tape my friend... i dont think i would worry about it. the most important thing to keep in mind is the image looking back at you in the mirror! just my .02 ------------------ | ||

Just don't forget...it is whatever makes you happy. I like being thick and strong. I am 6'2" tall but have an extremely long wingspan. My arms don't look all that big, but are 19"+. I like being thick and strong and not concerned about being lean. I am about 15%bf and do not want to be lower. Just look like what you want to look like. B True | ||

Mine right now are 18 1/2 inches. When pumped, they measure 19 1/2, so i wish they would fucking stay that way! IT MAKES ME SICK! 5'10", 208 (yeah, i gained 3 pounds!), about 8% bodyfat. My goal is to have 19 1/2" arms by the end of the summer, after my contests are over, and i start another bulking cycle. Getting married in August, so that might be a problem. What do you do when you get fitted for your tux? Wait till the month before cause you dont know how much you are going to grow? ???? ------------------ | ||

alot of these numbers seem pretty big. If youre natural a 17 inch arm is actually quite impressive,if lean. For us juice monkeys I would jsut say a lean,tight 16 inch arm still looks more dominant than a fat 19 inch arm. Its all perspective. | ||
