No. That’s what you get for being lanky.
I’m much shorter than you and in my opinion, my arms didn’t begin to look filled out until they hit 18". I would imagine that arms about that big are what most people would consider really big arms. I don’t think everyone has the genetics to get there though…which is why those who try to “gain slowly” make me laugh. Their chances are low to begin with and they make it even harder on themselves.
Prob a little more like Arnold’s.

I don’t have much doubt I’ll be able to hit 18s, however if I’m trying to look really big it looks like I’ll have to shoot for 20+. I think bauer97 had 20s and he’s just about my height so that kind of puts it in perspective.
I’m tempted to add 50 pounds in 4 months and see if that takes me where I need to go.

For someone your height growing at the rate you are, that may not be such a bad idea.
My little 14 inch gun as a reference point.

You know I kind of only said that half facetiously simply because I’ve gained almost 40 pounds since March 1st, but a good portion of that was muscle memory.
My next goal was 270 pounds and I was going to reassess from there, but with how tall I am I’m starting to think I’m not going to look how I want until I hit 300+. It’s depressing knowing I’ll have to buy all new clothes…again.

Just get women with small hands to hold your arms and take the pictures up close.

Do it, Lanky! Seriously… you have the potential and then some!
Load up with APT sleeves and wrist wraps and then embark on some Cluster training ala Fattyfat, or maybe try something akin to modok’s system… Eat a ton, get as strong as you can as fast as you can for maybe 3 months (joints/tendons) or so and then reevaluate…
Dunno… You’re still young. As long as you have exercise technique down well enough to avoid injury and all that… Could work.

They used to be around 18, but I think a good bit of that was fat.
I have a little less than 1 fucking month to get my arms to grow a little less than a quarter inch as my arm is so close to 18 inches, then I can say I put an inch on my arm in a year. Have to bust my ass tomorrow with some triceps.

Another shot at posting my 14 inch gunzz.

You know what this feels like? Like I’m drunk at the bar and all my friends are trying to convince me to talk to the homely fat chick in the corner… lol.

Looking lean, are you close to the finish line with your diet? I am reading Jamie Hale’s book (Knowledge and Nonsense) upon your recommendation.

Yah my arm size has platued for a while now, quite annoying hah. I had them at right around 19.5 inches when I was 280, then I cut for spring break and I’ve been stuck at a little over 19 ever since 
Get it broski!

That’s an amazing peak bwhitwell. Nice horseshoe as well. Your many years of hard work paid off well.

Thanks. It is a gift and a curse. My arms were ahead of my torso from the start with very little direct work. Being arm dominant makes it difficult to stimulate my chest and back
