Frankly, I’m just baffled as to how you can train for 8 years and not have arms over 16 inches. I’ve been training correctly and intensely for maybe 2 months and I’m at 16 inches. Put on 25lbs, too. Also, I’m 170 at about 12% bf. Casey Butts said my max potential is 171 at 8%. I have to laugh.
Pictures please? I guess in another 2 months you should be up to around 17, then 18 by Christmas and maybe 21 by next Summmer.
Another point to think about. Sumo wrestlers carry one heck of alot of muscle mass - many suggest it’s more than a pro bodybuilder. Can we now consider sumo wrestlers to be good bodybuilders Prof X? Prof X can you also post some pictures, since you’re the apparent ‘Daddy’ around here, I’d genuinely be interested to see who is talking and your profile is locked.
If you think Frank Zane was small, you might want to consider sharing that pot with us.
Correct - Frank Zane was not small and he had an incredible physique. If bodybuilding went back to that kind of ideal it would be a dream. However, Zane WASN’T NATURAL and he could ‘only’ get his arms to around 18 inches! I rest my god damn case - here’s one of the classic bodybuilders whose arms were 18 inches on roids. If he was a natural today and posted here saying my arms are only 16 inches Mr X would eat him for breakfast! Oh let me guess - the steroids didn’t help him build 18 inch guns and then get ripped and keep them - yeah right. Respect to the man for only light juicing.
Just for you, here’s a picture of me 2 years ago, natural, at somewhere between 255-260 lbs. My arms were a little over 18" then, now they are 20. I’m 18 years old in this photo, with 3 years training.
Do you think I’m fat in this picture? That’s obviously the only way I got them that large, was by carrying a bunch of fat on them.
Wait are those abs in the picture? Hm…
sigh
I’m not sure that post deserved a response.
Either way, clearly your results were impossible and I am sure this has to be photoshop.
It seems as if keeping my profile locked immediately points out some of the morons too lazy to even look around the forums before they comment.
Logic fail: If you don’t get down to 7% body fat, you must be a sumo wrestler.
Uh, yeah.[/quote]
haha well he wanted pictures 
Seriously though, I think it’s obvious I have better than average genetics for building muscle, but that doesn’t mean anything. I am no where near an elite level in that regard, so if someone like me can get that size in 3 years a huge amount of others can as well. Some will get their faster, and some slower but nearly anyone can accomplish that with some hard work and consistency.
