BIZZUMP.
Also, I realized I secretly care very much about arm size. I was going through a drawer of mine and found an old measuring tape. Slightly over 17.5 cold.
Maybe I should make a thread about this guys, asking if this is good for natty 20 year old???//////[/quote]
How do you train your arms bro? Do you do “direct” arm work?
The last meet I was at, one guy lifted more than everyone else, but he lost because he only had 17.5 inch arms. Everyone else’s arms were 17.51354862415 or larger.
On a serious note, 17.5 inch arms are a great size if you are never going to step on a BB stage. I have found that women understand arm size just about as much as they understand powerlifting totals.
I have 17 inch arms. I have been told by at least two girls that Brad Pitt’s arms, when he was in Fight Club, were bigger than mine. There is no way in hell that he was sportin a 17+ inch arm on a 145 lb frame.[/quote]
This is hilarious. Brad Pitt’s arms are roughly the circumference of my shaft when it’s limp. I would be pissed if some girl said that to me.[/quote]
Don’t get me wrong, I have NEVER been anything special with respect to arm size or weight lifted, and I was probably close to 18.2373647984729346987% bodyfat at the time, but I was pretty fired up that day haha.
I had to unfriend this one girl on my facebook. She had a nice ass, and a few veins running across her bicep. SHE THOUGHT SHE WAS GOING TO WIN THE ARNOLD NEXT YEAR AND BE SPONSORED AS A BOOTH GIRL.
I mean picture, after picture, after picture, after picture, and gym quote, after gym quote. So many guys were making comments on her posts like “oooooh you so fiiiinnnee” and it kept feeding her. So, she kept putting up more pictures, and more gym quotes.
THEN…she started offering training tips to everyone. She even went as far as to tell me that she thought that powerlifters trained inappropriately for strength because you often do two compound lifts in the same workout. Then she went on to tell me how I could better train my total.
That girl on my facebook didn’t even belong on stage at a local show, and she sure as hell never did any powerlifting. Let me tell you, I stood next to the girl who won the Arnold figure competition last year. That girl was like a walking statue. [/quote]

Trivie, I hate to break it to you, but it’s not just fitness gals that post a ton of selfies and inspirational quotes on social media.
