Nah, I’m the dumb one lol. I figured you never saw me post before and thought I was serious. I failed big time on that one.

It okay, just the other day I thought someone was saying it was easier to look like a BB than Brad Pitt…
This being the internet, you just never know sometimes.

I kinda consider 17 a milestone on the way to big arms - it at least, to me, means you workout consistently with some effort behind it.
i think it’s relative to your joint size and overall weight. if you weigh 280lbs w/ 17inch arms well…
as i mentioned i have peashooters, yet i’m complimented on my arm size quite a bit 16.5 inches on a lean frame w/ 6.25 wrists looks different then on a heavy boned 230lbs. Muscle maturity also plays into this unless you are phil heath, he’s likely pushing 23in arms. The point is arms which have been handling iron for decades will look different then arms who’ve been training a few months.
i’ve been training for three years which means i’m still a humble baby in the iron world.

I respect you for them, man. And you have better shape than alot too. I think your arms look good. 17" is big in real life. Just not on these forums.
I think for somebody to see the second picture you posted and say they don’t consider your arms big are just being a little bit picky.
You aren’t pro BB size… but nor are the ones saying they don’t consider your arms big. Maybe that makes them have small arms too.
I think Holymac has more room to speak than Mr.Bitch tits though

nonono. lol you look good man. hell, you’re in better condition than i am! i’m not trying to discredit you at all. 17in arms (esp at your bf lvl) are nothing to scoff at.
that being said, i would be willing to bet you won’t see much more growth in that area unless you do DIRECT arm work.

dude, how fucking lame are you where you have to go into other people profiles and put their pics in a forum?
short hoss is right. if you want big arms, you need to do direct arm work. there’s really no way around it.
he also looks like he lifts. which can’t be said for 75% of the members on this site.
i’m also going to assume you can tell he lifts even when his clothes are on. something i can’t imagine being said about you unless you were wearing my little sister’s ballet costume. she’s 6 years old and about your size
that being said, i dont think anyone with your stats has the right to be tossing the insult ‘bitch’ around to anyone just yet. maybe once you’ve gained, oh i dunno, 100 friggin lbs?
grow up. or keep your posting to GAL

Pretty lame, huh?
It seems like every time esk posts pictures of his arms somebody manages to call him out for it or makes a sarcastic comment. Somebody just give the guy some fucking props? He deserves it more than alot do on this site. I think THAT is the lame part.
And you can tell me to grow up all you want but you just sunk to my ‘level’.
And I did not call him a bitch. I said bitch tits. And besides that, my stats make no difference with being able to see that this guy has no room to say anything at all about Esk’s arms.
I wasn’t saying Hoss was wrong for stating you have to do direct arm work for bigger arms. I just feel he has no place to say Esk’s arms aren’t ‘big’ when Esk’s arms and Esk in general looks a shit load better than Hoss.
Pecs are now considered bitch tits? Neato.

dude. the thread was created to state that if you want to get BIG ARMS, you need to do DIRECT ARM WORK. this isn’t a ‘my arm is bigger than yours or whatever’ thread
short hoss is a perfect example of how doing direct arm work…gasp! makes your arms bigger.
no one is dogging on esk about his arms. he’s got great development, but like i said earlier, he will most likely have to start incorperating direct arm work if he wants to continue to see imporvements.
you’re like every other short mofo that i run into at work, always trying to pick a damn fight.
take a chill pill, as well as the advice from this thread, and maybe you’ll end up with something more impressive than 12" arms yourself
I’ve never disagreed with doing direct arm work, it has made me wonder however…
A large portion of this site suggests “Starting Strength” for beginners such as myself. Where/what would you guys add in direct arm work there, if at all?
Not arguing anything with this post, just curious what you guys with obviously larger than my 15" arms would suggest.

I’m pretty sure Esk already does direct arm work if I remember correctly from the DC thread. He was just being sarcastic?
Second of all, if you are so annoyed with how I act, why do you continually throw in little things like “and maybe you’ll end up with something more impressive than 12” arms yourself"?
That’s any better?
And oh yes. I am like every other short mofo. All I do is want to pick fights.
And fine. I take back the bitch tits comment. It’s just the lighting. Not gyno. The one side of his chest looked pointy. What can I say?
I’m a moron. Woooooooo. Everybody already knew that though. And I don’t care. I’ve made more progress than many, too. This is when I started weight training.
EDIT: Sister’s room… not mine… hah… ok… I’m gay guys. I’m gay.

You don’t know the difference between gyno and a shadow?
Why do guys like you make so much noise? We wouldn’t know how retarded you are if you kept quiet.
Nope not that shadow. His right pec (the one farthest away from the camera) looks like it points/slopes out (much like bad gyno) in that picture near his nipple. Could be the picture or me, cause I’m retarded, ya know?
And the reason I made noise is because I like esk and feel bad that he doesn’t seem to get many props when others who I feel should not get them , get them the most. His arms look better than 95% of the people who get props the most.
I don’t care how anybody else sees me… but I care how others see respectable and admirable people. Which Esk happens to be.
That itself doesn’t make me retarded though, right? It’s the way I go about it that makes me retarded. I’m like totally uberly retarded. My IQ is like 75. And I’m the size of a 6 year old girl apparently. And I’d fit into a ballet dress (Holymac’s dream come true).
lol. how old are you dude?
No gyno bud (But I ain’t lean, either).
BTW, Esk has done good so far. If he adds direct arm work, he’ll have even bigger gunz (hence the thread). Didn’t mean to insult anyone.
I’m afraid to answer this.
But the ‘lol’ gives me a sense of security…
false sense of security?
Perhaps…
I’m 18.
Why do you ask?
j/w
Jesus, i step a way and come back and you fuckers are killing each other. This thread is about the importance of direct arm work, shit seeing these lil’ guy pics makes me want to bust out my nerdy glasses 140lb picture from less few years ago…
hold on guys…
both of of you guys and mac have gotten a lot bigger, shit X posted a pic of him back in the 150lb range, he might have been like eight however.
fuck…i cannot for the life of me find the album, i’ll dig it out this weekend, i looked like Gandhi after a cut.
i belive X posted his hs pic.
yeah, i could of totally beaten him up back then
