It all depends. How lean are we talking?[/quote]
i dunno like pro bodybuilder lean?
haha personally if i had 20+ inch guns and i had a solid 230-260lbs of muscle i wouldnt give a damn if i was 15-18% and could barely see my abs haha[/quote]
Pro bodybuilder lean? Not gonna happen.
10% bodyfat lean with a full 6 pack showing at 5’8 260? I’d have to see it to believe it.
15 to 18% bodyfat 1t 260? I could believe that.
All above are natural as you stated.

i really dont think youd need to hit 260lbs @ 68" tall to get 20" arms. maybe 220-230, and yea i believe its possible natty. anything is possible.

LOL!
Sorry man, had to throw something recent in there to balance out the bitchiness. [/quote]
Yea good job getting that back on track.
Since I can’t actually comment in T-Cell, I’ll just let you know here your progress is great.[/quote]
Same, id like to be able to post in that thread but since i cant, ill say it here. awesome physique, close to my height and same age so i gotta say Way is definitely the most motivational member for me on these boards
Way is hella motivating.
I still feel small because
A) I went to the Arnold and saw some big mofos there
B) My lifting partners are 5’8" and 235lb and 6’1" and 230lbs.
That’s also my greatest causes of motivation though.
Though I get a lot of motivation from the logs of some of the posters here, gregron, bug, ebomb, and beast just to name a few.
More and more competition bodybuilders are training in my gym, I feel small… lol

lol possible, but not likely
I feel small because:
-My arms are small
-My pressing numbers are shit
-The rest of my numbers are quite shit
192 relatively lean at 5ft10 isn’t even that small, but I feel small because I’m nowhere near my potential size.

Yep. I was thinking of 260
wow, i entered this forum interested in what sort of guys (in terms of size) felt they were “small”. I didnt expect to get guys at 6’1, 260lbs saying they felt that way. I regret it now, i’m 5’11, 163lbs and 13% bf and i felt alright until you guys burst my buble! cheers guys…(hint of sarcasm)

This is why you use it as motivation, but compare yourself to yourself or you’ll never be happy.
If you stay focussed, you’ll be able to gain a good solid ~20lbs each year until it drops off to around 5-10lbs/year.
These guys didn’t do it all in 1 year…unless your names waylander (but he puts creatine in his socks) ![]()
One day I’m sure you’ll achieve “holy fuck does he eat childern”, those of us who will always be stuck with “holy fuck does he eat malnourished kittens” will feel small by comparison.
Hopefully this isn’t Hijacking the thread. If so…sorry.
Does anyone have the opposite of this, where you just feel overly large? I’m 6’3-4" but am big naturally (36" across the shoulders, not terribly heavily muscled 52" chest). I’m still trying to muscle up, figure if I can’t beat it I’ll go with it.
I’ll always feel small cause I’m not that broad and I’m 5’9. There are people my height that look almost twice as wide as me - and its in the bone structure. It truly sucks. Nothing I can do about that.
But then again, nothing will stop me improving my own body, cause thats all I can do. Its stupid to compare your build with a totally different one. Self improvement and progress are the only two things that push me these days. I’ve gained 30lbs, and I’ve got another 20 to go before I consider leaning out.
I’m sure when I get there, I’ll feel as small as I do now, but I’ll know for a fact how vast my improvements are and to me, thats the most important thing to remember. Reaching your goals.
Jay Cutler was at a seminar I went to a few weeks ago. He measured his arms cold at 22 inches. 22 inches and he’s in off season mode, although leaner than most people.
Lol at 20+ inch respectable arms as a natty at his height. That is not happening.
We’ve all heard of Arthur Jones measuring Arnold’s arm while cold at slightly below 20 inches.
Reality check is needed for some people.
weight lifting has no ending point, there is always something to gain. i think people on here think they look small because they forget where they started.
i think back in the day i use to struggle benching 85 pounds and now i can hand clean and jerk 135. shit is tight
I actually have started to believe that the solution to almost every problem in my life (social, work or woman related) will be overcome easier if I can just get 5lb’s bigger, and 1-2% body fat lower…it aint healthy but its how I think and life could be a lot worse haha
lol i dunno i think 20 inch arms at 5’8 is very possible natural, and if you dont think so sucks for you because thats probably what is keeping you from getting there

Yeah, about that. A_B has surpassed 19" and is knocking on the 20" door … but he is around 6’1".
