bogogoproper arm routine but mostly genetics
Genetics
AnonI just had my ol lady measure my bi/tri, havnt been to the gym in 3 days so no pump, 21 3/4" L, 22" R. Im right hand dominant but stronger on my left side. Biology is strange. Ill measure tomorrow and see if a pump makes a measurement difference. But then again, would 22" arms be considered big in todays bodybuilding?
-All homo
Yep Full On..lol......
Id love to see a 22 can you post a pick ;)
I'd love to see a pic also
AnonYeah, ill post a pic tonight after work.
-All homo

AnonPosted the pics, ill get my wife to help me tonight to keep the tape from slipping off when i flex.
-all homo
RustyhookerAgree!!
Beast!
22s are considered big across the entire universe!
(full homo)
ClassyChassisYou can inject into your arms. I used to inject mct oil into both heads of the biceps and medial and lateral heads of the triceps. Lateral and posterior delts. I was using daily injections of tren and prop and.just added the sterile mct/BA to the mix. 2cc in each head, rotating. Go deep nto the muscle and don't go crazy like that fool Valentino. Pretty sure pro bodybuilders have been site injecting into their arms since at least the 60's. They also used to inject Esiclene into lagging body parts before a show for its localized swelling effect. Especially calves. Hurts like hell.
Now I could be wrong, but it worked for me and I didn't look stupid like some of these idiots. On the biceps look for the peak and inject there. It's higher than you think. I don't add oil anymore but I still inject into my upper body.
Here are some examples of what I consider suspicious. Arnold, Beckles, Robinson, Demayo.




Go back and check out flex wheeler.
It is so obvious know that his shoulders and arms were OILED to the hilt and yet he is "the sultan of symmetry"
Not knocking his career by any means but when I go back and take a good look at old mags or online pics of them it really get a little bothersome to see how much OIL abuse was going on and how it was the "generation of pure physiques" to stand by.
Progress will always occur in various ways and as much as I respect those past, present and future I still won't ever want to look like the "classique physiques" of yesterday.
Interesting...I have been training for 30+ years and no matter what I tried I could never get that bicep peak...size yes...peak ...no. ..and it does kind of look unnatural, now that you point it out...or maybe I'm jealous.. :-)
Never thought I would think this but Beckles looks the best out of these pics.
ClassyChassisYeah, the shape is unnatural. And Robinsons lateral triceps head defies the laws of anatomy. Lol...
Robinson does look suspect Beckles has different sized bicep heads just not as pronounced as say Boyer Coe.
I would like to see before and after pics of your arms if you have any but I must say I've been doing glute injections since 1980 and I still have a white boy ass...If it's not synthol injections I'm skeptical. I've been wrong before.
ClassyChassisHaha. No I don't have any pics but I just used sterilized/filtered mct oil w 2%BA. I think Synthol had some kind of weird stuff added to make it last longer. Maybe collagen?
The trick is to use short esters so you're injecting ED or EOD. And to go deep inside the muscle. I used 23x1.5 and buried it. It's no different from guys using gso or whatever to cut gear but if you are injecting 4cc a day into your arms and shoulders they are going to get bigger. Guaranteed. Now you know the secret to big arms. You don't have to take my word for it. It's easy enough to prove to yourself.
And yes, Albert Beckles was famous for his biceps peak, but c'mon, biceps just aren't shaped like that. As far as the ass thing, there is a theory of localized effect, probably having to do w stretching the fascia. When I was coming up I was taught that you might as well put it somewhere where it will do some good.
I have done 1cc of prop in both arms before for a while. I felt like it was just inflammation that cause them to look bigger. It's a virgin muscle and hurts at first but you get used to it.
ClassyChassisWhen I say 4cc a day, there was one ml prop plus one ml mct going in one side and one ml tren ace plus one ml mct going in the other side. Whatever head I was hitting that day.
I'll try it next cycle.
ClassyChassisSure. Just remember you have an inner and an outer bicep head. Use both. Flex in the mirror and note where the peak is. Here's a link to a post I did on pinning delts.

Everyone is saying genetics. I'm going to thank my parents for having shit genetics when it comes to arms. Thank you everyone.
Arthur Jones figured out years ago that the longer the muscle and shorter the tendon the higher potential for growth. When you make a muscle if you can insert 1 finger or none between the forearm and bicep your in good shape. Two fingers or more is not good. Looking at many of the pros I beleive this to be true.
Genetics is the key here .. training does play a role but a small one. IMO .
Id say consistency with a sprinkle of genetics - genetics doesnt have a speed limit for your arms
consistency is key
if you let the various thngs that want to work against you, do so, then arms grow slow
Ive been stuck at 18 for yonks, but consistency and smart choices were my real problem
Genetics somewhat too, with long limbs, 18 look shit, so you need to inflate more I guess
but genetics aint the biggy. just look at the big lads when younger, nothing genetically special about them. they all wake up and take a shit in the morning the same way too. Its the basics that matter
90% genetics 10% right workout routine, imo.
One of the biggest genetic freaks (regarding huge arms) passed away yesterday :(
Genes. But some guys look great with 18 inch arms.
I would be happy with 20 inches
Few men can grow 20 in arms with low bodyfat. Mike Mentzers arms were 18.5 inches in contest shape. At his height that's huge. I'd wager 80 percent of the guys on this forum don't have 18 in arms.
Nail on the head there...with LOW bodyfat.
I've seen many brag about 21+ guns but when you have that much fat around the muscle IMO it does not count.
Thought process for arms are like a dick for most of us. No matter how big genetics gave us, we still want to figure out how to get that sum bitch bigger.
25" guns and 13" scholong or bust! LMAO
"Giving zero fucks on whether that is takin' homo or not...I mean seriously, its just a damn comment"
Exactly you’ll notice Oz below says he had 18 in arms and it’s no big deal. He’s in good shape but does he look like Mike Mentzer? The only guy to ever get a perfect score? There’s nothing hypothetical about that. It’s reality.
Obviously that is an hypothetical wager...how do you prove/disprove it? From reading so many posts on eroids by guys who claim to be huge, I am surprised that 18" is anything to even be discussing...I was 18" at age 35...I'm now in my 60s and still have 18" arms...I don't consider that to be very big, I want to be bigger...some of it is genetics, most of it is consistent training.
It's not so much the size that matters as much as the shape and insertions. Some guys look amazing with 17" arms, others have to build 20" arms just to look normal. it's just motivation to work even harder.
I agree.
Very true
We can't all be freaks but anybody can have a great build through diet and exercise. I idolize certain pros but at the end of the day it's what I can do with what I have. Bodybuildings the greatest sport and you can do it your whole life. Lou Ferrigno,Jack Lalane and Clarence Bass. Those guys never lost it...
Me too. I'll race ya there.
1 inch to go...
Exactly and your a big guy.
Ha, I see myself as a medium sized guy. But I will be. When I hit 270 I'll officially be ok with calling myself a big guy. For 6 feet plus you gotta at least be over 250
Typical bodybuilding dysmorphia lol. You're pretty damned big. 270 is gargantuan.
Right? We're all twisted
You looked great in your last picture. I only remember the good ones.
Makin me blush Sam. I give karma for compliments lol
It will be forever for me lol
I have 20.5 at the moment broski! But my calves are taking forever to grow like I want. My arms get blown up the first 2 mins of any workout while my caves enjoy the watch during and leg day movement, it takes 10 sets and then my veins show on caves. I don't get it, fml
BFR and intermittent stretching
it'll fcuk your calves up
Calves are genetic from what I read...My arms are decent my ankles are small but my calves are boulders. Do 4 movements like any other muscle group and they will grow.
