Arm measurements: flexed and unflexed

Hey guys, another noob question:

When you guys talk about your arm measurements, are you talking about flexed or unflexed? And also post your flexed and unflexed measurements please.

I'm 11.4 inches relaxed arm held out in front and 12.8 flexed. My unflexed used to be 9.5 inches so I've gained 2 inches on them.

Surprised you're not bigger given the numbers in your sig for lifts.

I think my arms are disproportionately small according to this chart, i have the arms of a 60kg person. http://www.plgearonline.com/cart/index. ... oc&docId=5

I haven't done any bicep isolation work for abou three months after getting into powerlifting. Edit: I have started doing arm isolation exercises again

Your arms will grow, but weight is needed also, a good 90kg's for some proper measurements.

The two things that made my arms grow were: Curling over 60kg's on an EZ bar with perfect form, 'cheat' curling 80kg's and dips with more than three 20kg plates.

It took around three years to get these lifts, but the journey was worth it.

His lifts dont determine his muscle mass, I did a 115kg bench at 67kg body weight raw at 21 years old and my arms were 14.6 and a

150 squat at 74kg's with 23 inch thighs, 22 years of age.

At 24 I did a 164kg squat at 103kg's with 27.4 inch thighs, so the carry over was minimal.

I gained the weight using the Weider principles

So strength = muscle mass

And in this post, strength != muscle mass.

Contradictory advice anyone?

What do measurements really mean on the internet without anything like photos to show what it looks like. I was just looking at some fat bitch and her thighs were 6 FEET around. That doesn't necessarily mean that Iris Kyle has to watch her back.

she better if that woman gets hungry lol

What he means to say is that you need to have a base level of strength before you can say your arms are too small, like people who bitch about their legs being to small but only squat 80kg, your arms aren't going to be big if your still only curling 10kg DBs.. (Not saying you are btw, just an example :lol: )
